I love the last line of the 1994 campaign flyer above where Teddy is against requiring the Congress to live by the laws they pass. LOL.

> This IS the Huckster’s “Dean Scream.” <

Or it’s analogous to George Romney’s statement that he was brainwashed on a trip to Vietnam?

Or maybe equivalent to Ed Muskie’s public tears over criticism of his wife?

Or maybe Ted Kennedy’s interview with Roger Mudd?

Or even Gary Hart’s picture with Donna Rice?

Or whatever it was that Patsy Schroder did? (I forget!)

Or some other famous meltdown in the history of presidential primaries?

Huckabee from the CNN video: “I told my staff I do not want it to be run. If it is run at all, it will only be until the stations can get it off of their schedules.” Slick

I’m tellin’ ya the guy studied at the feet of BJ in Arkansas and is portraying himself as some conservative Christian. It is beyond cynical.

“Or whatever it was that Patsy Schroder did? (I forget!)”

As a former constituent of Patsy I can attest that every moment in public office amounted to a Dean Scream moment!

Yep.

And tomorrow: “My campaign is really disappointed with Des Moines channel 7 for its gross incompetence in failing to pull the ad we paid for and asked them not to run.”

LOL. When the truth hits resort to old photos, youtube clips and discredited propaganda? Good one.

That has been your problem all along - ignoring facts and the actual record. When deciding which candidate to endorse, conservatives have taken the time to actually go past the nonsense and a majority of them have found a man who has lived a conservative life, governed conservatively in Massachusetts and has the campaign platform which most closely aligns with the GOP platform.

All the old flyers, photos and posters in the world won't change that.

You Joe Isuzu Romneybots are becoming a caricature of yourselves. Do you have a clue how ridiculous you sound ?

A reaction from a member of the press corps:

“We’ve all seen some very cheap stunts over the years, but they’re not usually this cheap and not this transparent. Reporters covering the campaign aren’t idiots, and Huckabee just insulted their intelligence.”

It may become irrelevant over the next few weeks. Let them talk, it’s fun.
