I'm going to guess nothing. The "controversy" has no real weight and Beck tends to focus on bigger, macro issues. But who knows, Beck is Beck - he may start talking about M&Ms...

Yeah, but has he even acknowledged that Rand Paul won the nomination? Seeing as he's the most successful 9.12 / Tea Party candidate to date, you think it would be worth a mention, perhaps even an interview?

Beck is just bizarre.

+1

I like a lot of Beck's message but his personality and some of his connections are a little odd

I live in NY and I got an email from one of our C4L members who is invited to go on the 9/12 shows everytime cause she started the NYC 9/12 meetup (I got to go once) saying that Beck is looking for Black Libertarians to come on a special show this week. Sounds like he's going to take the issue on.

Has he even mentioned Rand once since the primary?

Personally, I'm glad Beck isn't saying anything about Rand. I can't think of any positive effect his words could have. And I'm sure most of us would find fault with anything he might say. Keeping his mouth shut now is the first thing he's ever done that makes me dislike him slightly less.

Beck mentioned Rand today briefly, said he agreed with Rand on abolishing the Fed and the Dept. of Education and brought up the fact that he barely ever even talks about Rand.

That was brief, and only on radio. On the radio, you hear how much influence Stu has...

My take: Beck and his crew (probably more his crew than Beck himself) don't particularly like Rand or Ron. They wrongly believe some bad things about them, but since they agree on so many issues, they stay away. If Rand was running against someone they supported, they would put the hit on him. As long as he is running against someone they like less, they won't say anything.

Beck makes me nervous, so silence I can handle.
