Romney camp responds:
http://thepage.time.com/response-to-huckabee-event-from-romney-campaign/
Good afternoon, folks-
For those of you who saw it with your own eyes, theres no need for me to describe how bizarre it was.
But for those of you who didnt, The Politico has a report of Mike Huckabees meltdown at a campaign press conference today where he displayed a negative TV ad attacking Governor Romney, at the same time he said he was running a positive campaign.

I don’t know if I would call that a meltdown, but it is pretty funny.
To: Tossup
Is he trying to get the ads out there without paying?

Come now, this is hardly a melt down. He would have had done far more damage to Mitt had he run the ads on television stations. His campaign pressed him to run the ads, he pulled them. He showed them to the media to prove he had made the ads, so they would not accuse him of making it up.
The things the campaign had prepared about Mitt were not untrue, most of it is already in the public discussoin at this point.

Enough is Enough, Huckabee.
Just call him Mr. Passive Agressive Man.

Being a gentleman, I won’t mention how you beat your wife, but rather I will stick to the issue at hand.
To: Tossup
Look, see, we’re not going to be running this ad, and let me stand back so you can focus your camera on the screen. What? Oh, sure, all of that attack is true, uh-huh, but we’re sure that the voter doesn’t want a negative campaign. We’re taking the high road. Hmm? Oh, right, let me make sure you can see this placard here with the truth about Romney. Yup, we’re taking the high road here, ending this constant cycle of negative coverage. Hmm? Oh, we’re not really going to talk about the ad, because we’re not running it, but we’ll keep the disc looping for you so you can get additional shots of it for your coverage...

Stupid is as stupid does. Either attack or not don’t play stupid and withdrawal before the big moment. All that does is disappoint and leave no one satisfied.

The Huckenanny hasn't melted down yet.
You'll know the moment when he starts scarfing down a Big Mac while he lights up a cigarette.

It sure is like amateur hour on the Huckabus. Wonder if this brain trust will be advising President Huckabee?
To: Tossup
Huckabee walks a fine line, sometimes with his foot on one side, sometimes on another.
The liberal media gets miffed.
The backers of other GOP candidates try to make hay, while Huckabee gets to the voters with positive messages, while painting Romney as an untrustworthy man.

I see we have another MittWitt N00b.
If you think this is a story wait till you hear about how Mitt and his dad both marched with Martin Luther King!
