UPDATE: According to Digg, the video was made popular 4 minutes ago, at 12:11 PM - approximately 31 minutes after this diary was written, but over 4 hours after it was posted. In that time it grabbed on the order of 63 diggs. Hopefully being made 'popular' will be enough to cause momentum to carry it to the top. Thanks to everyone who helped out!

Here's our success in action. This diary was posted at minute #235 after it was posted on Digg, and it made the front page at minute #271:
Here is the link: http://digg.com/...
I picked that link for two reasons - first, since it already has 70 diggs, it is much closer to getting on the front page than the fresher ones with ~7 or so.
I know pile of people read this site, and based on the number of diggs our stories get, very few actually take the extra steps to promote material on social networking sites.
Sometimes it happens for us - DailyKos articles have made the Top 10 on Digg before, and it always brings a smile to my face. But it rarely seems to be as a direct result of the action of users here.
We all did so much during the campaign - left houses, knocked on doors, sent money to campaigns with little promise it would make a difference. Can we know spend 10 seconds signing up for a site that will spread a crucial message to thousands?
Beck and his guest's traitorous rant is dangerous and needs to be seen by as many people as possible. Digg isn't a self contained ecosphere: You don't just win the digg crowed when it pops up there, you win everyone they show it to, and everyone on down the chain. But the key, much as on dailykos, is getting the votes to allow it to hit the top of the page as so many users only browse the most popular stories.
Spend a few minutes this afternoon and help reveal Beck for what he really is!
