If Huckabee can retain his high ground of
“Family, Culture, and Fair Trade’ he will displace the neo-cons and pseudo-republicans, win the nomination and the next election, and restore this nation.
Palin Power!
Palin Power!
He’s right. Communist countries don’t need a second party. Since the GOP is made up primarily of Americans and we are now headed in the “new direction” towards Communism, we probably are irrelevant. How ‘bout those “immigrants”, huh?
Huckabee is partly right on the condition of the Republican Party. They think that changing the music is the answer. The old music is good. The band just needs to play it and play it well. I don't give a damn who the band leader is.
You thin pukes make me sick.
That's rich! A needed a good laugh for the weekend. Thanks, Huck!
ACORN is in control of voter ID and vote counts in Federal elections. Yeah. GOP could be reaching irrelavancy.
Social conservatives aren’t going anywhere. The various shades of Rockefeller types, the faux intellectuals, all the spineless lizards that drink the stank waters of the Potomac don’t have the ideas or numbers to win anything. The intellectual foundation of Democrat-lite, liberalizing conservatism was always based on the idea staving off the inevitable. The inevitable has happened. There is no slower route to liberalism. We are there. Either we move right with conservatism, or we die in this mess, economically, culturally and socially.
Oh geez. I’m tired of Republicans saying that the party is over.
We are looking for a leader and all the former leaders are looking for a party.
We’re right here. But where are the leaders?
You know, my father used to say about the abortion issue in particular that it wasn’t really a “political” issue.
I don’t know. I’m a tad confused at this. It seems to me that when “social” issues become politicized, EVERYBODY loses.
And I think these have been used as a wedge to pit Republicans against Republicans.
I know one thing for sure, I believe that society cannot be “engineered” and I think with the liberal school system and the indoctrination of the ranks and the “spreading the wealth” and the criticism of the military and the minimization of religion in America and the media and art community’s push...the Democrats are trying to engineer a “PC” society where freedom will ultimately lose.
But as long as social issues remain a wedge between Social/Fiscal Conservatives and the variations thereof, the entire party is going to lose.
And Huckabee’s comments don’t help.
I lament an America where many of my peers have fallen for the propaganda that we are no longer exceptional.
Huckaphony is already irrelevant!
Well, it's still possible. One wonders why there are so few of them, though.
Social conservatives and the religious voters are the "most energetic and loyal faction of the party...
I can't argue with Mike here, except to point out that he is a bit optimistic is saying this *might* happen. It already has.
Huckabee is spot on. Throw the conservatives under the bus, and your bus will be repossessed. You’re either with us, or against us.
That’s Penance for putting Carter in the White House.
