You think?
Did Huck draft an anti-constitutional “campaign finance reform’ law?
Huck has an A from the Gun Owners of America, McCain has an F
McCain’s pro-life record is very spotty. Huck’s is perfect.
McCain is a cheerleader for signing away sovereignty via the LOST debacle. Huck is adamamently opposed.
McCain has supported affirmative action. Huck has always opposed it.
McCain voted against the marriage amendment. Huck is 100% in favor.
McCain voted against BOTH Bush tax cuts. Huckabee promoted them.
McCain still wants amnesty. Huckabee has vowed never to allow it (despite both having awful records on the subject).
McCain has been supporting the Bush plan on Israel. Huck rejects it.
McCain prostrates himself to the chicoms more than any candidate except Romney.

..whatever one might think of Huck--at least he's on record concerning The Fence...
The Secure America Plan
A 9-Point Strategy for Immigration Enforcement and Border Security
Overview: Implement a broad-based strategy that commits the resources of the federal government to the enforcement of our immigration laws and results in the attrition of the illegal immigrant population.
1. Build the Fence
- Ensure that an interlocking surveillance camera system is installed along the border by July 1, 2010.
- Ensure that the border fence construction is completed by July 1, 2010.
2. Increase Border Patrol
- Increase the number of border patrol agents.
- Fully support all law enforcement personnel tasked with enforcing immigration law.
3. Prevent Amnesty
- Policies that promote or tolerate amnesty will be rejected.
- Propose to provide all illegal immigrants a 120-day window to register with the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services and leave the country. Those who register and return to their home country will face no penalty if they later apply to immigrate or visit; those who do not return home will be, when caught, barred from future reentry for a period of 10 years.
- This is not a "touchback" provision. Those who leave this country and apply to return from their home country would go to the back of the line.
4. Enforce the Law on Employers
- Employment is the chief draw for most illegal immigrants and denying them jobs is the centerpiece of an attrition strategy.
- Impose steep fines and penalties on employers that violate the law.
- Institute a universal, mandatory citizenship verification system as part of the normal hiring process.
- Prevent the IRS and the Social Security Administration from accepting fraudulent Social Security numbers or numbers that don't match the employees' names.*
5. Establish an Economic Border
- Move toward passage of the FairTax.
- The FairTax provides an extra layer of security by creating an economic disincentive to immigrate to the U.S. illegally.
6. Empower Local Authorities
- Promote better cooperation on enforcement by supporting legislative measures such as the CLEAR Act, which aims to systematize the relationship between local law and federal immigration officials.
- Encourage immigration-law training for police. Local authorities must be provided the tools, training, and funding they need so local police can turn illegal immigrants over to the federal authorities.
7. Ensure Document Security
- End exemptions for Mexicans and Canadians to the US-VISIT program, which tracks the arrival and departure of foreign visitors. Since these countries account for the vast majority of foreigners coming here (85 percent), such a policy clearly violates Congress' intent in mandating this check-in/check-out system.
- Reject Mexico's "matricula consular" card, which functions as an illegal-immigrant identification card.
8. Discourage Dual Citizenship
- Inform foreign governments when their former citizens become naturalized U.S. citizens.
- Impose civil and/or criminal penalties on American citizens who illegitimately use their dual status (e.g., using a foreign passport, voting in elections in both a foreign country and the U.S.).
9. Modernize the Process of Legal Immigration
- Eliminate the visa lottery system and the admission category for adult brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens.
- Increase visas for highly-skilled and highly-educated applicants.
- Expedite processing for those who serve honorably in the U.S. Armed Forces.
- Improve our immigration process so that those patiently and responsibly seeking to come here legally will not have to wait decades to share in the American dream. Governor Huckabee has always been grateful to live in a country that people are trying to break into, rather than break out of.
*This policy will be drafted to comply with the final federal court decisions on this issue.
Note: This plan is partially modeled on a proposal by Mark Krikorian, Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies. ("Re: Immigration: Ten Points for a Successful Presidential Candidate," National Review, May 23, 2005.)

Make no mistake I am not for either one of these posers and will vote 3rd or write-in.
Huck is favor of expanding government just like he did in Arkansas. Huck mouths a pro gun stance while doing nothing to protect the rights. “I am hunter blah blah...” don’t cut it. Huck raised taxes in Arkansas. Huck is for passing nanny state laws like the smoking restrictions. Amnesty IMO is more of an issue right now than abortion, if we lose autonomy everything is moot. Huck sucks on immigration he is from the home of Tyson one of the largest illegal employers under Huck’s watchful eye. We have no right dictating anything one way or the other to Israel only support their decision.
I would think that a Hunter-aniac would oppose anyone like that, oh wait Hunter drank some kool-aid and endorsed him I forgot.

I could live with Huckabee/vote for him. I WILL NOT vote for McCain- for all the reasons in your post, and more.
