I have one better.
I was told that Huckabee is “God’s candidate”.
It seems that terms like establishment and elites only apply to people who are against Huckabee.
LOL!
A Huckster supporter won’t get it.
It all about the Huckster Christianity to Humanism and financed through socialism. We have DEMONCRATS for that! We don’t need an idiot claiming to be a “Christian” moving us further to the LEFT using a perverted form of Christianity to do it.
I personally RESNT his LYING about Christianity. Christianity is NOT about Government being the Messiah.
“Long would’ve turned us into a Nazi-like fascist state, intentionally”
I suspect that if the Huck was hooked to a lie detector we would find a deep seated desire for a Theocracy with him as the leader, excuse me, conduit to God.
ps...Huey was one of the most dangerous men to ever live in this country and Earl was one of the craziest. I knew one of Earls psychiatrists. He was treated by a team, one from LSU the other from Tulane in order to protect both schools.
If Huckabee fizzles, his followers will be looking for another prolife evangelical to fill the void. Hunter fits that bill, no one else in the race is evangelical.
The GOP doesn’t get it. They need to let this faction find a home. The amount of invective aimed at evangelicals is surprising, but then everyone wants their votes.
Huckabee has surged because he won a couple of debates and he’s got evangelical support. If a quick rise can happen to the liberal pro-life evangelical Huckster, it can happen to the conservative pro-life evangelical Hunter.
Prolife evangelicals will be very comfortable in Hunter’s camp, since he’s a prolife evangelical staunch conservative.

On Poll Results and the End of Conservatism

WAIT A MINUTE: Rudy is in Florida, Huckabee, Romney and McCain are in Michigan.
Does that mean that Fred has SC all to himself? RUN FRED; RUN!!!
Wow! Looks like a pretty large rally.
Its the same thing for liberals who practive identity politics. Example, if you don't vote for the woman or minority, you must therefore be a sexist or rascist.
Probably so, however, I am amazed that being a news junkie, I have not heard anyone ask that question.
I continue my search. (thanks for the smile ! )
“Playing the “Christian” card to idiots who don’t know what Christianity is.”
Or what it isn’t.
Frankly, I believe a lot of people have turned their backs on Christianity BECAUSE of people like Huckabee.
“Ugh! Evangelical Republicans are becoming a satire of what democrats think they are.”
Exactly! This is why Huck would lose in the general election.
He is every bit as polarizing as Hillary is.
BINGO!
It would appear that a lot of people can’t. Look at his poll numbers.
I find his crap to be just as offensive as someone that says vote for me cause I’m black or vote for me because I’m a woman.
The stench from this guy is becoming overwhelming.
“Huckabee [in MI]: Evangelical Christians Now Have a Chance to Lead GOP”
Should read:
Huckabee [in MI]: PHONY Christians Now Have a Chance to Lead GOP
I was listening to Laura Ingraham talking with Center for Immigration Studies Mark Krikorian yesterday . Huckabee claims Krikorian devised his ‘immigration’ policy for him. Mark said he had been contacted by several people and wrote up a brief ‘what had to be done list’, by no means a complete policy that was published some time ago.
Huckabee simply took that article, added little to it and implied Mark and Huck worked out this new ‘policy’. Mark has never worked with or endorsed Huck. Never. His supporters made it sound like CIS had worked with him on this and thereby endorsed him for Pres.
Krikorian says, [Well, at least he credited me with writing it]
Cool clips (Laura365) NEW! Mark Kirkorian on the immigration issue.(pay to play)
This seems to be the article Krikorian was talking about that Huckabee hijacked. http://www.cis.org/articles/2005/mskoped052305.html Ten Points for a Successful Presidential Candidate

Arkansas Mike Huckabee, Republican Legislature: Democratic Final-Term Grade: F Final Overall Grade: D
Thanks to a final term grade of F, Huckabee earns an overall grade of D for his entire governorship. Like many Republicans, his grades dropped the longer he stayed in office. In his first few years, he fought hard for a sweeping $70 million tax cut package that was the first broad-based tax cut in the state in more than 20 years. He even signed a bill to cut the state’s 6 percent capital gains tax—a significant progrowth accomplishment.
But nine days after being reelected in 2002, he proposed a sales tax increase to cover a budget deficit caused partly by large spending increases that he proposed and approved, including an expansion in Medicare eligibility that Huckabee made a centerpiece of his 1997 agenda. He agreed to a 3 percent income tax “surcharge” and a 25-cent cigarette tax increase. In response to a court order to increase spending on education, Huckabee proposed another sales tax increase. Huckabee wants to run for the GOP presidential nomination next year. He’s already been hailed as a viable big-government conservative candidate by some. That seems about right: Huckabee’s leadership has left taxpayers in Arkansas much worse off.
Apparently the good folks in Arkansas had a rough time of it with Mike Huckabee: Big Government Conservative.
Huckabee was in line with these governors:
Montana Brian Schweitzer (D)* 47 F Alabama Bob Riley (R) 47 F Washington Christine Gregoire (D)* 47 F Arkansas Mike Huckabee (R) 46 F Nevada Kenny Guinn (R) 46 F Delaware Ruth Ann Minner (D)* 44 F North Carolina Michael Easley (D)* 44 F Arizona Janet Napolitano (D) 43 F Louisiana Kathleen Blanco (D)* 43 F Ohio Bob Taft (R) 53 C Kentucky Ernie Fletcher (R) 53 C Maryland Robert Ehrlich (R) 53 C Vermont James Douglas (R) 53 C Michigan Jennifer Granholm (D) 53 C

“but I’m becoming sympathic to the guy in reaction to the constant attacks upon his faith”
I haven’t seen anyone attacking his faith. They are attacking the way he’s using it.
I know how Mark Krikorian operates and he would have drawn up good immigration pointers for any candidate who asked. Amusing.
Huckabee is the sloppiest candidate and fast with the truth. I’m voting Mitt Romney partly because he is the exact opposite of sloppy. I don’t want another Bill Clinton type slob in the White House. I trust Mormons a lot more than Arkie con artists
My Grandfather was a Baptist minister. Both sides from Arkansas, all Baptist. I can tell you this, they would have kicked Huck to the curb. His Morman bashing and that of his supporters is the biggest display of Christian hypocracy I’ve ever witnessed.
Or what it isn’t.

I couldn’t agree with you MORE!
Ignorant people and PROUD to be IGNORANT.

AS you can guess I have nothing against Baptists not people from Arkansas. I’m just sick of hustlers like Clinton and Huckabee. Both are far too cute. I want a President to be God fearing
