>Huckabee says that isn't the same man he knew back in 2000.

>>If you never met him in person, you never knew him... I'm assuming this kid was no more than a name on a piece of paper with a record that Mike was reading. I would be amazed if Mike actually went to the big house and met with him before determining what to do with him

In his "defense" Huck said he looked at 1200 of these appeals a year and turned down 92% of them. Think about that... assuming he worked about 200 days a year, that's six a day, if he did them every day. More likely, he did them once a week, and looked at close to 30 of them in every session. He knew virtually nothing about anyone in these appeals.

Other posters have said that Huck was a sucker for the "reformed Christian" angle. Maybe the word got around.

So in other words, Mike can put the tank helmet on and have his picture taken. He's damaged goods. Maybe he can do some background work with Newt to help the GOP in the next several elections.
