A caller fears that Glenn Beck is advocating a third party. Here’s the exchange:
Beck says that he is about the truth, no matter which party it comes from. In principal I agree with that, but it’s like an addiction – you can’t just walk away from big government in one step. It’s going to take time, along with fostering a culture of freedom and small government. We must take back the republican party, and Beck feels the only way to do this is to become willing to lose at the polls, casting your vote in principal forgetting about the parties. The problem with that is that we are so close to losing our country to extreme leftists who are fomenting that culture, that we can’t afford to vote for a third party right now, even if they proclaim the closest thing we can get to the truth. We MUST vote for the lesser of two evils right now, even if it means the smaller version of big government. Third parties will plunge us off the cliff.
