Huckabee says polling shows he's best Republican to take on Obama in 2012
The Hill ^ | 06/27/10 | Eric Zimmermann

Mike Huckabee said Sunday he's the strongest Republican to take on President Obama in 2012.

"I end up leading a lot of the polls," the former Arkansas governor told "Fox News Sunday." "I’m the Republican that clearly at this point does better against Obama than any other Republican."

Huckabee said he hasn't made up his mind about running, but suggested he's strongly considering it.

“I haven’t closed the door. I think that would be foolish on my part, especially when poll after poll shows that there is strong sentiment out there," he said.

Singing a differnet tune now than he did a few months back. I really don’t want him to run as he’s too much a RINO.

I’m going to vote for Palin come hell or high water.

I agree. She needs the opportunity to finally finish something. Why not the most difficult and powerful position in the world?

Great, the commies and state-run media/polling agencies are going to pick our Presidential candidate again. And it will be a loser, again!

I don’t vote for cop killers or even accessories after the fact.

He’s already demonstrated his lack of executive responsibility.

Huckabee is delusional.

He and Palin both work for Fox. He has more experience as Governor. Do you think he and Palin should both go away?

I dig Sarah. but Presidential material, she is not. Same with Huck.

I guess at this moment, Romney has the best chance. But I”m holding out hope for someone else. A man’s man, someone with huevos. Someone like Ronald Reagan.

Just how big exactly are these guy’s egos anyway? Huckabee could beat Obama? He is living on Mars.

Is it true Huckabigot is your newest customer ?

It's one thing not to agree with Huckabee on certain issues but to imply he is a bigot is not only nonsense, it is the sort of horse manure one expects from liberal nit wit.

Well stated. That’s exactly how my wife and I view him.

I have not seen any good candidates in the last few years. If you were to mention one on FR you would have a dozen people attacking them. But I notice the ones that put a person down never offer an alternative. This is why we will not win an election in 2012.

Did you see the show? I just saw it and this gives a false notion of what he actually meant.

What he was said was that even though polls show him the most likely to defeat Obama, there are other considerations that give him pause about running, such as the debt he still has from last time. But he agreed he had not ruled it out.

The MSM, as usual, is not being fair to a Republican. What else is new.

Need to keep an eye on Hillary and start building a case of why she is no more qualified that zero was. She has been a total failure as Sec of State but will use that office as proof she is presidential material. People buy into her shit just because she is a Clinton.
