Republican sideshow
Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | Nov. 23, 2008 | John Brummett

Posted on 11/23/2008 6:02:47 PM PST by redk

People wonder why Mike Huckabee would come out with a book that violates Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment, which is not to criticize another Republican, and trashes the wholly deserving Mitt Romney.

Is it that Huckabee wants to get Romney out of the way so that he can emerge pre-emptively as the GOP alternative to Sarah Palin in 2012?

Well I'm glad at least one media outlet is admitting to what they plan to set up.

Brummet isn’t even from Vegas. He is as stupid as a brick, I don’t know why he isn’t pushing a broom.

I have nothing against the guy but , when I watch him or listen to him , he gives me the creeps ~ it’s like he is trying to please everyone.

Huckleberry has gone about as far as he can go. He can do what he wants but he’s just too wishy washy. We will not elect a religious dude like this.

He acts like most do-gooders act. Sort of kissing your ass even while he looks down his nose at you.

huckabee suckabee.

He’s a grifter who saw how successful Billy Jeff was in AR and tried they same play in the republican party. He got outflanked by McCain.

Untrustworthy charlatan! (sp?)

Anyone else notice how much Huckster and his wife look alike? That creeps me out.

Huckabee reminds me of an old carnival barker/con-man.

I tried to watch his show, it was one left-wing nut job after another.

Besides, he is an assh@le.

I'm a former clergydude and I'm upset by this remark. I think I'd make an awesome prexydint.

I would flip a coin every time anyone asked me for a decision. Chances are I'd do better than any prexydint since early 1989.

The Huckster bites but LEAVE MATT ALONE

The whining about poor downtrodden Mitt is pretty tiresome.

You cut me to the quick! I think a Clergy Dude would make a great president BUT he will never be elected. The Liberals would turn the election into the Scolps Monkey Trial all over again.

RE the GOP alternative to Sarah Palin in 2012

OK, this keeps on coming up. Is Palin supposed to be our nominee. I really like her and was very happy when McCain picker her but, is this a joke? Sounds like the Fred Thompson will save us belief. Lets have Sarah as maybe Senator to get some national experience. I do NOT want to see this sweet woman ripped to pieces.

We had a guy like the Mitbots in our office ~ we got rumors of an impending RIF. He got the idea that if he could bait others into really nasty arguments, and then run to the boss with a complaint about them, he would enhance his standing and get an extra 15 points.

About half of us were veterans so he didn't have a chance.

That’s it. You got it exactly right.

I know this will make some people mad, but to me Huckabee acts like a typical preacher.

Yeah I would hate to see the media take the kid gloves that they have thus far handled her with off.
