Watching Huckabees show. I really like it, especially how he interacts with the audience. There is a nice multi-cultural mix in the audience too. I hope FOX continues to run this show.

During the primaries, National Review Magazine led the charge against Mike Huckabee. In fact, they were so scared of Huckabee that they wrote a cover story putting him as an unacceptable VP due to his being an economic liberal. In the recent bailout debate, Huckabee and the majority of National Review's posters on the Corner blog once again were on opposite sides. One defended the fundamental basis of our market economy and insisted that we couldn't insist that if we lose, we needed to call in government to "take away the pain." While the other prattled on about the need...

The series premiere of “Huckabee” on the Fox News Channel brought in about 2.01 million viewers, according to Nielsen Co. ratings.

According to Nielsen, Huckabee beat out Roland Martin on CNN, a showing of “Apprentice UK” on CNBC and an MSNBC special.

(CNN) – Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee said Friday the John McCain made a "huge mistake" by even floating the possibility he would not appear at the first presidential debate as planned. “You can’t just say, ‘World stop for a moment. I’m going to cancel everything,” Huckabee told the Associated Press Thursday. Huckabee, who vied with McCain for the GOP presidential nomination long after it appeared McCain was the party's presumptive nominee, has been an on-and-off critic of the Arizona senator. Earlier this summer he took part in a Washington, DC rally calling on McCain and Obama to highlight...

Former Republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee announced on his Web site that he has a new show debuting 8 p.m. EDT Saturday and Sunday on the Fox News Channel. The show is simply titled "Huckabee" he said. "I'm sure the name will make it easy for all of you to find it," Huckabee wrote on his political action committee's blog. Fox News Channel spokesman Richard White said that Huckabee's new show would air on the channel but referred all questions about the show to Huckabee's agent. Sarah Huckabee, the former Arkansas governor's daughter and head of his political action committee,...

Frankly, I’m disappointed and disgusted with my own Republican party as I watch them attempt to strong-arm a bailout of some of America’s biggest corporations by asking the taxpayers to suck up the staggering results of the hubris, greed, and arrogance of those who sought to make a quick buck by throwing the dice. They lost, but want the rest of us to cover their bets so they won’t be effected in their lavish lifestyles as they figure out how to spend their tens of millions and in some cases, hundreds of millions in bonuses and compensation which was their...

The Huckster just now on Hannity and Colmes. Colmes: I thought McCain said he was going to take the high road? Huckabee: It's not just John McCain. Frankly I believe they should both stop it and get back to the issues. Thanks a lot Huckster!!! Ugh!

Less than a year ago, Rudy Giuliani was leading in national polls for the Republican presidential nomination, but last night, he was making the case for the man who was in a distant third place at the time -- John McCain. When we last saw Giuliani on the national scene, his supposed "firewall" in Florida had collapsed, forcing him to abandon his once promising run for the White House. But tonight, he brought the house down with a prosecutorial dissection of Barack Obama's unreadiness to be president by contrasting his lack of record with the experience of McCain. Liberated from...

Onetime White House aspirant Mike Huckabee strapped on an electric guitar Tuesday night and rocked a Minneapolis nightclub, and a national gossip website offers a harsh review along with the video evidence. TMZ.com's report shows Huckabee and his band, Capitol Offense, playing "Born to be Wild" at the unnamed club. As for how the band sounded, TMZ.com says: "We'll tell you what we thought of the band ... as soon as we wipe the blood from our ears."

Sarah Huckabee on whether Palin is neglecting her family: "I think it's a disgrace that the question is even being asked." "I think it's time the media stops asking the question and follows the rest of America's lead in moving forward and seeing that women are capable to lead this country." "...I never felt like my dad was any less of a parent because he was a governor. If anything I felt like he was a better parent and more involved, because he was a governor -- because he was doing more for my future and more for my every...

ABC News' Ursula Fahy reports: At breakfast with Texas delegation at the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis-St. Paul, at least one Republican took off his 'America' hat and struck a partisan tone. Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, a former Arkansas governor, spent a couple of minutes Tuesday defending John McCain's vice presidential pick Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, chastising the media for focusing on her Monday statement about her pregnant 17 year old daughter, and taking a shot at Democratic vice presidential candidate Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del.

