“I had a similar visceral reaction to those quotes.”
This isn’t necessarily true in your case, but many critics of Governor Huckabee would do well to become less visceral and more rational.
And defenders of Governor Huckabee should try making a rational case for him instead of responding viscerally to anyone who criticizes him.
Remember, you are trying to convince us to vote for him. Screaming bile at everyone who has a different viewpoint of the Governor, as you have been doing on this thread, is not likely to win your candidate many votes.
