I don’t agree with Rush if he was saying this in reference to Huckabee. Huckabee is very likeable, many people are liking him because of how he is performing at the debates. I never heard anything about him until I heard him at the one of debates. The strategy that Rush is talking about was already used with Bob Dole. And I don’t recall Rush appearing to notice back then. Right now the Democrats are using a different strategy, the strategy is to encourage too many to try to run as a conservative, thereby splitting the conservative vote and ensuring that either McCain or Rudy get nominated. What McCain did in the Senate with the campaign refinance was unforgiveable and also the immigration bill. Hillary would love it if either got nominated. McCain with his hot temper and Rudy with his cocky personality and all his extramartial affairs, not to mention supporting abortion and gay rights! Yes Rush has a lot of good ideas, but he is not perfect, as Bob Dole has now proven. I knew it back then that Bob Dole was being used by the left wing media cause they knew he was easy to beat. If you are honest with yourself, you will see that Dole has always been dull.
First of all, Rush is never wrong :-) Also, he never disparages or promotes a Republican candidate during this election. He believes that it’s THEIR job to get noticed and carry their own water.
If he did it for them, it would be an unfair advantage.
Do you know Huck’s whole record and beliefs? If not than I think you will want to hear them. Just click on the “huckabee” tag at the top and read what other FReepers have posted on previous threads regarding his immigration, GW, nanny state, big Gubmint tilt.
You’re an adult. You can make up your own mind. You don’t need me or anyone else.
All I would say is consider substance over style. FRegards.
