What was Huck promised so that he would stay in the race? I had no respect for Huck before this and now, he’s only prostituting himself.

Old news from wikipedia:

In the election of 1824, none of the candidates was able to secure a majority of the electoral vote, thereby putting the outcome in the hands of the House of Representatives, which (to the surprise of many) elected John Quincy Adams over rival Andrew Jackson. Henry Clay was the Speaker of the House at the time, and he convinced Congress to elect Adams. Adams then made Clay his Secretary of State. Some people believe that an agreement was made ahead of time between the two, what was referred to by the defeated Jackson as a “corrupt bargain.”

Yeah, it’s different this time around, but a deal has been made.

As a Baptist, I am embarrassed of Mike Huckabee.

In connection with his politics, he stands against everything I was taught in Sunday School and Church.

Backroom deals. Sleezy deals with a foul mouthed man (McCain) who has no value for Christians.

Until today, I was reluctant to accuse Huckabee of being a bad Christian.

Now I'm not so sure.

Huck will become ambassador to the Middle East so he can do some missionary work.

A political prostitute.

Now I'll vote for Hillary before I'd vote for McCain--or Huckabee.
