Mike Huckabee puts on his best Rodney Dangerfied routine, whining to Ben Smith and Jonathan Martin that no one shows him any respect as a 2012 contender:
"I just don't understand how it is that a person can read these polls day after day and the narrative is constantly everybody but me," he told POLITICO. "Whether I do it or not, the fact is that if one looks at the overall body of information that's available, nobody would be in a better position to take it all the way to November."
There are a few good reasons for this. Most important, he has a rather cheesy show on Fox News, so it's a bit hard to imagine him giving that up and stepping back into the political ring. Ah, but Sarah Palin has a show with bears and canoes, so why is breezy TV fare a barrier to a political career? Well, it may be, in part for Palin. And Huckabee is no Palin when it comes to juicing up the base.
Moreover, Huckabee never showed much appeal beyond a specific segment of voters -- evangelical Christians. They are an important constituency within the GOP primary electorate, but you have to win more than just those voters to get the nomination; Huckabee never did....

All we need to know about the Huck is he’s the media’s darling.
You are correct....he pardoned some unsavory characters while Governor of Arkansas even over the objections of the local prosecutors and with very snarky notes on letters of pleading. One turned out to be a murderer of police officer(s) in the State of Washington. I expect a through search of the records might turn up more such shortcomings in judgment.
I am a white Southern Baptist.....so by the democrat / msm rules of identity politics Huck should be my guy. He strikes me as a phony, however, so I wouldn’t vote for him in the primary as long as most any other candidate is still in the running. If he were the nominee I guess I would hold my nose, but I wouldn’t like it.
It was the Huck family photo where everyone was dressed like Howdy Doody is the one that did it for me.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND...STOP...OK
Mikey just don't understand
This dumb ass has a weekend filler show on a 24 hour cable company that is trying to sell commercials and pay him s few bucks.
This is the best gig that fat huck has ever had and he doesn't have the balls to risk running for President and losing this sweet money maker.
Besides, according to huck,"I just don't understand".
He plays the bass guitar. Entertaining in itself, to a point. After all you’ve only got low E, D, A and G. on it.
Huck needs to call the waaambulance
