Mary Ann, true, I watch Beck every day and can attest to his influence. He has been very successful selling his view of history and reality to uneducated people. I have a "redneck" email friend in Ohio who likes Beck and Limbaugh. Joe thinks Bob Letcher was a set up who doesn't have PD and George Soros/commie liberals were probably behind it all to make the baggers look bad.. Beck claims to be an independent conservative, not a Republican, but agrees with the GOP in its goal of destroying Obama. He leads the charge. Beck can't quite call him a "nigger" yet, so he claims he is a Nazi/Socialist/Communist/Maoist/Stalinist. Fair or unfair, Bob's tormenters are part of the ugly face of the GOP today, like Limbaugh and Palin.
