She said, "I don't agree with most of his policies, but I got the feeling that he's genuine and quick-witted and respects other people.

That’s just what this country needs; more people who vote with their heart and “feelings” instead of with their head and intellect. Please tell your friend to stay home on Election Day.

I think Mike Huckabee is a very sincere guy and devout in his Christian beliefs. Jimmy Carter was also devout in his Christian beliefs as he understands them and certainly and quick-witted enough to be a Naval nuclear engineer and he was probably one of the worst Presidents in history.

I disregard a candidate’s professed religion as any sort of litmus test. I don’t care one wit what any of the candidate’s personal religious beliefs are or what church they belong to or how often they go and I’m getting really tired of these endless arguments regarding religion.

I don’t care if Huckabee “respects other people”. I want to know if he “respects” and understands the Constitution, the Bill of Rights as written and intended by our Founders; does he believe in a limited Constitutional Government and the Rule of Law? That’s my litmus test and Huckabee, among many others in the current field get a failing grade in my opinion.

It truly makes no difference what Huckabee says. He could be saying something they agree with completely, or he could just be remarking that the sky is blue today. Whatever he says, it's just more proof that he's a tax-loving, unethical, lying, illegal-alien-coddling SOCIALIST!!!

His record speaks for it’s self. He is a Nanny State loving, tax loving, illegal-alien-coddling Christian Socialist.

“I think Mike Huckabee is a very sincere guy and devout in his Christian beliefs. Jimmy Carter was also devout in his Christian beliefs as he understands them and certainly and quick-witted enough to be a Naval nuclear engineer and he was probably one of the worst Presidents in history.”

Being “devout” isn’t enough, being right is more important. Jimmy Carter was NEVER a true Southern Baptist, and he and his church represented the now gone left wing of the SBC. Jimmy Carter’s church, along with Jimmy, withdrew their association from the SBC because it had grown “too conservative” for them.

In truth there is NO real comparison between Carter and Huckabee. That is a gross misrepresentation that the rabid supporters of other candidates have started because they can’t stand to see Huckabee do well. I’m certain an over zealous one will eventually compare Huckabee to Hitler.

I personally don’t hold the candidate responsible for the actions of their adherents. I like Mike Huckabee, but I would rather see him as a VP to Thompson. I don’t like Thompson as much, but at this time in history, I think he would make a better president. Huckabee would shore up Thompson with the moral conservatives. Thompson could tutor Huckabee for a future run as president.

Oh BTW - being “clever” means being quick on your feet with a timely comeback. Ronald Reagan was a master at being clever. I’m not saying Huckabee is a Ronald Reagan, but his wit is very reaganisk.
