Huck: Palin ‘looks better in stilettos’
Politico ^ | Nov. 24, 2008 | Andy Barr

Posted on 11/24/2008 11:23:25 AM PST by Al B.

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee says he was surprised by John McCain’s pick of Sarah Palin because he believes the only difference between himself and the Alaska governor is “she looks better in stilettos than I do.”

Reflecting on the Palin pick in an interview with the New Yorker posted Monday, Huckabee told the magazine that “I was scratching my head, saying, ‘Hey, wait a minute. She’s wonderful, but the only difference was she looks better in stilettos than I do, and she has better hair.’”

Huckabee insisted that Palin “was given a pass by some of the very people who said I wasn’t prepared.” “It wasn’t so much a gender issue, but it was like they suddenly decided that everything they disliked about me was O.K,” he said.

One of many differences between you and Mrs. Palin is you are a big government toady and she isn’t.

Also, Mrs. Palin doesn’t try to use stilted, feeble attempts at humor to further her ambitions.

Huck is much more prone to his words as a stiletto.

Huck is a loser who likely has never been with a hot woman in his life, she took his “spot” and she’s the type of woman who’s been unattainable his whole life, lots of anger below the surface.

very true

Huck would have been even more ripped apart than Sarah because of his do good er socialist Christianity.
Many did not want to see illegals get freebies and made to stay forever.

a southern preacher on the ticket was not going to get many moderates voting for him.
McCain even said the economy was not his strong point

so they were both doomed from the get go along with illegal money illegal votes and the biased media.

Why Huckabee keep going on I do not know but I hope he gets over his bitterness towards some others

Sarah is no Huckster, thank goodness. Republicans don’t need the Huckster we’ve got. People bought into the shuck and jive Obamarama, and they will regret it soon, wanting real solutions and leaders to get them out of this mess. That rules out Huckster and rules in Sarah.

I imagine Huckabee was feigning a poor attempt at humor and getting his jabs in. This kind of thing shows very little class and I think Palin has put up with enough morons being sexist and getting away with it.

I hope he, as well as Romney, have lost their political aspirations and stay out of the 2012 race. Anyone involved with Bush or McCain could help Conservatives out by doing the same. I am hoping we will see Jindal/Cantor or Cantor/D2 type tickets in the next general.

I hope the few remaining FReeper Hucksterites are beginning to see why as an Arkansas FReeper I've been adamantly against the Huckster progressing any farther up the political ladder in the GOP. When you look closely at the total package, he's not near the conservative he talks himself up to be. And here, he shows he can whine about losing with a nasally liberal accent.
