I don’t understand where the media getting support for Huckabee, because all of my friends share the view you posted.
Huckabee probably will win in Iowa. The media isn’t making it up. What I make of it is some kind of protest vote by certain segments of the Christian conservative community. They don’t see anyone in the race they can support so they’ve willfully blinded themselves to Huckabee’s monumental, major and extremely dangerous flaws and are supporting him on the basis of his pro-life record. Go figure.
I am afraid the Republican Establishment is going to pay a high price in 2008 for taking the Value Voters for granted over the years.
Going to be intresting to see if the Pro Lifers or the Limited Govt Conservative win this fight. Both sides are convinced the party "has betrayed them" and neither side is the least bit intrested in compromising with the other side. In addition both sides are convinced "they are the base of the party".
