Has El Rushbo actually forgotten how our coalition was built?
"Both McCain and Huckabee are actively seeking support from non-Republicans. If I didn't know better, I'd say some of these candidates have some sort of grudge against the Republican Party and are trying to harm it."
Seems like he has. Think what you will about McCain or Huckabee, but Rush is not right on this one. In fact, there was another guy who appealed to Democrats and Independents in building a winning electoral coalition. Rush has heard of him... and even has an affectionate name for him: Ronaldus Magnus.
I know all the concerns people have about McCain -- and they are well founded. Trick is, in order to allow that Mitt Romney is a conservative, one must also assume Mike Huckabee is a conservative as well. Visit MikeHuckabee.com and view his positions on issues instead of listening to the establishment hit police. What you will see is the rebuilding of the coalition years of Bush/Clinton/Bush has eroded.

Welcome to FR. Nice vanity to kick things off. Too bad Reagan was appealing to conservative democrats and not the nanny state fans.

Yes, but Reagan appealed to Conservative Democrats and Independents. McCain and Huckabee aren't even trying to appeal to the Republican base.

Is this the vote for Huckabee he’s really conservative promotion? I think it is, and you ain’t convincing me of that.

McLame & Huckaboob are getting cross-over voters from the LIEberal DUmocrats, while Hunter will get support from the CONSERVATIVE “Reagan Democrats”.

Welcome to FR, in about 31 minutes.
The difference is that Reagan reached out to Dems and Indies with Conservative values, not liberal pap.

To: Quiverdaddy
Uh, there’s a difference between what Ronald Reagan did, which was to appeal to the conservative intincts of ordinary blue collar workers, and what Huckabee does, which is to appeal to bleeding heart liberals.

Did Reagan spend an entire career in the Senate sabotaging the Republican Party? I think not.
You disgust me, troll.
