Rush Limbaugh, without mentioning Glenn Beck by name, was not happy about Beck's keynote address to CPAC. Rush played clips today of his speech last year at CPAC. Rush, in his speech, focused on stopping Obama and Reid and Pelosi. Beck, on the other hand, seemed to attack Republicans and Democrats alike. Rush believes the majority of American people "get" it, and are more motivated than ever to stop the agenda of socialists. Beck seemed to imply that Americans need to be educated, and do not yet "get it," and that he distrusts Republicans as much as he distrusts Democrats.
I think that Rush is worried that conservatives will join a third party movement, thereby giving Democrats four more years in the White House. Rush believes there is a "conservative ascendency" within the Republican party, and that those who are leading that movement need to be thanked and supported, not scolded or mocked for being Republicans.

I remember Perot, the Conservative Party in NY and others. They all hurt Republicans. Fortunately, a once in a lifetime event happened which was the entrance of Ronald Reagan. If not for him we'd still be hurting if not worse.
(I hope the word verification word psybo doesn't reflect on me....)
Yes Rush and Beck are at odds about this as I am conflicted. I voted for Perot myself. So people blame me for Clinton. I only claim the first term after that not my fault. But with choices like McCain, it's time to consider a third party. I'm not sure the Repubs are interested in being all that conservative anymore. They sure didn't act that way the last time out. So I find myself on Beck's side instead of Rush's...an odd place to be I can assure you.
Both Glenn and Rush are too smart to allow anyone to pit one against the other.
