(Conflict of interest vanity) Huckabee using his FNC spot to undermine 2012 rival Palin!
The usually responsible Fox News Channel | July 24, 2009

Posted on 07/24/2009 5:21:24 PM PDT by Cringing Negativism Network

OK sorry for the vanity, but I'm darn frustrated at what I just saw on my favorite channel - FNC.

I've been a daily, loyal viewer since they came online and first begin their uphill struggle against then-dominant CNN. No fair weather viewer here. When I'm not watching FNC, usually I've got Fox Business Channel in the background. So it takes a lot for Fox to tee me off like this. But I'm plenty teed off:

(Embarrasingly obvious) Republican 2012 candidate wannabe Mike Huckabee, is filling in for BOR today.

So far so good. Huckabee works for Fox, fair and square. But he leads his guest spot with - a smear at Sarah Palin!

How does the (embarrasingly obvious) Hucakabee start the show? Taking note of the weekend Governor Palin decides to change direction - starting this weekend - to narrate she is "losing popularity".

BUNK!!!

You are a silly man.. I supported McCain and Palin, enjoyed supporting Sarah, but supported McCain because he was all we had. Romney was way out of the picture when Sarah Palin came on the scene.. I am tired of all this irrational emotionalism you silly people spew out about Romney. Romney had nothing to do with Sarah Palins efforts to win the Vice Presidency, as I remember it.. Sarah seem to lose support in the McCain camp first. And now Poor Sarah quit her Governor's Job, because she is weak, I hated to hear it. But that is just the way it is.. just like the fact that McCain was just too damn Old to win the Presidency.

Maybe just maybe it is Sarah's fault that she lost her footing on the National Political stage when she quit her Governorship, and AH's like Huckabee get jobs on News programs to spew their stupidness. I do not know what Huckabee spews..as I quit listening to TV News. but I know it is all horse manure.

Figures lie and Liars figure.. Sarah can not win the Presidency, she can not even pay her bills now, isn’t that why she quit the governorship. Rolls eyes. I need more than just fluff to run for President.

Her achievement are far more than Mittwit.
She has more knowledge on energy, National Security, economy than the guy who stayed safe in France while others fought in Viet nam.

MittWit has 5 sons, not one has served in the military.
Palin’s son is in Iraq, serving his country.

We disagree then.

My take is that Mitt Romney’s people saw Sarah Palin as an existential threat to his political future the day McCain nominated her - and immediately attacked.

In effect, allying themselves with Obama.

Romney is the reason we have a Marxist president right now.

No less.

Once again just a bunch of irrational emotionalism... from you .. it is not going to win the White House from the Liberals and Obama. Ohh boohoo hoo. I do not hate Sarah Palin, I feel for her, she just didn't have what it took to withstand the political fire. She melted fast, didn't she?

Huckabee loves today’s ABC / Washington Post poll showing him to be leading the GOP primary. If electability is an issue, then Huckabee would be a contender. Earlier this week, Public Policy Polling showed Huckabee to be the best candidate to challenge Obama.

PPP surveys

Obama 48
Huckabee 42

Obama 49
Romney 40

Obama 51
Palin 43

If you don’t hate her, how come you are so nasty towards her. At least democrats are willing to identify themselves. How come you don’t say the same thing about Sebelias, or Nepalitano, or Huntsman, they all “resigned” how come you don’t think of them the same way. No, I don’t know Sarah’s political future, heck I don’t even think she knows, but you know what, if she can rally conservatives to take control of the House and Senate again, if she does that ONE thing for us, then she has accomplished more then being President ever would

The Dems won because the MSM is their campaign headquarters.

Many Republicans sat home or voted third party because McCain was not a 100% pure conservative
They also helped give us Obama

Rasmussen has her within 6 of Obama..48 to 42 percent. So which poll is more reliable

You are an idiot, I did support Romney, up until he dropped out of the race, I never supported Huckabee I did support Sarah after McCain selected her for VP nomination, and this thread was not about Romney running for President it was about Huckabee and Palin. YOu do not seem to focus too well. It really would help if you would focus, and stop being such and irrational emotionaly groupie for Sarah Palin. I am really sick of it, that is how we lost to Obama. Think about it.. Sarah is just a girl after all, who left the Governoship for personal reason.. to take care of her family and her bills, instead of toughing out her commitment to those who voted for her as Gov of Alaska. And Hey I am okay with that, but it doesn't bode well for those who elect her to office.

How sad is that, that so far.. only Palin, Huckabee, and Romney are the names to go up against Obama... looks like Obama will win a gain by default.

Mike Huckabee should be better than this.

Ther’s lots more but this should be enough to show that he’s no conservative even though he now plays one on TV.

Rasmussen has Palin at -6. PPP has Palin at -8. Margin of error.

Each month, PPP does these 2012 match ups. Huckabee consistently performs the best of the GOP field. People see Huckabee as an affable and honest man. The whole anti-Mormon smear by Huckabee is just propaganda by the Romney camp.

Huckabee will be eating some fried squirrels while Palin is debating Hussein on TV.

Frankly, I don’t care what your opinion is of her, if she runs for President, great, if she doesn’t, that’s fine with me too. Yeah I’m committed to supporting her, because I share her same political views, I also share the same views with DeMint, if he runs for President, I will support him. I see you are committed to Mitt Romney, that’s fine with me too. Don’t put words in someone’s mouth and say what they are gonna do, don’t that Sarah isn’t committed to our efforts, you have no damn idea what she plans on doing. You wanna bash Conservatives, that’s fine, the Daily Kooks is THAT way
