The Spin on the Beck Cult rally
is driving me crazy. Please media, the people who showed up for that spectacle, using God and the troops, DID NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA. Please, stop the SPIN.

1. Of course they didn't vote for Obama. This was the first "non-political" political...
rally in our nation's history.

Very Orwellian in that way.

3. Anyone who tunes into Beck as a result of this rally will see his true nature
He's not going to be able to keep the masquerade going beyond his next radio / TV show.

As soon as the casually curious tune into him they are either going to be repulsed or they're going to agree with him. Those that agree with him wouldn't be voting for a Dem candidate in November (rally or no rally).

He may get a few more listeners as a result of this thing but he's not going to expand his reach as his normal rhetoric doesn't come off as remotely reasonable or moderate.
