Governor Huckabee discusses how he came to be governor of Arkansas, what it would take for him to run for president in 2008 and his political philosophy.

[TheSarce]

Heads up, FR's favorite bass player will be on C-Span shortly. It repeats later tonight at 11:00 pm Eastern Time. It appears to have been taped on Jan. 21, the day after the FReeper W2 Ball. "Q&A" is the series that has replaced "Booknotes."

[TheSarce]

Huckabee ping! Please ping any others who might be interested.

[BipolarBob]

Thanks to term limits we are shed of him temporarily. As he has indicated a presidential or senatorial public seat would be just the ticket for him. I would prefer he go back to the private sector (he was a preacher).

[kristinn]

Thanks! Watching now.

[nutmeg]

Thanks for the ping, Sarce! Just switched to C-SPAN. I'm trying to do ten things at once (as usual), but will watch as much of it as I can...

[nutmeg]

This is on C-SPAN *NOW*

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

[kristinn]

C-SPAN said they were going to send a crew to film some of the Governor's band playing the Freeper Ball for inclusion in this broadcast. I was so busy that night I don't know if they were there or not.

Thanks for the heads up, Sarce!

A little editing:

As he has indicated a presidential or senatorial public seat would be just the ticket for him...(he was a preacher).

It's a good thang...

[DollyCali]

I recall one group that looked "official" workers rather than we FReepers madly shooting pix

[DollyCali]

thanks for ping.. will read your comments here as I am cable/dish deprived.

[DollyCali]

thanks for link.. can maybe "see it".. my computer's sound card died yesterday..

:(

[nutmeg]

I don't know if there was a film crew at the Ball either.

[DollyCali]

This is a hoot. Before I can go to the cspan site, I need to download something for MSMedia... will only take 62 minutes!

I love computers

[nutmeg]

I'm sorry... got a phone call during the interview, so I missed a good part of it. I noticed at one point there was a pic of the Gov. up on the screen before he lost 100+ lbs. I assume they were talking about whatever diet he was on...

[Syncro]

He is now saying he wants to see people that aren't wealthy to be able to run for office.

He believes they are shut out to some degree because of the cost of running for office.

Now he is talking about covenant marriages. A special thing for Hallo...Thanksgiv...oops...Valentine's day.

Stressing good pre marriage counseling.

They are doing a thing in a big stadium. Covenant marriage is a law in Ark.

[TheSarce]

Live footage from FR Ball on now, 48 min into program, woohoo!

[Txsleuth]

I have been watching the intvu and am really impressed with Gov. Huckabee---maybe in light of his appearance at the Freepers Inauguration Ball, he could become a FReeper 2008 mascot/candidate---

Sounds like he "missed" his chance to be a Senator (in Pryors place) when the other Governor was convicted to fraud---could be a blessing, Senators have too much of a voting record

Showing Gov. Huckabee and band right now--

[DollyCali]

thanks.. appreciate it

[Syncro]

It's Ball video!
