The stories get better and better...

"he's in the Cayman Islands, giving a speech -- and she's at a pro boxing match in Vegas?" said a flabbergasted Hanretty. "It demonstrates that Mike and Janet aren't serious about moving into the White House. Two world centers of money laundering for one couple in one weekend? Maybe they were "serious" about something else but running...just can't give up to quickly lest he be called a planted stalking horse to push out Romney.

But this doesn’t raise eyebrows:

Obama on cocaine: Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it.

She’s a grown woman ... guess she can go where she wants. Besides, I too would rather be in Vegas than in the Cayman’s on business or at Obama rally or listening to tonights Dem Debate.

I bet she’s been to New York City where she was offered a condom and told to “Get Some”.

Different story. This one highlights the Cayman Islands angle.

...where she stayed at the Hooters Casino Hotel.

A quality Arkancide matron.

Isn’t that something to put on the mantle or the wall in the living room as a memento of NYC>

Truth of the matter is that what ever happens in Vegas does not necessarily stay in Vegas. There are tens of thousands of video cameras and you are always on camera. From exiting your hotel room through the betting pits through the restaurants onto the streets and then back again. More servelliance than Singapore.

Stay classy. Meanwhile Huck continues to yuck it up with the cool kids. This week it’s SNL.

Psst Huck, they aren’t laughing with you. They are laughing at you, you stupid hick.

IMHO, the only class act, as far as First Lady, was Ann Romney.

What happens in Vegas makes the NYT front page (if Republican).

The media really has run this election (cept for Hillary’s failure to launch, they’ve done all they could for her). I mean how in the world does it come down to this on the Republican side? Who is Mike Huckabee and why is he still running? I think it’s because the media elite are keeping his story alive in order to further weaken and aggravate mainstream conservatives. They see the weakness with leadership choices at this time and are taking advantage. Huckabee’s more than happy to play along.

I wonder if Mrs. Huck bet on her friend Taylor, the loser, yet “won” anyway? Kind of like Hillary’s $100,000 futures profits scheme. Maybe Mr. Huck was in the Cayman’s to open the account at time of transfer...just a guess...

If you read the linked article to the Cayman Islands you’ll see Huck joking a lot about off shore banking seemingly against it...but strangely familiar with it...

you stupid hick - I once heard Texans are people from Arkansas that did not make it all the way to Mexico.

Maybe she carried some Gospel Tracts into the ring, and was evangelizing the sinners who had come for the fight?

I don’t like Huckabee.

But what is the big deal?

Christians don’t go to Vegas? Christians don’t go to prize fights?

Hooters may be questionable for a candidate or his wife. But no big deal to me.

People need to grow up.

I think they both deserve a vacation in sin city for giving us McLame.
