And so when a Baptist minister is in the mix, he's going to end up surging--despite any other concerns about him, he's trustworthy.

Yep, trustworthy. You can depend on him to:

1. Stretch the truth about his "theology degree."
2. Fire a state law enforcement officer for not giving him enough help in covering for a dog-hanging son.
3. Raise taxes.
4. Pardon a bazillion criminals, even a 4X convicted DUI.
5. Make deals with Mexico to enable Tyson and others to keep their workforces replete with undocumented workers.
6. Say that illegal immigration is God giving the U.S. a chance to make up for slavery.
7. etc., etc., etc..

Look--I know I'm just going to sound like a Huckabee shill, but this whole theology-degree story is really misunderstood. Huckabee DOES have a Theology degree. It is an undergraduate degree. Unfortunately, people made it out that Huckabee claimed he had an advanced degree and so he had to clarify the record. It was stupid to not clarify, but it's pretty ridiculous to think that he actually thought he was going to get away with a lie here. Check this story out: http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/287527.aspx Like I said, Huckabee isn't perfect, but let's play fair here and be honest. We've got to get through the lies. As far the "Tax-Hike-Mike" charge... Michael Medved--who is not supporting Huckabee--has clearly shown that in reality Romney raised taxes much more than Huckabee. http://michaelmedved.townhall.com/blog/g/c6692253-551a-45e4-ba9f-37e740fe9411 Huckabee is NOT perfect, but he's not the advocate of taxes people make him out to be. So why the unfair attack? See, this is why many Christians feel like the deeper issue here is, in fact, a concern to distance the party from Christianity.
