I'll watch him in an hour, and tell you how I thought he did. He's the best politician and speaker of the lot.

Getting back to your original statement, which was a comparison between Limbaugh's corporate rah rahism, and Huckabee's quasi-populism, Huckabee will be easily more appealing to the average voter, especially in a general election.

Yes. I think he'll drive numerous kinds of people up their walls -- except for most voters.

Ping me with what you think. The time for serious policy commentary was very limited. He did get into momentary trouble on the bass, but pulled out of it quickly (a theme, it seems).

If he’s advocating populism he’s going to be out populisted by the dems. Class warfare is their stock in trade. They wrote the playbook. Those so inclined to that message will vote for the dems.

He is the best politician and speaker of the GOP lot. I’ll give you that.

I can top him as a speaker and a comedian. Do I have your vote?

Once the laughter has died down and the party is over, you’ll find out the joke was on you sucker.

Yeah right, because the average voter really thinks that people with Aids should be hauled off and quarantined.