Sarah Palin is a pleasant surprise for those of us who had hoped that Senator McCain would pick a principled and authentic conservative pro-life leader. Sarah Palin is both principled and authentic. As a Governor, she also brings an important balance of understanding of the critical domestic issues that is needed and that the Democrats have ignored with their ticket. Governor Palin is smart, authentic, tough, and a dynamic choice that will remind women that they are not welcome on the Democrat’s ticket, they have a place with Republicans.

I'm confident enough to put this up now, but willing to be wrong. Right now though, every sign, signal, and background chatter indicates John McCain will pick Tim Pawlenty, Minnesota's governor, as his running mate. UPDATE: A source close to the campaign now confirms for me that it "more likely than not" is Pawlenty. He does, however, caution me that the campaign does not actually want to leak tonight lest the Obama camp get too much of a chance to play the victim card with a sympathetic media. Below the fold, I've compiled data on Pawlenty that you might find...

Being on John McCain's short list for vice president makes Tim Pawlenty a busy guy. One day last week began with a meeting on security for the upcoming Republican convention in St. Paul, Minn., where Gov. Pawlenty will play host. Then it was off to Farmfest, the state's biggest agricultural fair. Following that, a side trip to Iowa where, as national co-chair for Sen. McCain's presidential campaign, he passed out tire gauges as a way of poking fun at Barack Obama's suggestion the energy crisis be addressed by having Americans better inflate their cars. The next day it was off...

The Secret Service is denying that it conducted a security sweep of the Michigan home belonging to the sister of former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (R). Roll Call earlier reported that the sweep took place, suggesting that it might be an indication that Romney was in line to be selected as Sen. John McCain’s (R-Ariz.) vice presidential running mate.

ABC News' Teddy Davis Reports: The Obama campaign signaled a willingness on Thursday to go after Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, R-Minn., for the 2007 Minneapolis bridge collapse while saying that the populist argument it is building against John McCain will continue even if the presumptive Republican nominee taps the son of a truck driver as his running mate. "I don't think it's particularly relevant who the running mate is if the running mate is willing to embrace in total the Bush-McCain economic doctrine," Obama strategist David Axelrod told ABC News. "Everyday Americans understand that those policies aren't working for them,"...

As John McCain prepares to announce his running mate on Friday in Dayton, Ohio, speculation is centering on candidates ranging from a former head of the Winter Olympics to an independent senator as the Arizona lawmaker's choice to help him take on Barack Obama and Joe Biden in the historic fall election. With the Democrats' convention winding down in Denver, the focus is shifting to the Republicans, who are scheduled begin their nominating convention in St. Paul, Minn., on Monday. There's a chance the convention could be postponed, however, if Tropical Storm Gustav turns into a hurricane and strikes the...

DENVER — For one last time this morning, Tim Pawlenty went about the business of not answering questions about his immediate political future. Will he — or won't he — be Sen. John McCain's running mate? That's the question about 100 reporters from around the country wanted to ask the Minnesota governor at a Republican Party-sponsored news event. That's the only question Pawlenty didn't want to answer at the session in a light-industrial building on the outskirts of Denver. He's used to this dance, which is expected to finally end late tonight (if the news leaks) or Friday morning, when...

With the Minnesota governor in Denver to continue his role as a GOP surrogate during the Democratic convention here, reporters were bent on determining where he stands -- or rather where he'll be standing tomorrow morning. Pawlenty, a much talked-about vice presidential prospect, said that he is "scheduled to be and plans to be" doing a weekly scheduled radio show from the Minnesota State Fair tomorrow morning at 9:00 am. He told reporters that he will be leaving Denver this afternoon, bound for his home state. The interest in Pawlenty's whereabouts comes amidst news that McCain will debut his vice...

A headline like that may seem inocuous enough, but amid the fevered speculation about whom John McCain will select as a vice presidential running mate, maybe it’s a tea leaf. Or maybe not. Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, in Denver as an unofficial Republican observer during the Democratic National Convention, has canceled several TV interviews that were scheduled for this afternoon, said a Republican spokesman. Pawlenty said his travel plans — he is scheduled to be at the Minnesota State Fair on Friday — remain unchanged. The governor, of course, has long been said to be on McCain’s list of potential...

Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty is in the Mile High City making stops on behalf of his friend and Republican presidential candidate John McCain. But most of the questions from the media involved what he's heard from Senator John McCain on whether he'll be joining the Republican ticket.

