I guess this guy would also tell us that the Buffalo Bills are the Super Bowl favorite by default as well.

The AP had to go to Ouachita Baptist University to find a pro-Huck prof?

[TADSLOS]

LOL! Ouachita is a poly sci powerhouse? Who knew?

[Luke21]

Hahaha. They want to run the same goobers as last time. Where’s McCain?

[bboop]

In WHOSE eyes, please??? Not in mine.

[spectre]

Oh the left is salivating at the propect we are stupid enough to run Huckabee..That's why they're leaving him alone.

[BunnySlippers]

No

[mad_as_he$$]

Huck get your star just a little higher so the MSM can shoot it down and do us all a favor.

[Paladin2]

Chuck Huck. He has apparently found his true home in the media.

[frankenMonkey]

Whah?
The AP given to writing comedy now?

I lost the linkage, but here's from a quick Google search

Mr. Huckabee was born in Hope, Ark., and from the start, he was hungry to try more than one career: politics (he participated in the same teenage civic program that had stoked the ambition of another native son, Bill Clinton, 10 years earlier), radio (he did his first broadcast at 11), and religion (he delivered his first sermon at 15 and pastored a church three years later).>

After graduating from Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Ark., he enrolled at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Texas but dropped out after a year to work for James Robison, a fiery television evangelist. To make himself sound more knowledgeable, Mr. Huckabee later told his secretary, he crammed on issues of Reader’s Digest.

They want to run the same goobers as last time.

Colon Powell's name was put out there today, as well. Not joking - there's a thread up

[RichInOC]

If God had really meant Mike Huckabee to be president, He would not have set him down in Hope, Arkansas, nine years after Bill Clinton.

[piytar]

The establishment has sensed that MittCare makes Romney unelectable. Therefor, they will start hyping Huckabe.

[Nervous Tick]

>> Mike Huckabee is turning into a front-runner for his party’s 2012 presidential nomination almost by default.

Well, he probably IS the MSM’s front runner. Certainly not mine.

But remember, the driveby media chose the (R) candidate for 2008, so why wouldn’t they think they could pick the 2012?

Refresh my memory — how did the goober they picked in ‘08 turn out?

[LiberConservative]

I won’t vote for the Huckster simply because Fox News wants me to.

[novemberslady]

heck no...

[Luke21]

I saw it. They will give us nothing but pigs to vote for if they get their way. While they and Obama snicker at us during the second inaugural.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

Huck has issues that bother me (a lot),
but I’d pick him over ObiOne.
