Not knowing much about Massa, I think that Rush, Beck, et al, were excited and encouraged by WHAT he said and not HIM personally. I think they (Rush & company) found an demorat who buttressed their arguments with passion and verve and could be easily understood by the public at large.
As to Mr. Massa, the charges seem VERY convenient for Odumbo and his gang, and serve as a visible warning to others who might “stray” from the socialist path.
More information on Massa is needed before I am willing to render a verdict on him or the response from the conservative side.
Glenn went crazy-nuts over the guy after listening to Massa's angry rant, Beck demanding to know "Who is this guy?" and proclaiming Massa is just the kind of politician he wants as a refounder. The thing is, Massa decries Sunday how Washington can't just shove things down the throat of the American people in regard to the health care reform bill, however, isn't he the very same politician just a short few months ago was telling his own constituents that he would vote against their will, even if it was 90%, he would vote for "what he feels is in their best interests"?? I want Glenn to ask this guy to square the contradiction, until I hear someone ask Massa about this, I'm not buying his *patriotism*.

Same with me -- I totally accept that Rahm and the White House, 0bama admin would do anything and everything to destroy him ... but then, why allow them the win? Why resign??
