WHY GLENN BECK IS GOING TO WIN THE BECK/KRISTOL FEUD ON THE RIGHT

Joe Klein, Steve Benen, BooMan, and a lot of other people wonder whether Glenn Beck is wearing out his welcome on the right, especially now that he's feuding with Bill Kristol, who's criticized Beck's nutty theory that Islamists and left-wingers are working together to destabilize the entire world. I've said before that I think Beck will survive, and I still think that's true. Here's why:

Those are the cable news ratings from last Friday.

Please note the fact that Glenn Beck's show had more viewers at 5:00 P.M. that CNN, Headline News, and MSNBC combined.

And please note that he does this outside prime time, and no one at CNN or MSNBC gets 2 millions viewers in prime time.

Case closed. He's staying.
