Mike Huckabee Stars in New Ad Endorsing Lamar Alexander
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | June 27, 2014 | Charlie Spiering

Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN) has just unleashed his latest endorsement for re-election. It comes from former Gov. Mike Huckabee.

Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas and 2008 presidential candidate, has a strong following of social conservatives and activists drawn to his populist political message.

"He's been your governor, university president, America's secretary of education. He brought the automobile industry to Tennessee," Huckabee explains in the ad. "Lamar Alexander is now a remarkable senator that Tennessee needs to return to office."

Alexander has released a series of endorsements in recent days, including that of country music star Kix Brooks and former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

His primary opponent, Joe Carr, continues to gain name recognition, including a favorable mention from former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin at a Tea Party event on Thursday....

Huckabee trashed Mcdaniel and Conservative groups supporting him accusing them of nasty politics in his Huckabee Report radio spot. No shocking he’s supporting a gope.

“He’s been your governor, university president, America’s secretary of education.”

And he SUCKED at all of these.

You left out senator, which he’s been worst at of all.

Newt, Huckabee, you’re showing your true colors.

Vote Carr! For a change!

Gee, Lamar!, it sounds like its time for you to get some private sector experience rather than continuing to suckle on the public teat. All these things sound great to a career politician like Nanny Huckabee, but to a lot of others, they are simply evidence that Larmar! is out of touch.

The Huckster should stick with his Saturday TV show; he actually has some good segments, like tomorrow’s on Justina Pelletier.

In my opinion, this is a blatant TV program host/political candidate cosy-relationship conflict-of-interest.

Although not illegal, it's unethical...and if Huckleberry accepted a fee from the Alexander campaign for the ad, it's doubly unethical...and if he did the ad for free, it counts as a campaign contribution to the senator.

If he discusses Alexander and/or his campaign and/or Alexander's opponent on a show, Huckle should be obligated to state a disclaimer before any such discussion....that he contributed to the campaign.

He also has lost the trust of a good percentage of his viewing audience who now will view him as just another shady political hack. Include me in...and I'll also let him know he's now tuned OUT on weekend nights at my house.

If Rush Limbaugh or Mark Levin did political ads on the side for conservative candidates, they'd undoubtedly be subject to conflict-of-interest investigation, fines, and mandatory sensitivity training by the gestapo agents of the IRS and the Federal Communication Commission.
