Two worthless, party-killing RINOs.
do freeple peeple understand why Huckabee was and is a flawed candidate?
He had talent as a communicator, and said, “why not elect a candidate whose native tongue is the language of Zion?”!
That turns him into a parochial candidate. Makes about as much sense as a guy running around speaking Spanish. You get intense support in one constituency and very little in every other one! Huckabee did not even succeed in getting support from pro-life religious Catholic Republicans. No ability at all to broaden his coalition.
So the response to Huckabee is: “We know you can speak the language of Zion, but can you learn to also speak ‘the common language’?”
If one reads writings/speeches of Lincoln ... Reagan ... and others (even FDR), they rarely used language that would not be familiar to Christians of all affiliations. “Be all things to all people.”
Huckabee’s approach is ‘bad politics’ because in addition to being ineffective, there is something mildly offensive about it.
