"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.
A quality Arkancide matron.
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).
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.
Don’t you know she is being politically correct? The real name of Hooters is “the crying owl inn” lamenting the destruction of the owl’s habitat by greedy capitalists.
And Taylor got his ass kicked - again - by Pavlik, to boot.
(And it was a non-title fight).
NOT a good slogan, considering their smarmy, dog slaughtering pig of a son.
I thought what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
“”This is the first election where we’ve seen the spouse as a celebrity ... because for good or ill, spouses are a reflection of the candidate,” Hanretty said.” Silly statement. MANY if not most elections in the last 40+ years have had much coverage of the wife: Jackie, Nancy, Hillary to name a few.
Lots of smarmy, childish commentary to this post.
As a longtime but non-native resident of Arkansas I don’t necessarily like Mike Huckabee politically. However, folks who use “hillbilly” imagery and language merely display their own infantilism.
Mike Huckabee is a very intelligent man and accomplished politician. His home state is more beautiful and advanced than most of the commenters to this post will ever know — thank goodness. (Please don’t visit until y’all grow up.)
Karen Hanretty has some explaining to do. Lately, she (a paid mouthpiece) has been on a propaganda campaign against Mike Huckabee. Get this: she argues that he's a "liberal" among whatever epithets, slams, and slurs she can muster.
"Liberal?"
"Liberal?"
Karen -- what is the job that put you on the map in this nation?
Let me give you a hint... it was in Cal-ee-forr-nia....
Yes! You were the campaign spokesperson for Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Karen -- you Schwarzenegger-conservative, you -- who is paying you, for your Anti-Huckabee Campaign, now that Thompson and Romney are out?
And don't forget to flash that sweet lil' homecoming queen smile of yours, as you lay all that out.
