“…getting some mainstream notice on Chris Matthews’ show,…”

I don’t think “mainstream” is really an accurate characterization of Chris Matthews. Matthews is clearly a hard-line leftist who doesn’t have much tolerance for ideas that drift toward the center.

I’m not defending Beck. I don’t watch him. But it’s probably rooted in the same type of jealousy Matthews has for Beck as Olbermann did for O’Reilly. When they’re getting shellacked in the ratings night after night, they tend to target the top dog.

…and undoubtedly Matthews is just as pissed off at Centrist and Republican voters right now as well.
