I was listening to a CATO institute this morning on WRVA. Huckabee got an "F" from the institute as the "Huckabee: The Biggest Big-Government Conservative"

Is it possible Huckabee is to the left of Jimmy Carter?

Ah yes, the pro-gay CATO Institute who is just fine and dandy with a social liberal.

The GOP is composed of multiple factions, each with its own
priorities. Unforntunately this election cycle, too many members of
the various factions in our coalition are seeking their own faction’s
ideal candidate, without regard to the opinions of other factions. The
only result of such an attitude will be the destruction of the
coalition that is the GOP.

We must unite behind a candidate that is at least acceptable to all
the major factions, and who also has a reasonable chance to run an
effective, winning campaign in the general election.

Not sure why there’s so much surprise at the Huckster’s rise. He’s essentially Bush’s ideological heir. Both are big govt “compassionate” conservatives who voice religious nonsense ad nauseum.
