How about just suggesting a better man for the office?

Huckabee has surged because he won a couple of debates and he’s got evangelical support. If a quick rise can happen to the liberal pro-life evangelical Huckster, it can happen to the conservative pro-life evangelical Hunter.

According to Intrade, the winner of the December 12th GOP debate was... Duncan Hunter.

Why the smart money is on Duncan Hunter

In this poll Hunter is up 3% and even with Paul and Thompson.

Huckabee is who he is. Both he and Mitt are good bureaucrats.

Wasn’t Hutchison a “drug czar” or some other worthless position in the government. I like Huckster even less after this endorsement

Crucify him! Crucify him! Give us Barabas!

While I'm not a big Huckabee fan, you have an excellent point about the type of cheap character assassination he receives from many. Given the choice between someone weak on fiscal issues but sound on fundamentals like inalienable rights, and their proper relationship to federalism, I will take that person over the opposition any day of the week.

Course, Hunter gives you just about everything - morally, fiscally, and security-wise.

I found it interesting that Hutchinson thought he had to pander to MoveOn and the scumbag liberal Democrat newsrooms by throwing out that line about the Huckster being “intellectually curious”.

Please. This is what makes Huckabee even more distasteful than his record. It’s the fact that any criticism is never refuted with facts. It’s refuted with over the top emotional tirades about how his opponents are a religious bigots trying to frame him.

Clearly, this is a school of politics in Hope, Arkansas. Because Bill Clinton employs a very similar sort of defense.

Huckabee is a pro-life liberal Democrat. He belongs in the Republican primary even less than Ron Paul.

So the Jews are calling for Huckabee's death because he claims he is the son of God? And the Jews are evidently calling for Pilot to commute the death sentence of a man named Barabbas?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...some interesting stuff going on down in Arkansas these days.

I haven't heard of that story, but I do know that there's an ex-governor of Arkansas who is a big fan of raising taxes, giving tuition breaks for illegal aliens, shutting down terrorist detention facilities in order to make the peace loving Muslims happy, gets the NEA endorsement in New Hampshire, supports socialized medicine (See SCHIP), wants to build a wall to stop the Pakistanis instead of the millions of illegal Mexicans crossing, writes policy speeches from the notes of MoveOn.org, and tells me that I'm being un-Christian-like by not supporting his views.

And then there's Bill Clinton..

Do you think it is appropriate to use the crucifixion of our Lord in such a manner just to prop up a political candidate. It is really unseemly.

Your preemptive whining won’t fix Huckabee’s record.

How about making a rational, factual case for your guy instead of merely screaming bile at the other side?

Such irony , that you would use the words “crucify” and be talking about Huckabee in the same thought. Huckabee isn’t Christ. And if Huckabee can not stand the politics of the campaign, then let him quit.

When are you going to get back to the bogus attacks on Mclame health??

Your problem is that you cannot make an argument you need to throw around half truths and out right fabrications. Most people oppose the huckster because he is a liberal on 98% of the issues.

You don’t have to hate Huckabee not to vote for him. And it’s a squandering of genuine enmity to demonize Huckabee when all you have to do is vote for one of his opponents.

Whoa damn, I hadn’t really thought about crucifying the Huck. I was just not gonna vote for him.

How dramatic.
