Mike Huckabees Show - What do you think?

Posted on 10/12/2008 5:26:15 PM PDT by DocT111

Watching Huckabees show. I really like it, especially how he interacts with the audience. There is a nice multi-cultural mix in the audience too. I hope FOX continues to run this show.

I like it, too, and I was pretty anti-Huckabee back during the primaries. It cannot be denied; he’s the best communicator in the entire GOP right now. He explains things well, handles questions with ease, is not afraid to attack the other side, and actually has just about all the concepts right. Honestly....yeah, I’ll just go ahead and eat crow and say it.....I wish he were our nominee. More than anything right now, Republicans need someone who is a good communicator. Bush and McCain’s utter ineptness at it has cost us almost everything. Huckabee’s show is a nice respite after watching McCain continue to strike out on homerun pitches throughout the week.

I wish more Rev, and especially catholic priests mention abortion and homo marriage.

I could never understand why the catholic north east goes and votes for everything their religion goes against

Then I live up there for a bit and asked around.

Seems the Priests up there never mention any of this at all, why I do not know but they need to

he was too religious and folksy for them. The same elitist Republicans who hate Palin also hated him.

he would have been against the bailout and he would have won in a landslide.

Why do you say that? During the debates, he didn’t show the slightest interest in the debt, the destructive role of the Federal Reserve, etc. Ron Paul was the only one to do that. Huckabee didn’t see this coming. Why should he? He was a typical big spending, tax-raising Southern governor.

I despise Mike Huckabee, whose selfishness and collusion with McCain has delivered the electoral disaster that may soon ensue.

Yes, I will vote for McCain. That said, we have nominated the wrong candidate.

Like Reagan in 76 and 80, Mitt was positioned to run AGAINST Washington. We have no such luxury with McCain. With his global economic expertise and telegenicity, Romney would be kicking BO and the RATS to the curb on this economic meltown. and explaining a pro-growth and compelling positive economic agenda. Hell, we might even have taken back the House with Romney at the top of the ticket.

-@— you, Huckabee.

Oh yeah, forgot about that but you got to admit they need to retool and bring it up a notch.

Huckabee now interviewing Bill Orek from Orek vacuums - he’s talking about times during The Great Depression - back then people were looking for work not a handout. Amen...

I liked him as well...especially after the Edwards jokes during the summer 07 debate. However, Romney would've sliced and diced BO to pieces last week. I want to wait until after the election to play Monday morning quarterback....I just wonder how a Romney/Palin program would've worked.........especially given the financial sector panic.

Um, Romney supported the bailout. But I’m sure he’d flip that issue too

http://www.lvrj.com/news/30256589.html

Speaking to reporters after his 17-minute talk, Romney said he supports the economic rescue plan making its way through Congress and lauded Porter for voting for it. He was one of a handful of vulnerable Republicans who cast a yes vote for the original bill that failed in the House of Representatives on Monday.

“What Jon Porter did ... is not politically popular, but it’s the right thing,” Romney said. “I believe the American people, with more time and inspection of the need for economic stabilization, will recognize that this is the right thing. Right now he’s taking a vote which is a very courageous vote and I salute him for doing that.”

I agree with you. I’ll never forgive what he did to Mitt Romnmey.

I’m not big on conspiracy theories, but I’m 100% sure there are those out there spreading fear & misinformation, the rest - I’ll keep an open mind about - I think it is possible.

I like Mike! I liked Mike over McCain & Romney in the primaries and I like a Palin-Huckabee ticket in 2012.

His show is great.

Your naivete is amazing. Romney is playing good soldier to protect as many Republicans as possible.

Were he the nominee, Mitt would have vociferously opposed the bailout and hung the entire scandal around the RATS necks, with no political accountability.

Unlike our current standard bearer, Mitt can speak with fluency and high impact on any economic subject. McCain looks like a deer in headlights and can barely string a few coherent thoughts together.

Wake up.
