An Inside Look at Glenn Beck's Inauguration Night 'Misfits Ball

On Monday evening, Glenn Beck marked the inauguration of President Obama, by hosting an array of guests who would likely never find themselves on the receiving end of an actual invitation to the presidential inaugural ball. Complete with a satirical "red carpet," entertainment and banquet tables adorned with center pieces and guests clad in black ties, Beck's "misfits ball" offered viewers a taste of what a presidential inauguration might look like if it met a celebrity-roast.

Sen. Rick Santorum, Utah Mayor Mia Love, Dana Loesch, historian David Barton and others participated in the event to discuss politics and and the prospect of moving forward as conservatives and libertarians in 2013. Topics ran the gamut, from Obamacare to entitlements, religion to business and of course, the future of the Republican Party, which Santorum does not believe will be changing anytime soon.
