“It was real interesting hearing Fred Thompson talk about Ronald Reagan last night,” Huckabee said. “Because Fred Thompson supported Gerald Ford in 1976 and not Ronald Reagan. He supported (fellow Tennessean) Howard Baker in 1980 and not Ronald Reagan. I appreciate his recent conversion, but some of us were for Ronald Reagan back in the early days; our legacy goes back a little further.”

So Huckabee says:

but some of us were for Ronald Reagan back in the early days; our legacy goes back a little further

But Huckabee supported Democrats even very recently.

According to news outlets in the governor's home state, Huckabee supported Democrat Barbara Horn during a 2000 primary race for a state senate seat in southwest Arkansas. Horn subsequently beat her Democratic opponent, and the Republican she would have opposed bowed out of the race.

So how far can his legacy go back?
