Huckabee: Palin “May Run Away With It”

Mike Huckabee was in Iowa today for an event with an Iowa social conservative group that he made clear was a political event. In numerous statements, he has implied as strong as he is can that he is gearing up for another run at the White House in 2012. He even sent a “secret” signal to his supporters by wearing a purple tie. An inside joke among his devotes is that wearing a purple tie is a signal that he is likely running in 2012.

In his meeting with reporters, he indicated that he certainly takes a potential challenge from Sarah Palin seriously. From the Des Moines Register blog…

“No question, she will be a very, very strong presence and force, if she gets in,” Huckabee told reporters in Des Moines Sunday. “You know, she may run away with it. And that’s one of those things everyone needs to be prepared for.”

“If I get in, I prefer she not and that she endorse me,” Huckabee then joked.

Palin will be in Little Rock for her book tour on Tuesday, November 30 at 5:30 pm at Sam’s. No word if she will meet with the press but this might be something to ask her about.

If Palin chose a conservative black man as he rVP running mate, the blacks would abandon Obastard in droves.

Depends on who it is. She needs to pick a southern evangelical type, one that can identify with the black, southern, church-going voter. This should secure enough of the black vote to counter Obummer's race cards in borderline states.

You know. Thats what the left wants us to think. Maybe if you grew a spine, you would see that we need to fight for what we believe in. We can’t appease the liberals and the media.

Palin is the absolute best we have. She could fill up any basketball arena in the country with a 12 hour notice.

I wound like to punch people who say she unelectable.

“Mitch Daniels”

The RINO from Indiana who says we need to ditch the prolife issue?

Wasn’t he Bush’s Budget director (or should I say, Budget Buster Director)? Why would anyone support the guy who helped get us in the fix that lost Congress and gave us Obama?

The rats always telegraph which republican candidate they are most scared of and Palin scares them shitless.The barnes campaign in the georgia governors race named Nathan Deal as the republican they wanted because they could beat him.Nathan Deal beat the rat bastard by 250,000 votes.Learn from history.Its so easy.

“Ah the HospiceRN attacks again....you really love trolling Palin threads eh?”

I refer to her as the “Angel of Dearth” because there is so little to her arguments.

Pathetic. Is it her prolife stand that infuriates you? Or is it your crush on Mittens?

I am prolife and I don't know what you mean by "mittens".

Sarah Palin does more to promote the conservative movement on a lazy afternoon than you will do in your entire miserable life. Live with it, fool.

But you further my point. Yes, she’s great at filling an auditorium. She makes a great fundraiser, with people like us. However, she’s polarizing as all heck. Although I hate to say it, she’s very much like Hillary! in that it’s pretty easy for the other side to marginalize her with the independents.
The biggest problem that any GOP candidate will have in 2012 is that blacks will vote for Obummer in large numbers, and in extremely large percentages.

I will debate you forever, politely without personal attacks. Name calling and sexism are unbecoming on FR.

LOL- someone needs to tell HospiceRN there is no skill in making a dying person comfortable. Is there any validity that she likes Slick Willard? That would make too much sense...

I can’t find a logical reason in my mind. I have tried. I have thought it over and out. I have tried to see it from every angle possible. and I can’t find a reason why someone could hate Sarah Palin. What did she do to them ?

maybe you can help me out here. words of wisdom. you are so much older and wiser right ?

I’ve yet to see anything remotely right wing about you.

Trolls that jump on a thread and throw troll, hijack bombs, are not looking for debate, you have already played your hand.

She likes Willard but claims not to know that one of his names around these parts is “Mittens”.