John McCain is expected to reveal his vice-presidential choice on Friday at a rally in the critical battleground state of Ohio. Mr McCain is seeking to blunt Barack Obama’s hopes of a bounce in the polls after he accepts the Democratic nomination in Denver tomorrow night. The Republican nominee’s move comes after a week in which he and his Republican surrogates have had significant success in inserting themselves aggressively into what was meant to be Mr Obama’s week. Republican guerrilla tactics and attack advertisements have forced the Democrat’s campaign to respond in kind. Mr McCain will appear at a midday...

Could John McCain pick Mike Huckabee as his running mate? Rich Lowry, the editor of National Review, posts some “idle speculation” (”There’s no indication that Huckabee is being considered …”) at The Corner. He writes: But wouldn’t Huckabee make a lot of sense given the things we’ve learned the last two weeks? 1) McCain might have a “wealth problem,” and certainly Democrats are going to try to hit his wealth for all its worth in their play for working-class voters; Huckabee doesn’t have a problem on this front, and has lots of working-class cred. 2) The pro-choice trial balloon hasn’t...

WASHINGTON — While this year's presidential election shows signs of drawing in more young voters than any since 1992, the candidates who pulled some of them into the Republican race are long gone — and it's unclear whether they've taken their young supporters with them. Once former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and Texas Rep. Ron Paul were both out of the race, their many young supporters were faced with a choice: Should they switch to the party's pick, find another candidate, cast a write-in vote or sit the election out?

Mike Huckabee on Tuesday said he has not been approached by John McCain about being the U.S. presidential candidate's running mate. But he'd certainly consider the offer. Huckabee said he didn't think anyone who has run for the U.S. presidency would turn down a chance to be vice president. The former Arkansas governor dropped out of the presidential race last March after McCain clinched the Republican nomination.Speaking to reporters in Jerusalem, Huckabee said he has received "no indication" that McCain is considering him as a running mate. But if asked, Huckabee said it would be hard to resist. "I don't think anybody that...

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain has a more stalwart view of Israel's security needs than his Democratic opponent and would be better able to deal with Iran's suspected nuclear weapons program, former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee said Monday. "McCain has a much stronger view of how Israel must protect itself," Huckabee said during a visit to Jerusalem. "There is no naivete on his part about the threat posed by Iran's nuclear program." Huckabee, a former governor of Arkansas and Baptist minister, said that McCain would turn out to be the preferred candidate of "traditional" American voters, including, but...

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, mentioned as a possible running mate for presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain, yesterday said he feels safer in Israel than in American cities. Huckabee made the comment as he headed off on a two-day trip to Israel, where he will meet with various groups to discuss the Mideast peace process, culture and international relations. When asked about security in the violence-plagued country, Huckabee - who ran for president before bowing out in March - said he was not worried.

On the day Mitt Romney bowed out of the presidential race last February, his supporters latched onto something of a consolation prize that appeared to bode well for his political future: the warm embrace of hundreds of conservatives whose seal of approval he had long sought. The enthusiastic ovations Mr. Romney received before and after his speech ending his campaign at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington seemed to signal that Mr. Romney had finally overcome doubts about his conservative credentials, as conservatives embraced him as a bona fide standard-bearer for the movement. Yet as Mr. Romney, a former...

(WASHINGTON) - Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee said he hopes John McCain will pick a pro-choice running mate but that he would support the party's nominee regardless of his vice presidential pick. "I hope that Senator McCain selects a pro-life running mate," the former Arkansas governor said at a press conference with evangelical leaders. "If he doesn't I will take some comfort in him being pro-life and hope that he would make sure that whoever his running mate may be would commit also to not changing any of the policies." "I don't know how people will respond," if McCain...

For the second consecutive day, Mike Huckabee made public statements suggesting John McCain ought not pick Mitt Romney as his running mate. “I think there are better choices for Sen. McCain that have the approval of value voters,” Huckabee said today on Fox News. Yesterday, he told CBS that many Republicans are "not necessarily comfortable" with Romney because of his changed positions. At the same time, Huckabee's Michigan supporters met with McCain social conservative liaison Marlys Popma last night in Saginaw. Though ostensibly held to discuss how Huckabee's loyalists can help McCain, supporters of the former Arkansas governor also used...

