I notice that many people on this site hate Mike Huckabee, and it is clear why. One thing, though: just who do you think the Reagan Democrats were/Are?
“One thing, though: just who do you think the Reagan Democrats were/Are?”
The Reagan Democrats were pro life, pro gun, union autoworkers in Michigan.
Check the history of the term and you will find that is a fact!
I don’t think they were nanny-staters who thought the government should control their lives.
Blue dogs are generally family oriented, favor less intevention by the judiciary, prefer low taxes while not big on war overseas are strongly protective of our borders and don’t favor free trade.
Huckabee has the social conservatism down and that’s about it.
His opinion on hiking taxes and open borders would turn them away in droves when exposed.
