Hewitt is hardly believable anymore due to his shameless shilling for Romney. That being said he is correct on this one.
Truth is Huckabee fell straight into the hands of the right wing enemy and Romney is feeding them for his own personal gain, which is much more despicable than asking a question in my opinion.
Just tuned into the Laura Ingraham radio show, and she was tearing Huckabee a new one, right to his face (or voice) — during an interview.
Ingraham and others with good political saavy can easily see that a Huckabee nomination would pidgeon-hole the Republican Party into an “evangelical only” party — and thus feed directly into the notion that we are a narrow-minded private club.
I’ve gotten a sick feeling in my stomach ever since Huckabee rose in the polls. In fact, GUILIANI would tear the party apart LESS than Huckabee — and that’s saying something because a Guiliani nomination would also doom the GOP in ‘08.
I hate to see talk show hosts and pundits have to go negative on Huckabee, who seems a good an decent man, but we cannot stand idly by and watch him take this party down.
And I’m about as strick and conservative a Baptist church-attender as you can imagine.
So telling the truth is shilling? This needed to be said and Hewitt said it very well.
