Phyllis Schlafly, president of the national Eagle Forum, is even more blunt. “He destroyed the conservative movement in Arkansas, and left the Republican Party a shambles,” she says. “Yet some of the same evangelicals who sold us on George W. Bush as a ‘compassionate conservative’ are now trying to sell us on Mike Huckabee.”/i>

There's a reason he's polling poorly in Arkansas. They know him best. Also quite telling only one of the double digit candidatesis a clear runaway favorite in his own state in the general election.

She's right about "some" of those evangelicals. Dobson is clearly itching to endorse huckabee but got scared off if redstate's sources are accurate. But newt is also behind Huckabee's candidacy, Newt was the one pushing this guy before he started getting traction. that tells me all I need to know about Newt these days. If his statements on global warming and socialized Hillarycare weren't enough.

I agree with you completely.

Newt is the one Republican who had the most potential and then threw it all away because he lacked self control, morality, and common sense.

He is the Republican Clinton.

That incident coupled with his support of the Global Warming farce made him personna non-grata for me.

He is totally unreliable.
