Poll Surprise: Glenn Beck Is Almost As Admired As Nelson Mandela?

At the end of every year, Gallup asks Americans which men and women they most admire. Today, they released their results, a number of which are surprising: for instance, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton narrowly beat Sarah Palin as the Most Admired Woman. President Barack Obama easily won the Most Admired Man title, with 30% of mentions. But there’s a new and noteworthy addition to the list: Glenn Beck, who came in fourth place.
