One of the great things about Huckabee is his ability to connect with ordinary people. He is a great communicator. While other candidates claim to be pro life, Huckabee would use the bully pulpit to sway public opinion and move the country in the right direction. I think that he will also have a real chance of getting the Fair Tax implemented because he will be able to sell it to the American people and create a groundswell of support.
Ol’ Sparky,
You are from Arkansas, do you think Huckabee did a good job as governor?
Even if the Huck cared about Life he would still be a socialist.
I'm not from Arkansas. But, I do think Huckabee did a much better job than his critics are giving him credit for. His record on social issues is as good as any I have seen. I think he did pretty well on taxes considering what he had to work with.
The attacks on Huckabee strike me as largely because he is an actual Christian that will take action on social issues that the Republican hierarchy generally wishes would go away.
