RINO.
Like Huckabee, Jimmy Carter ran as a “Christian” and voters honestly believed he would advance Christian values. But Carter’s presidency greatly harmed the agenda of social conservatives. Huckabee is the same threat Carter was.
I’d drink decaf before I’d drink from that cup ..
Boy, people on here sure like to find things to bitch about.
Confirming my suspicion that "independents" just don't know how to spell "idiot."
That may be true, but Huckabee is proof that social conservatism is just as important to some as fiscal conservatism. I think the evangelicals are just tired of being kicked around, and told that if we don’t like what’s being done in the party that we can just leave.
These comments, by the way are coming from someone who is still undecided.
It's not about the candidate or his positions on important issues, it's all about "me" and how important he makes "me" "feel".
We're in trouble.
Geez - these people can be bought cheap.
I’d hold out for some Krispy Kreme donuts!
"My suggestion is that if he (Obama) makes it, then (John) Edwards should be his vice president," Legay said.
"I was originally a (Fred) Thompson supporter, but I was unhappy with the amount of time he spent here," Hay, 48, said.
WTF?!?! Damned fool.
Huckabee is a threat to economic conservatives but no threat to social conservatives. Even though I'm not a Huckabee supporter, I am confident that he is the most opposed of the candidates to abortion and the gay agenda.
...and his sister Muff Diver.
Just out of curiosity, as I'm certainly one of the fiscal conservatives - would you mind telling me when you last viewed us fiscal conservatives getting our way?
“I was originally a (Fred) Thompson supporter, but I was unhappy with the amount of time he spent here,”
It’s not about the candidate or his positions on important issues, it’s all about “me” and how important he makes “me” “feel”.
We’re in trouble.
“WE” kimosabe.. ? :-|
I saw that. Public school product, no doubt.
The Lumster: “Geez - these people can be bought cheap.”
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Anyone who would vote based on a free cup of coffee shouldn’t be voting in the first place. But, of course, the voter didn’t change his vote. He was more interested in catching a ride on the latest craze—the O Train.
We haven't been getting our way (I'm a fiscal conservative as well as a social conservative). My point was that social conservatism explains the Huckabee phenomenon.
That’s two different people you’re quoting from.
OH lol no wonder I was confused. I skipped the paragraph in between the two quotes on accident.
Kerry, Edwards, and Obama is a love triangle.
“Even though I’m not a Huckabee supporter, I am confident that he is the most opposed of the candidates to abortion and the gay agenda.”
I’m confident Huckabee would compromise his position on these two issues. He’s not solid.
Look how quickly he shied away from the cross in his Christmas ad. Huckabee denied the cross for political reasons.