John McCain's trip through Michigan yesterday spurred some new Mitt Romney veep buzz, with U.S. Rep. Joe Knollenberg and Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox and other local Republican officials telling the Detroit Free Press they want the native son on their ticket. Yet, a Mike Huckabee activist also finds her way into the piece, criticizing Romney and pushing her man, who was falsely rumored to have shot a pilot for the Fox News Channel last weekend. From the Washington Times to the Columbus Dispatch, it seems that much of the anti-Romney fervor can be traced back to the tense animosity...

Here is video of Gov. Mike Huckabee, who today in an interview on Fox News Channel said that John McCain could do better than Gov. Mitt Romney as a Vice-Presidential choice. Huckabee was clear that he does not oppose Romney because of his Mormon faith, however, but said that many "values voters" find his inconsistencies on positions over the years to be troubling. . . .

Washington, D.C. (AHN) - Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee thinks having former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney as the vice presidential nominee is a bad idea, but not because Romney is a Mormon. "I think a lot of people, not just social conservatives, but a lot of the Republicans I know are not necessarily comfortable with Romney," he told CBS. "But it has nothing to do with religion. It has everything to do with inconsistencies in positions he's held, and that's it." Huckabee, a former Baptist minister whose long-shot presidential campaign was kept alive mainly by support from Evangelicals, was commenting...

Excerpt - Many FOMHs (Friends of Mike Huckabee) have been buzzing about the former governor’s new dental work. In fact, one longtime Huckabee pal, who asked not to be named, confirmed yesterday that Huckabee has traded in his God-given smile, which left a lot to be desired, for porcelain veneers. “It’s no secret that his (Huckabee’s) teeth were in bad shape,” the Huckabee friend said. “But, make no mistake about it, his new blinding-white grill will make Jessica Simpson jealous.” There is now visual evidence of Huckabee’s cosmetic dentistry. Here’s the before from Nov. 2007: ~ snip ~

From the beginning of this year's presidential primary season, the FOX News Channel (FNC) has hardly kept its preference as far as Republican candidates go a secret. In fact, FOX has alienated many of its viewers when on air-personalities, like Sean Hannity, openly stumped for former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney. Indeed, many blame Rupert Murdoch's network for tampering with the election which led to the primary victory of Sen. John McCain. It was obvious who FOX News personalities didn't like...

Huckabee backers least flexible Prominent evangelical leaders are warning Sen. John McCain against picking former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney as his running mate, saying their troops will abandon the Republican ticket on Election Day if that happens. They say Mr. Romney lacks trust on issues such as outlawing abortion and opposing same-sex marriage and because he is a Mormon.Opposition is particularly powerful among those who supported former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee in the Republican presidential primaries earlier this year. "McCain and Romney would be like oil and water," said evangelical novelist Tim LaHaye, who supported Mr. Huckabee. "We aren't against...

Trying to figure out the political mind of Focus on the Family leader Dr. James Dobson is like attempting to solve a Rubik's Cube while blind and, folks, I tried it and it can't be done. That's a bit of hyperbole I threw in this column just to make a point because even I'm not that stupid. But I would like to ask Dr. Dobson a question. Just the other day, Dobson apparently changed his mind and decided he could possibly support John McCain, who is the Republic Party's presumptive presidential nominee.

Less than one month after signing on as a Fox News commentator, Mike Huckabee is working aggressively to expand his media presence. This week, Huckabee is meeting with Fox officials about plans to host his own show on the network. Plus, he’s subbing for Paul Harvey on ABC Radio Network and appearing on a number of existing Fox shows. A former Arkansas governor who upended the Republican presidential race with his upset victory in the Iowa caucuses, Huckabee continued campaigning for the nomination after it became mathematically impossible for him to catch John McCain in the delegate race. That prompted...

Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee said Saturday he's not formally being vetted for the No. 2 spot on John McCain's presidential ticket. The former Arkansas governor, whose insurgent candidacy won the hearts of social conservatives and shook up the Republican presidential primary race, told Radio Iowa the McCain campaign has yet to ask him for any information pertaining to its VP vetting process. "If you're asking me have I had an official contact from the McCain campaign, no I have not. In all candor, no," he told the radio station. "No one has said, 'Hey, I need your tax...
