Good job Fred!
Someone needs to photoshop Huckabee into the Supernanny poster.
That is what I thought, I knew it would be a pro Fred video, but this one is just magnificent, something this good is partially luck, kind of like a really good take in a movie when everyone knows that things just really clicked for some reason.

FRED PING!!
From his own pocket, perhaps. Without $17.5 million in loans from himself, he'd be about $8M to $9M in the hole right now.
Of course, back in the winter, he was firmly against using his own money to finance his campaign, but he's flip-flopped on that, too.
Ow, Fred! That’s going to leave a mark on Huckster.
Huckabee attacked Fred about his pragmatic way to deal with abortion aired on yesterday Meeting the Press. A Fox guy asked about Huckabee's attack this morning in New Hampshire. Fred's response was that he has 100% pro-life voting record, being pro-life all his life. The abortion issue is the only issue that Huckabee is conservative. He is for sanctuary state for Arkansas, not just city. He got D rate from Cato, like Bill Clinton. He raised tax.
Drive by? I don’t think so. I just know a “phony” when I see one. That’s where I compare him to Edwards. “Impeccable personal life”. I guess Edwards could make the same claim. They both have great hair. They still are both phony’s. Go back and check out Romney’s campaigns for Senate against Kennedy and when he campaigned for Governor. About half way through his term as Governor he started tacking right in preparation for this campaign.
Iowans don’t live in a vacuum. They have access to all the media that the rest of us do. If they can’t figure out who is the best candidate from all the information out there and instead will opt for the campaign that spends the most money, then they deserve what they get.
FDT is in NH today and it’s the same media story that supposedly voters in NH say he hasn’t spent enough time in the state. His response is that he’s been there two times in two weeks and there will be many more visits. He’s just getting started. And I imagine it will be the same for Iowa.
When a candidate visits a state, we only need to see that candidate once or twice and then read the Q&A that went back and forth. Chances are all our questions will be answered.
Huckabee said FDT was soft on abortion whereas FDT countered ‘look at the record! 100% prolife voting record!’. If you are an Iowan and abortion is your issue, you have to be real dense not to see Huckabee’s desperation. And I know from experience that most Iowans are sharp as tacks.
Watch polls of likely caucus goers and stay away from the misleading RCP average. Look at the internals.
Myth Romney can loan himself as much money as he wants, but he doesn’t have any cash-on-hand advantage. All the money in the world won’t help him when the TV ads start for the other guys.
Huckabee and Thompson are coming on strong in Iowa. The real fight doesn’t even begin until after tomorrow, which is 2007 election day.
McCain is putting everything he’s got into NH. So is Ron Paul. Rudy is trying for NH too. I think it will be a free-for-all. Fred’s not doing much there, which I think may well end up being wise. Leave it to the dogs to fight over, while concentrating on more important places.
The conventional wisdom of Romney being a lock in IA and NH is cooked up by people who are incapable of looking beyond a few current polls at a dynamic race. It’s also being used as propaganda material by rabid Romney supporters. It’s not much more than that though.
The race IS dynamic and there WILL be more to it than currently meets the eye.
IMHO, Romney’s leads are not commanding enough to survive the coming onslaught of other candidates advertising.

Excellent!
If that Arkansas huckster wants to go back in time ... here one for the huckster that fits him both then and now.
The biggest show in town is Huckleberry Hound
For all you guys and gals.
The biggest clown in town is Huckleberry Hound
With all his cartoon pals.
It’s Huckleberry fun, it’s for everyone,
So come on, gather ‘round.
Get yourself all set,
Turn on your TV set
For Huckleberry Hound.
That oh, so merry, Chuckleberry,
Huckleberry Hound.
After MTP and today on Fox, it appears Fred is going to be making a surge in the polls.
B*tch Slap!
I hope you’re right. I have an open ear on all the candidates except two and those two are Romney and Paul. Paul is more of an annoyance, but Romney stirs up all my negative instincts which I have grown to listen to over the years.
“Which is exactly why Huckabee went after Fred first.”
I missed it. What did Huckabee say about Fred? Thanks!
BUMP!
