Well? Finish the story, you know the part where the RINO goes down in defeat in the general and then the left gloats? How about preventing this scenario in 2016 instead?

He’s a nice man, but he has exhibited poor judgment—like when he pardoned two convicted murderes who went out and killed again.

Huckabee is wasting his time. His estimate of his base is way overblown.

Different email between this year and the last two primaries is that we could have up to THREE heavyweight RINOs(Christie, Romney and Bush) who will split the RINO vote.

I’m not sure Huckabee could even win against Biden, and that’s pretty bad....

Unfortunately, many of the “evangelicals” don’t mind a big government, as long as THEIR values are what are forced upon people, and much of the tax dollars goes to THEM to care for the “poor and less fortunate”, rather than government agencies. In the end, same result, theirs is probably ‘less bad’....

Many of the atheists don’t mind big government either. BTW- All of the Christian conservatives I know do not like big government.

Most religious folks I know don’t like big government either, but enough of them do to be dangerous in their numbers.

I blames Fox News for this. They kept his damn show on the air for so long that he is actually started to think that people care about what he has to say.

Huckabee’s a sweetheart, but so were both my grandmas. Doesn’t mean I’d want them for commander in chief. Does anyone believe for one moment that Huck has the sack to face the dem nominee in a vicious campaign? Laughable.
You think Romney and McCain let themselves get walked all over? Huckabee would be a shredded doormat by the end of the campaign.

Reagan: “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”

Huckabee: “Mr. Gorbachev, if you wouldn’t mind, would it be possible to arrange a meeting in which we could discuss the wall situation? We’ll keep it light. I’ll do a bbq, I’ll bring my banjo. Thank you sooo much!”

I’m so sick of sack-less republican nominees. Bending over to not insult anyone, or anger the media, or irritate their opponents. I want a brash, in your face, (no not Christie either), unapologetic, unwaivering conservative. Yea, goodluck with that.
