Jesse Jackson is also a baptist minister, just like Huckabee. If being a preacher is the main criteria for conservatives to select a president, we might as well vote for Jesse Jackson, right? Jackson and Huckabee have more in common -- they both believe in income redistribution.

Jesse (Louis) Jackson Biography (1941 - )

Civil rights activist, Baptist minister, and presidential candidate, born in Greenville, South Carolina, USA.

He trained for the ministry at Chicago Theological Seminary and, having joined the protest movement led by Martin Luther King Jr and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), he was named head of the Chicago branch of Operation Breadbasket (1965), becoming its national head in 1967.

And Huckabee changes his mind as often as he changes his underwear.

All good reasons, Jim, but Huckabee is only siphoning off votes from our one chance at defeating McCain, and defeating McCain is our only chance at the general. And we cannot in good conscience fail to put our most genuine efforts toward winning the general, seeing who is on the other side and what permanent damage they will do.

So what happened to your endorsement of McCain a couple of weeks ago -- with all due respect?

If there's no FRed and no Hunter and we're left with the four headless RINOs, then what? January 10, 2008 | Jim Robinson

So, again, we're down to Huckabee and McCain. Now you all know that I like Huckabee as he is a likable fellow, and I hate McCain, but wait. If the whole shebang is going to be decided on which of the still standing Republican wannabes should defend America from the terrorists and the surrendering Democrats, I think I'll have to go with McCain over Huckabee. At least McCain served in the military and has a whole lot more military and national security experience while serving on various committees in the senate than does Huckabee. Huckabee has none. And I doubt Huckabee can defeat Hillary. But then, McCain probably won't either, so guess that leaves plan B. Squat down, tuck your head down between your knees and kiss your ass goodbye.

**then maybe, just maybe a deadlocked convention might seek out another candidate. One who can re-unite the Reagan Coalition, save the GOP, and put us back on the conservative track. Of course, my personal favorite to be that man would be FRed Thompson.**

Agree with you about Fred Thompson.

However, do we get Hillary elected in the general election by voting for a third party candidate?

You need a #8 - If it is true that Huckabee is trying to play spoiler for McCain then it logically follows that Huckabee will not drop out before McCain wins the nomination. McCain is relying upon Romney voters to remain loyal and thus split the conservative vote. Huckabee will not leave with a VP spot on the line nor will most of his supporters vote for Romney. This means the only possible move is not to play into McCain’s hand and do the unexpected by knocking McCain out of the drivers seat by putting Huckabee in front on Tuesday. This will then leave room for Romney to fight a much weaker McCain and a broke Huckabee. Without a solid conservative turnout for Huckabee, McCain will checkmate on Tuesday! Give up the queen now and conservatives live to fight on.

Jim, this is precisely the reason I'm voting for him.

The other guys suck so I'm stuck with Huck!

Wow....you sure showed a pair partner.

I’m ambivalent about Huckabee but I have found myself arguing pretty much nonstop with folks here who seem to hate him because of how he talks and where he’s from and for the very reason you support him.....that he is unabashed Christian social conservative.

It takes stones to buck such a loud contingent in your own forum.

I salute you.

I’d don’t like McCain either and would prefer Romeny over McCain in a second.

We shall see.

I am amazed.

I don't believe that Huckabroke can do much more than give McCamnesty the nomination. HOPING that Huck will cause a brokered convention then HOPING that the brokered convention will give us a conservative candidate and then HOPING that the brokered convention will not tear the party apart before E-day is hoping for a little too much:

Here's why we can't accept Huckabee's type of Christianity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saeKs63dxNo

I’m supporting the constitution party candidate, thank you very much. I see no difference between any of the candidates running, including Hitlerey and Obama.

You pulled the Huckabee stuff we posted a few weeks ago. Just saying. Welcome aboard!

A vote for Huck props up the Ancient Mariner and puts the election in the hands of unapologetically pro-abort politicians. While not happy with his track record I reluctantly believe the pro-life movement’s best opportunity lies with Romney.

If and when Romney goes down, I accept the fact that I will most certainly die in a nation that will legally kill unborn children for the rest of my days.

I am 44.

Woo Hoo! You are on to something! Thank you, Jim. I think I can finally go pray and then to bed with a little more HOPE tonight. God Bless.

I completely agree with you my friend. Huckabee is the one.

Thanks Jim
