Uh-oh! Huckabee can't even get his own co-religionists behind him?

Welcome to the camp
I guess you know why I’m here
My name is Huckster
And I’m being pushed this year
If you want to follow me
You have to play pinball
And put in the earplugs
Put on the eye shades
You know where to put the cork...

People are always mistaking the Baptists for the "split Baptists". Still, they aen't as bad as the independent Christian churches who regularly spin off a new congregation once they get up near 100 members.
No way this Novak guy understands any of this.

Yah. It’s treating as news that a denomination of over 15 million is supporting more than one candidate. No “ut oh” more like “so what?”

I have found that most people in the MSM have no clue about Protestants or even Catholics and the Prince of Darkness is no exception.
BTW, I will never vote for the pro-open border wishy washy Huckster!

Raised Southern Baptist, and now a Methodist, I can safely say, it takes a Baptist to know a Baptist.

"Slick Mickey" Huckabee is too reminiscent of Bill Clinton.
Fool me once...

I was raised a Southern Baptist too, converted to Episcopal & then jumped off that sinking ship - now I’m a non-denominational Christian.
You’re right - it definitely takes a Baptist to know a Baptist - no one in the media knows Baptists.

Due to the magic of computers, we can how see Mike Huckabee as he looks late in his first term as President:

Conservatives who take a close look Spit on Huck.

I’m a Baptist, and so is the rest of my family. My dad is either hard-headed, or a fanatic, because he has told me on numerous occasions he would not vote for a Mormon, but instead he is voting for Huck (in large part, if not wholly because Huck is/was an ordained minister). I’ve also told him on numerous occasions that Huck is just a Dem who is pro-life. Huck is soft on crime, pro-big government, and probably would be weak on national defense (given that he has absolutely no idea of what is going on in the world around us, and the threat of Islamic extremist). One thing my dad stumped me on was this: Huck is for the fair tax, thereby pretty much abolishing the IRS to some extent. If that’s the case, then how can he be pro-big government. My best guess is that the fair tax would bring in a comparable amount of money in relation to the existing tax structure. Given that people will pretty much be able to decided, to some extent, how much they pay in taxes, there would be a slight decline in tax revenue for the government. However, since we would be using a fair tax system, the IRS would be obsolete, but there would have to be an establishment, so some extent, to collect the money (although I’m sure this establishment would be far smaller as compared to the IRS), right? That being said, would the government be able to make up the difference for the deficit by abolishing the IRS, thereby giving the government as much money as they have today for big government? Can someone help me on this? I need to lure my dad away from the dark side.
Go Fred Go

That’s funny. My mom just said to me the other day that she doesn’t think she could vote for the Huckster cause he reminded her too much of the president from 24!

Some Baptists don’t agree with Tax Hike Mike that money belongs to the guvmint (which graciously lets you keep some of it for yourself)? I’m shocked!

Huckster’s record shows that tax increases are his option of first resort and spending restraint is just not on the table. With that mindset, taxes (whether it’s the existing income tax, the FairTax, whatever) are bound to go up (especially if the Democrats increase their hold on Congress, which seems likely).

Make it two. I will not vote for the Hulkster. Nor will I vote for Rudi or most of the other wannabees. It is either Hunter or Fred, or basically, I am staying home. I am tired of voting for people who lie their way to the nomination. And, don’t hand me that if I stay home, I it is like a vote for Hillary garbage. I am one who actually votes with my conscience. If I cannot live with my conscience, then I cannot vote for that person. I don’t vote for the LESSER of two evils. To me EVIL is EVIL, whether the most or lesser of it. Would you vote for a little bit of Satan over Satan himself? Not me. These people who cry that crap do not influence me one bit. I will vote for Hunter or Fred or no one. That simple. Because my vote for any of the others is like a vote for Hillary or Obama anyway. They are the same.
