WAKE UP PEOPLE!
It’s all Pat Robertson’s fault! He came out with an endorsement of Guiliani and his following compromised with Huckabee instead.
What killing me during this election cycle is once again, the media and it’s blatant bias towards those that THEY want and shove it down the people’s throat.
True but with Republicans having so many democrats who left their party and came over to us just because of the moral issue, that does not play with Reagan dems or blue dog dems who could care less. It is also why when the Christians leave the Republican party because of the moral issue and start their own, it is doubtful it will be conservative when it comes to taxes which is sad.
The real problem was the fact the republicans put out so many liberals Making big a deal of them and did not highlight either Hunter or Thompson so you are stuck with what you get now. A lot of people thinking at least he is a moral conservative because of his background and not looking any farther because they are lazy or just sick of politics. Liberal morals do not win Republican presidential primaries.
We aren't the stupid party for nothing!
Most good conservative leaders sort of get talked into elective office, but then remain proud and supportive of their Christian faith.
Huckabee went into politics precisely to demonstrate and showcase his Christianity, and to promote it like a trophy on his fireplace mantle.
There is a big difference.
The non-Christian conservatives, especially secular Jews, see a politician like Huckabee as the beginning of the end of America's 'neutrality' in regards to the separation of church and state.
Huckabee will scare the beJesus out of millions of voters, not because he IS a religious zealot -- but because that's what people will perceive him to be.
The Republican Party will get crushed in '08 if Mike Huckabee is the presidential nominee.
Not only that, but Huckabee is way too frumpy, and simply does not project the power and strength necessary to lead today's free world.
He is the Wally Cox of 2008 politics.
