GOP Hopeful Mike Huckabee, who has sharpened his anti-illegal immigration talk recently, as he competes for the first in the south primary of South Carolina, put an exclamation point today next to his hardening stance on border security.

I’m sure McCain would feel comfortable sighing it too.

[Reagan79]

Huckabee-just signing the pledges other candidates refuse to sign.

“Huckabee Signs No Amnesty Pledge in SC (Fox video included)”

So how does Huckaliberal DEFINE amnesty?

[Tarpon]

And does anyone believe him? He will change his mind tomorrow.

Sounds like the huckster is running into a headwind, McCain’s VP slot only remains open if he can deliver the votes to allow McCain to win ...

Notice how the huckster coordinates with McCain?

[rintense]

Yep. Huck waits for some other candidate to make a policy statement, then he jumps on the bandwagon with a ‘signed pledge’.

[unspun]

McCain is the only one in Huckabee's way, in South Carolina. Just look at the polls.

[NeoCaveman]

Huck just committed an “Unchristian act” by his own admission.

[unspun]

Go ahead and cite where he has gone back on his word. Even John Davidson or whatever his name is (the complainer in Arkansas) did not accuse him of that.

[ThermoNuclearWarrior]

Huckabee’s record on immigration is poor. He’s just saying what he thinks people want to hear without any plans on keeping his promises. South Carolina please vote for Fred Thompson. He’s clearly a better choice than Huckabee.

Why do these idiots give *uckabee a platform to lie from and cover for his pro-illegal record in Arkansas?

[unspun]

Be sure to punish converts -- that'll really help our big conservative tent.

Thompson said one reason he is hesitant about running is his longtime friendship with Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.). Thompson was one of only four Republican senators to endorse McCain’s 2000 presidential campaign and was an important ally in McCain’s effort to pass campaign-finance reform in 2002.

[Tarpon]

Since when were the polls right. Michigan polls across the board averaged a 3 point win for McCain ...

Have you heard the huckster criticize McCain once? He is angling for McCain’s VP slot. The huckster knows he isn’t going to win.

[counterpunch]

Huckabee learned from the best, his Arkansas mentor and role model, Bill Clinton.
Both are master liars and manipulators.

[unspun]

Polls had Romney ahead by as much as 8 points in Michigan and behind by as many as maybe up to 3, by yesterday. Huckabee is running for President. "Make no mistake about that."

[Tarpon]

I knew that, but what bearing does it have on today’s race? Fred said today that he was not interested in any VP slot, he then talked about what he differed with about McCain, it was quite a list. It wasn’t a direct attack, but it was a direct comparison.

Ever heard the huckster criticize McCain?
