Of course they want Huckster to run against. A substantial chunk of the Republican base WILL NOT vote for this liberal fraud in the general election. Ditto Romney and Rudy.
“Translated, that means that Huckabee really scares the pants off the Democrats...”
My thoughts, exactly.
That's not happening.
And the Huckster? A tax-and-spend, open-borders goofball? No. As American Republicans become more and more aware of that guy's record, they'll drop him like an apple with a worm in it. They're not gonna drink THAT Jesus juice.
What a sophmoric analysis. I do not think the Democrats are worried about Huckabee in particular. They know that the conservative base will stay home on election day if Huckabee is on the ticket. Also, if Huckabee should get the nomination than the Dems have to be happy, since that will ensure, one way or the other, that a liberal, pro-amnesty, tax and spender, who parrots DNC talking points with regard to foreign policy will get in the white house.
Good analysis. Smart money says that Romney will beat either Hillary or Obama easily.
This piece reminds me of Vizzini trying to decide which cup isn’t the poison goblet in “The Princess Bride”. Reagan outthinks himself trying to read the minds of Democrats instead of looking at Huckabee and seeing him for what he is.
Just Democrats, huh? The grip upon my wallet has been growing for the last few weeks and I cannot figure out why. It might be the class warfare rhetoric that I have been hearing from this rising Republican...which is odd for two reasons: the first one should be obvious and the second one is because my household income isn't much to begin with.
Well, at least he got that much right.
The one huge issue he doesn't mention at all, as in so many other articles I've read/heard recently in all forms of media, is immigration. Any discussion of the current election cycle that doesn't include immigration is either ignorant (Regan is not) or they live in that alternate universe that tries to ignore it and wishes it would simply go away because there is no real compromise on it - Either you truly respect the laws of this country and the wishes of it's citizens or you do not.
Engaging in flowery rhetoric about the "noble" illegals or ignoring them completely and hoping people will follow the journalists/commentators cause du jour and jusI forget about them until the election is over won't work this time.
The MAIN reason I won't support Huckabee (Nor Guliani) is my perception that he will be another Bush when it comes to illegals. Huckabee is eager to pull his religious convictions into his politics, and to me that means he will sell me and my children down the river for his chance to "do the lords work" and "save" the illegals. Just because his same religious convictions on abortion work the way I like isn't enough for me to overlook his fatal flaw on illegals.
NO MORE COMPASSIONATE/HEROIC CONSERVATIVES WHO ARE LIBERALS DRESSED UP IN RELIGIOUS CLOTHING! EVER!
My wife watches television. Occasionally I look over at the screen to see visuals of really disgusting people that were there SmelloVision, would leave the room unpleasantly odoriferous.
This election cycle resembles that analogy as the slimeball MSM manipulates the campaign to reflect the popularity of “Reality TV” programs.
Serious times are here, and serious times are in the future. We need to get serious about whom we want to represent us and lead our Nation through these seriously turbulent times.
Who IS serious?
In the end Huck can shuck Hillary anyday of the week and give Obama a run for his money simply on the basis of being a governor, not a senator.
People are looking for change and consider a member of a Congress with a 22 percent popularity rating a “loser.”
My instincts say a non-Senator, Congressman is the best GOP candidate.
That’s not to say I love Huckabee, Romney or Giuliani, but they all fit the bill.
The Dems are playing Brer Rabbit in the briar patch when they claim they’re worried about the Huckster.
fixed it.
How do you think Huck would fare against Oprah’s Obama? AR might go Huck in that case, but I guess Obama would win with OH.
The Huckster is no threat to Dems because issue conservatives will stay home and not vote for a liberal liar wrapped up in Bible-speakin'.
Many of you will recall that on July 8, 1947, almost exactly 60 Years ago, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object (UFO) with Five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell , New Mexico.
This is a well-known incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S. Air Force and other federal Agencies and organizations.
However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of March 1948, nine months after that historic day, the following people were born:
Albert A. Gore, Jr.
Hillary Rodham
John F. Kerry
William J. Clinton
Howard Dean
Nancy Pelosi
Dianne Feinstein Charles E. Schumer
Barbara Boxer
See what happens when aliens breed with sheep? I certainly hope this bit of information clears up a lot of things for you. It did for me.
