Neither. I like them both as people, but Huckabee is a RINO and Palin would be fighting upstream from one attack after another from the left, dominating the news cycle 24/7.

Anyone that the left/media thinks is our favorite or is likely to be a good candidate is going to get blasted 24/7. Get ready for it.

No matter who's the GOP nominee, they're going to get torched by the DNC/media anyway.

Palin has been through the fire and is completely vetted. She also has a better grasp of the issues and can draw a sharp contrast with Obama. With Huckabee, they'll say he "agrees" with Obama on amnesty and nanny-statist polices.

The moment Huckster gets the nominee, the media will unload with stories about his pardons, corruption, and fiscally liberal policies.

So you think that choosing Palin would lead to the start of a new trend, of the media being hostile to the Republican Presidential candidate?

The left MSM doesn’t like us. Period. If they back a Republican it’s one who’s as liberal as we can run... Then when that person gets the nomination, the MSM switches to the REAL dem - and back him. Look at McCain. He was the MSM darling. Do you think any of them voted for him?

Finally someone who sees the truth. I agree.

Ditto “neither.” We actually have a wonderful, albeit imperfect list which will narrow as the money comes or doesn’t come in: Governors Christie, McDonnell, Barbour and Daniels for openers. A lot can happen in a year or two.

I couldn’t have put it better myself. However, between the two, I would definitely pick Palin.

"Palin would be fighting upstream"

So are you suggesting that we elect someone who will "go with the flow"?

What true conservative candidate wouldn't be? And she knows how.
