Levin is worse than useless
Yeah? How so? Better to elaborate than to make unless comments
What's the point? What will it accomplish? If he wanted to do something useful he should challenge Boehner to a duel, pistols at sunrise
Levin doesn't have "viewers" and he does a lot more than host his show. He fights these liberal nutjobs in court
Hmmm, here I always thought that right wing fanatics sat and stared at the radio when Levine talked....my mistake and my poor use of the word.
The reason it is a bad idea is what happens when your guy is in office? Do you want the same lack of respect just because the left wing hates his agenda? There are plenty of ways to show solidarity but this ain't the best. And that is coming from a conservative, true, who likes listening to Levin, Beck and Rush, but I don't stare at the radio.
You must, you said "viewers" not me. People didn't seem to mind when Obama berated the supreme court justices as they sat in front of him. You're just way too civil. You can sit there and clap for Obama as he ignores our Constitution. Me? I'd pass.

Face the facts, doing so could backfire and one thing that the right does not need right now is bad publicity. The democrats are shooting themselves in the foot every stinking day we don't need to screw that up with a pointless in your face maneuver which will been seen as being racist, and you know it will. Too big of chance.
Obama was wrong in what he did with the SCOTUS but he did so because he is a novice and not really very well mannered. And you saw how the press handled it, pooh poohed as always. But Wilson shouts lie and the press is all over him for days.
We on the right need to find a Reagan and find him fast. We need to stand in solidarity on platform, not a pointless insulting gesture. Just my opinion.
It would be a bad move for the GOP and here's why.
This concept comes from the far right camp of the GOP, most people who identify with the GOP aren't far right. The target voter that the GOP needs to attract are Independents or Moderates and huge majority of these people aren't far right. A majority of Americans viewed the GOP has being too extreme in a Pew poll about a year ago. That was probably based on some pretty crazy thing that some Tea Party folks said or did. (FYI, I'm not saying all Tea Party are that nuts, just as not all far left folks are that nuts)
If the GOP is hoping to win big in this years election, they can't afford to look/act extreme.
Now I know that USMB is over represented by the far right when comparing USMB's demographics and the country's demographics. So it may seem like a good idea for a majority of right wing posters here on USMB but in reality, it'd be a move that'd probably offend a much higher percentage of voters who don't watch cable news (which is a huge majority of Americans).
I do agree with this mostly. But I will say that the next candidate that the republicans put up better not be another moderate closet liberal. We tried that twice and lost. Of course we won with Bush so maybe it was just Obama.
For a minute there, I thought we we going to witness an argument between two USMB nutters.

"Find a Reagan" is easier said than done. when you find him let me know.

Maybe we all aren't just brain-dead clones, with no independent thoughts in their heads, who follow Obama like sheep. In the end conservatives are all united against people like Obama

I'd say that the GOP could do better with candidates to the right of Romney/McCain but it can't be too far right.
Romney lost the Moderate vote 56-44 per two exit polls. His 47% comment bombed and I think his early primary stances hurt him when he was appealing to the base. If you remember, the Dems used those early stances against him in their ads.
McCain lost votes because Palin went over the comfort line with the middle with some of her more outrageous comments (and his comment about the US's "sound economy" was the final nail).
The GOP needs a consistent message with continuity that appeals to a bigger audience and not just Republicans. They haven't done that well of late.
I think what we are seeing with Levin is a bubble. To keep his viewers happy he needs to ratchet up the rhetoric. So he will ratchet it up until he leaves conservatives behind and only has the extreme right wing as an audience. Then the bubble will burst and he will once again come back down to Earth.

anything would be better than another long-winded lying speech of deceitful rubbish and drivel by Oblather...
we really need to start voicing our differences on the national stage....but i doubt the Rs have it together enough to pull it off...

I get a little tired of hearing about the 47 percent comment. He was right and his saying so did not cost him their votes. McCain lost because he is McCain and the left, my leg tingles, press was fully in Obama's corner. Palin did say some things controversial but the press made mountains out of mole hills seldom does the VP cost an election. Meanwhile they pretty much let Biden slide on his "clean articulate" comment about Obama.
