I am hearing a lot of pundits trying to indercut Huckabee in Iowa and Mc Cain in NH. If they are successful and Romney wins both, he has a huge leg up on the nomination. I can’t figure out why conservative pundits/talk show hosts would want to advance Romney’s campaign when he is a true Mass. Liberal trying to act like a concervative. I even heard Rush today repeating some of the Romney talking points about Huckabee. This really concerns me, because I seee what I thought wer conservatives attacking conservatives to beneft a Liberal. Well, this conservative will never, ever vote for Mitt Romney.

Our "conservative" media personalities have been a huge disappointment so far in this election cycle. For many of them, I think they've decided they want to be "media" rather than "conservative."

Unfortunately, Romney’s “talking points” about Huckabee are all true. Huckabee did advocate in-state tuition breaks and scholarships for illegals in Arkansas, he did commute more sentences than all his neighboring states combined and more than his three (democrat) predecessors combined, and he did increase spending by 65% while governor.

Huckabee likes to call Romney’s attacks on his record “negative” and dirty. But they’re all true - which is why all Huckabee can do is pull a charade about “not wanting to go negative”. Actually responding to Romney’s attacks would do nothing but hurt Huck because he can’t disprove ANY of them.
