What is it about Mike that makes him so appealing, anyway? What’s the logic behind his improbable rise?

Why do I like Mike so much? For the same reason I prefer Shane over Sergio Leone’s “spaghetti westerns?” For the same reason I prefer “It’s a Wonderful Life” at Christmas time over “Bad Santa.” For the same reason I prefer Michelangelo and Vermeer over Andy Warhol and Jackson Pollock. For the same reason I prefer Dublin over Paris or Prague over Amsterdam. For the same reason I prefer baseball over football. For the same reason I prefer Pentecostalism over my Episcopal roots. For the same reason I prefer the politics of uplift and inspiration to the politics of axe grinding and sterility.

That may not make much sense to the esteemed and learned in the Republican Party, but I don’t think it needs to. I like Mike! I like his vertical politics. I like Mike! As Forrest Gump said, “That’s all I’m going to say about that.”

Wow. This guy is really convincing. We need to make him Huckabee's campaign manager! He probably gets at least 3 visits a day to his blog.

He would have to fight the drunk Ed Rollins for that title.

You like Mike and then he will be president of USA !
That’s a good reason! Ha ha ha hum.
Mike HUCK has the fans he deserves

For the same reason I prefer Shane over Sergio Leone’s “spaghetti westerns?”

Strange analogy, considering that both Shane and the Man with No Name were strong, silent types, who did violence to bad men when necessary, and Huck is a soft, babbling airhead who just wants to get along with evil.

Huckster! Huckster! GO AWAY! {as he is seen riding off to the political graveyard}
