I think some of them are in love with him because they think Hillary or Obama would whooop him.
Others of them are scared of him because they fear that Hillary or Obama might lose to Huckabee.
Afterall, Huckabee is very liberal on most issues. He would probably give Hillary and Obama a run for their money on whether the government should increase taxes on the “rich” to subsidize the poor. He’d be in favor of reducing the prison population. He’d agree with the Democrats on illegal immigration. In the end, the election would become a referendum on abortion and gay rights, since Huck pretty much agrees with Hillary and Obama on everything else.
And the media is not so certain that it wants a referendum on those issues. Some of them do. Some of them don’t.
You have inspired me!
I have the perfect ticket:
Clinton/Huckabee...Both liberal, and he’s nice!
