“I didn’t raise taxes in Arkansas, I raised hope.”

Which slick, disingenuous political phony said this?
a) Bill Clinton
b) Mike Huckabee

Hard to tell the difference, isn’t it?

I like Huckabee, so bear with me as I say that if Mike didn’t want to get stones thrown at him he should not have entered politics. It is a battlefield and a place only for those who can take it. Mike needs to be one of those who can take it and persevere.

You are out of your mind. The MSM LOVES The Huckster.

It’s the Conservative media and blogs that see right though him.

Aww, we have ourselves here a poor Husksterite.

If your candidate could be trusted for any of his more conservative points, people like me might respond more favorably.

As it is, he is “Clinton-lite.”

I don't suppose it occurs to the author that Huck's basically recycling the populist platform of the pre-WWII National-Socialist movement.

They won lots of elections...

To remain ignorant of history is to remain forever a child who'll be led by whoever sounds most pleasing or convincing.

Bud Light presents:

"REAL MEN OF GENIUS"

...(Real men of genius)

Today we salute you, Mr. Mike Huckabee paid FR campaign shill!

...(Mr. Mike Huckabee paid FR campaign shill)

What does a liberal Republican do when he is afraid to face grass roots conservatives himself? He pays his coffee and errand boy minimum wage to do it for him

...(skim milk with three sweet and lows)

Sitting in a cubicle at campaign headquarters you search Conservative websites like the NY Times, Washington Post, LA Times, Salon, CNN and Daily Kos looking for favorable articles about the Huckster to post on FR

...(oooh, here's one from DU!)

Armed with nothing but talking points from Hucks' website, you attempt to convince conservatives that your candidate is not a Christian socialist or a pro-life Democrat

...(Jesus would want amnesty for illegals)

When FReepers say Huck is a fiscal liberal, algore loving environmental wacko, open border amnesty pusher, Jimmy Carter foreign policy appeaser, nanny state smoker banner you provide the brilliant original response...a link to his campaign website

...(copy, paste, copy, paste)

Conservatives? We don't need no stinkin' Conservatives!

...(Highly overrated)

All we need is a leftist who is pro-life, has an R next to his name, and talks about Jesus.

...(Praise the Lord!)

So crack open an ice cold Bud Light, oh Karl Rove of the blogosphere, because when a FReeper runs for office, we'll be calling you...

...(Mr. Mike Huckabee paid FR campaign shill)

The article has an interesting perspective on why Arkansas needed more tax-based infrastructure...something that FReepers who keep accusing Huck of being a tax & spend liberal never bother to mention.

I don't think this article gives us anything different (really) to review him on immigration-wise. But I'd be interested in hearing from the Fredheads how it is that their candidate has not promised to raise taxes, but Huck has, yet Huck is hit up on that issue & Fred isn't.

WSJ;

Betsy Hagan, Arkansas director of the conservative Eagle Forum and a key backer of his early runs for office, was once "his No. 1 fan." She was bitterly disappointed with his record. "He was pro-life and pro-gun, but otherwise a liberal," she says. "Just like Bill Clinton he will charm you, but don't be surprised if he takes a completely different turn in office."

Phyllis Schlafly, president of the national Eagle Forum, is even more blunt. "He destroyed the conservative movement in Arkansas, and left the Republican Party a shambles," she says. "Yet some of the same evangelicals who sold us on George W. Bush as a 'compassionate conservative' are now trying to sell us on Mike Huckabee."

Good observations, Dan.

What makes things worse is Sean Hannity sat by silently while he saw what his co-host was doing and said nothing.

Pretty indicative, when the "conservative" and liberal team up, to defeat someone who happens to be an outspoken, Christian conservative who holds our primary, Declaration principles in their proper plsce.
