Huckabee draws contrasts between him and Palin
CNN ^ | 12/6/10 | staff

Posted on 12/06/2010 7:00:53 PM PST by pissant

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said he hasn't decided whether he'll run for president, but thinks people should be paying attention to him.

"I just don't understand how it is that a person can read these polls day after day and the narrative is constantly everybody but me," Huckabee told Politico.

"Whether I do it or not, the fact is that if one looks at the overall body of information that's available, nobody would be in a better position to take it all the way to November."

Huckabee also drew a contrast between the attention given to former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, with whom he shares a base of support among religious and conservative groups.

And here is more about Huckabee’s socialist,pro-illegal record:
Mike Huckabee is to the left of even Sam Brownback and John McCain on immigration. He claimed God wants us to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. As Governor of Arkansas he advocated letting illegal aliens vote.

While Huckabee is now lying and saying he is dedicated to fighting illegal immigration, his record is clear.

Fact #1. As Governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee denounced an immigration bill (Arkansas Senate Bill 206) that “would have required proof of citizenship to register to vote and would have required state agencies to report suspected cases of people living in the country illegally.”
(Doug Thompson, “Immigration Bill un-Christian..governor says”Arkansas News Bureau 1/28/05)

Fact #2. As Governor, Mike Huckabee offered a proposal to give state funded scholarships and state benefits to illegal aliens. (Laura Kellams, “Huckabee Plan would give aid to illegal aliens” Arkansas Democrat Gazette 1/12/2005)

Fact #3. Governor Huckabee supported the McCain-Kennedy Senate Amnesty bill for illegal aliens. Huckabee claims to know God’s position on the Amnesty Bill, and that God supports it. Huckabee has repeated called opponents of illegal immigration “racists” and/or “bigots.” Read Article. , Read Article #2

Fact #4. Governor Huckabee refuses to sign the “No Amnesty Pledge”.

Unfortunately, there are four cops in Oregon who will not be able to vote for him.

Dear Huck,

Let’s not go there, okay?

Signed,

A serious primary voter

Huck, go away again, that was nice. Chuck Norris, maybe, but not you. At least he looks tough.

Tina Fey would certainly have a difficult time impersonating Mike Huckabee.

But Tom Hanks has it down.

Huckleberry is unelectable.

Sarah Palin is ineluctable.

"Huckabee draws contrasts between him and Palin"

Said Huckleberry: The difference between me and Palin is that one us of has an outie and the other has an innie. Course I'm so fat now I'm not sure which one I have.

I want Huck to run... run fast, run hard and don’t stop when you hit the water ... just keep running.

IMHO, because he’s a former minister, and his only Conservative strong point is being a strong opponent of abortion, of which he is very vocal, he can attract Republican voters who see only the abortion issue. In ‘08, he split the Conservative primary votes with Fred Thompson, with that strength, and that left us with mclame. I don’t think he can do that with Sarah, and he’s realizing it, but it’s a bitter pill for him to swallow.
