Or perhaps, three guys who all are looking out for Number 1 all in a boat together.
Huck is a sham, not nearly as polished as the Sham Romney or as personable as the sham Rudy or as historical as the sham McCain. But he is a sham as most politicians are
I knew Dick was, though he said he was unpaid and he really really has been schilling for huck for a while. But Newt?
Dick Morris worked on Huckabee’s first gubernatorial campaign in Arkansas.
Morris hates Hillary.
I’m betting each of them are working harder at helping themselves than anyone else.
Good grief.
Given Morris’ record on brining in AR trash, I think this should raise some eyebrows. It’s obvious who wants this guy, the media and Democrats. Newt’s just trying to stay relevant and in the limelight.
Bottom line: Huck is not qualified and would be a disaster.
This is nothing new. Dick has been pulling hucks strings for a long time. Also carpethead Frank Luntz with his traveling circus groups.
Huckster is not a conservative, and he is barely considered a Republican.
I don’t trust Morris. I certainly do not trust Gingrich.
It smells like forces are afoot to give us pro-life liberal who can be an agent of change. Agent of change being the operative code word.
Perhaps the GOP is tired of pretending to be the party of ANY conservatives. Maybe the GOP is tired of pretending it is not just a clone of the Democrats. Perhaps the goal is not electing a Republican, but the GOP wants a liberal, regardless of which party gets the win.
Between Ron Paul raising millions of dollars, and the Huckster getting all kinds of help from friends and “foes” alike, and a good man like Duncan Hunter getting no traction or recognition,to getting libs like Romney and Guiliani spouting conservative principles which are foreign to their record to date,to McCain now claiming he was never for amnesty, this whole campaign is starting to creep me out.
Plus I have a President who cannot seal the southern border, a Congress that betrays me by telling me they will build a fence and then defunding it, a Federal bureaucracy that defies Congress and is hell bent on continuing the Mexican truck driver project, and a foreign policy that wants to deal with terrorist states like Syria,Iran and North Korea, and betray allies like Israel—all this is not looking at the Bizarro World.
Things are not making any sense, and I see that something evil this way comes. In 1992, I could see the evil clearly coming from Bill Clinton. In 2008, I fear there is something sinister coming from the GOP itself.
God helps us if Fred Thompson is not our nominee. Everyone else will get trounced by any of the Dems candidates, because there won’t be ounce of difference between the two parties anymore.
I like Dick Morris, but as a political pundit he is hardly Cassandra. I also like Newt, but it seems he is always trying to be a maverick as a pundit. How Newt though who was willing to shut down the Congress over the budget is willing to support someone that raised taxes is beyond me though.
Sure Huckabee is for the fair tax now, but his background doesn’t show this to be more than a political gambit.
I would like to like Gov. Huckabee considering his stands on pro-life and social issues. But he reminds me too much of Jimmy Carter another Southern Baptist who was pro-life and naive on foreign policy. I voted for Jimmy Carter (who made me a conservative) and I don’t want to make that mistake again.
Morris gives good advice, though he is a bit creepy. I’m waiting for Ed Rollins to sink the campaign. Rollins is an out-of-control blowhard, and at some point he’s going to shoot off his mouth and embarrass the Huckster badly. How this guy keeps getting hired, I’ll never figure out.
Great! Two failures with delusions of being puppet masters for a yokel.
Maybe. But then again, maybe Dickie the toe sucker is still working for the Clintons by promoting the most beatable opponent possible.
” informed that Dick Morris and Newt Gingrich are helping Huckabee behind the scenes. “
Dick took out his ol’ Clinton kneepads some months ago for Huckabee.
Why would Gingrich stoop to helping this guy? Newt is a smart man. Nobody else cared for Newt’s latest thing?
Not surprising at all. Gingrich and Morris are both dumpy doughy guys, Huck’s major consistency.
“I am informed that Dick Morris and Newt Gingrich are helping Huckabee behind the scenes.”
Informed by whom?
By a little birdie?
Well, that should be a real candidate killer!
