I don’t know about scandals.
But I just googled and noticed that Huckabee was endorsed on Free Republic in 2008, and he was a musical guest at many Free Republic events before that.
So he can’t be that bad.

Mike Huckabee!

The "endorsement" amounted to a choice of the lesser of three evils. At the time, the choices were John McCain, Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee.
Huckabee had the fewest problems. He also had the fewest achievements.
