Now if you think a national smoking ban, high taxes, open borders and government health police are good for America, then Huck is your guy.
I used to think Bill Clinton was Elmer Gantry but the Huckster really takes the cake.
In all seriousness, Huckabee is a liberal who happens to be pro life. He is in the wrong party. He might do better against Hillary running for the Democratic nomination. If we have Republican in the GOP who are pro-choice and the Dems have pro-life Blue Dog Democrats from conservative states.
Huckabee should change party affiliations.
Rudy/Huckabee vs. Hillary/Bill
“The “value voter” supporters of Huckabee just might get what they apparently want....Rudy/Hillary.”
No, in my opinion you are wrong. As a “moral values voter” I would simply like to see Senator Thompson move more to the right on moral issues. He needs to become a strongly outspoken opponent of the homosexual agenda...and stop using his “federalism” as an excuse not to be. I believe him already pretty solid on opposing abortion.
A pledge to veto any homosexual rights/protection legislation would be a nice start. A pledge to work to keep homosexuals out of military service...and public service would also be a nice touch.
Finally a clear cut pledge to appoint only SCOTUS nominees that are originalists (meaning they interpret the constitution and ammendments based on their original intent, and don’t add to or take from that) would also be great.
However, if you just want to blow off “value voters” as irrelevant and not heed their concerns, then if Hillary gets elected because Guiliani gets the nomination....then blame yourselves not us. We clearly warned you what we intended to do. If you (meaning Senator Thompson)want our votes, then meet our perceived needs....even if you don’t agree.
