SARAH PALIN'S PING LIST
Just tonight on Greta's, Huckabee said, he would be happy if 50 million people would each send his campaign $10.
The publishing of this article only makes sense if Palin is the presumptive nominee.
Winning Iowa is way overrated.
Reload, never retreat.
Gomer Pyle doesn’t stand a chance.
Why doesn't Frum write "How Huckabee could stop Obama"?
The thing with all the Romneyiacs, and the McCainiacs, and the Hucklers, is that the first thing they think about when they think 2012 is how to stop Palin. All Palin thinks about is how to stop Obama. Focus your war on Obama and your rivalry with your fellow Repubs will take care of itself. Focus all your bile on your fellow Repubs, focus your bile on Repubs who are too busy fighting Obama to fight back against you, and you've told me what you think is really important. And it isn't America.
Frum long ago gave up whatever credibility he had. The funny thing is, though, he is useful as a marker. Like the disgraceful McCainiacs who have spent all their ammo going after Palin even while they were supposedly working for her, anyone who accepts his support, anyone who hires the McCain crew, has just betrayed himself too.
Its funny to see Frum talking about "division, disparagement, and resentment in which Palin specializes" when in fact that is exactly what she doesn't do, and it is exactly what he does do.
It’s an interesting little read actually, in terms of reminding us that Huckabee as a political candidate has some very big national strengths. Personally I think Sarah can beat him but things will have to go her way (duh, like all successful political runs). The media may choose Huck over Mitt who knows.
David Frum’s mother was a government propagandist on television and radio here in Canada (CBC).
David Frum: You establishment types don’t have as firm a
grasp as you think. Do you think Mitt or Huckleberry
brought that tidal wave to the polls a month ago? Better
start looking for a job at the NYT or WAPO soon!
Should he run and/or receive the GOP nomination, he will be hammered with this episode (quite effectively I believe) in the same way which Dukakis was...
?Or this?

This article was obviously put out by the Huckabee people. The article says that Huckabee is smart and policy minded, and that this makes him very different than Sarah who must therefore be stupid and ignorant of policy.
The larger point of the article is that Huckabee is the only one who can save the Republicans from Sarah Palin but the Republicans are too stupid to realize it.
Huckabee doesn't have the courage to call Sarah Palin stupid to her face. He has to get other people to write articles praising him and calling her names.
Frum trying to prop up Suckabee?
Too bad. Maurice Clemmons has already torpedoed Suckabee’s chances at a second run.
Onyx,
David Frum is a wishful thinking idiot. Huckabee hates Romney with a passion. He would give up all his delegates to Palin to stop Romney. And if he even appeared to be thinking of joining forces with Romney, his own supporters would desert him. They really hate Romney.
A Love Letter to Gomer Huckleberry from Frum. Shouldn’t they get a room? Ever had fried squirrel cooked up on a popcorn popper burner, David?
ROFLOL!! Frum is an idiot!!
But Huckabee is a very different cat from Sarah Palin. He’s smart and policy-minded.
Smart? I don't think so. Huckabee was stupid and arrogant in Arkansas. He parachuted into more than 1,000 legal cases in Arkansas and replaced the judges' and juries' decisions with his own. His grants of clemency were SICKENING. They put the people of Arkansas in danger, as well as the rest of the country. How David Frum can call Huckabee smart is beyond me. If Huckabee was actually smart, he wouldn't have let the guy out of prison who went on to murder four Washington state police officers. And he wouldn't have spent valuable time granting clemency in more than a thousand other cases, as well.
“... Huckabee himself is also persona non grata with party leaders, because of his repeated criticism of Wall Street and Wall Street minded GOP insiders.
But Huckabee is a very different cat from Sarah Palin. He’s smart and policy-minded. And while he expresses a strong social conservative message, he does not play the politics of division, disparagement, and resentment in which Palin specializes ... “
This link provides recent poling data regarding Obama, Romney, Huckabee, and Palin as well as some others. Romney vs. Obama comes out 1% ahead. Huckabee vs. Obama comes out 2% behind. These figures are within the margin of error. Palin comes out around 10% behind. However, since FReepers hate Romney, she stands a good chance of lots of support.
Will be interesting to see what role Rick Perry plays as head of the Republican Governors during the next election. Sarah did campaign in Texas for him when he was running for Governor and she has two book signings in our state next week.
