Huckabee sounds like a GOPE operative whose mission is to take down Cruz.
“Huckabee sounds like a GOPE operative whose mission is to take down Cruz.”
It’s been clear for quite some time that Huckabee is on the side of the GOPe. When he had his show, he had on Mitch McConnell and other guests from the Establishment. When he first entered this race (before Trump thankfully messed up everyone’s calculations), I highly suspected he was a stalking horse for Jeb. The remarks he made — like all senators running ought to resign their current positions because “you can’t effectively do two jobs at once” — were so blatantly self-serving, and that remark in particular was highly inconsistent with his dead silence on the issue back in 2008 when Sen. McCain was the one he made the alliance with. Notice also that he doesn’t mention that at all these days since he appears to have thrown in with Rubio.
Huckabee is a great talker, and I agree with a lot of the things he says. I also believe he is a Christian. But we all have blind spots, he has a major blind spot when it comes to his actions during this (and the 2008) campaign. I personally don’t think his smear campaign will have much effect on Cruz in Iowa. Voters are much smarter than many of these politicians give them credit for. But it is a sad thing to watch.
As he did to help the traitor McCain win in 2008 b y drawing away evangelical votes from Romney...not that Mittens would have beaten the Great Black Hope either.

Bam!
You nailed it.
Suckabee is hardly much different in his ethical ineptitude as Joel Osteen, the false prophet of the Summit.
