Mike Huckabee is not my choice as a Presidential candidate.
Be that as it may, Mike Huckabee "did his job" as Lieutenant Governor of Arkansas from November 20, 1993 through July 15, 1996. He then "did his job" as Governor of Arkansas from July 15, 1996 through January 8, 2007.
That is a total of a little over 13 years of "doing his job" in serious political office in a State that has a population that is four times greater than the State of Alaska.
Sarah Palin "did her job" as Governor of Alaska (a State with half the population of San Diego, California) from December 4, 2006 through July 26, 2009.
Then she QUIT right in the middle of her first term in serious political office.
That is a total of a few weeks beyond 2 1/2 years before she quit on her job to make millions on reality TV shows.
A political leader, can't possibly "Do her damn job and do it well" if she quits in the middle of her first term in serious political office in order to make millions doing reality TV shows.
Reality TV is the kind of job job that Kate Gosselin does.
Even in her reality TV job, Sarah Palin's rating dropped 40% from Week 1 to Week 2.
'Sarah Palin's Alaska' Ratings Plummet In Week 2
Sarah Palin cannot even keep 40% of her reality TV show audience from Week 1 to week 2 and, yet, the Sarah Palin Fan Club is under the illusion that the majority of American voters will vote her into the Oval Office.
An Associated Press-GfK surveyindicated that 54 percent thought Obama should be voted out of office in 2012. Be that as it may, the reality is that Sarah Palin is the one Republican candidate that even Barack Hussein Obama can beat like a red-headed stepchild in the general Presidential election:
Sarah Palin has not proved she can do any job well except to preach to the choir in her own Fan Club. As a result, the majority of American voters will even vote for Obama before voting for Palin and even 40% of her reality TV show viewers did not bother to come back for Week 2.

DO YOU REALLY UNDERSTAND TV RATINGS AND TV CHANNELS?
3-5 million viewers AT “TLC” is a flop? at TLC?
Wow.
Be that as it may, Mike Huckabee “did his job” as Lieutenant Governor of Arkansas from November 20, 1993 through July 15, 1996. He then “did his job” as Governor of Arkansas from July 15, 1996 through January 8, 2007.
OKEY. 8 YEARS.
ANY SUBSTANTIAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN 8 YEARS?
OR WAS IT SAME ‘OL SAME ‘OL!... WASTING THE TIME OF HIS CONSTITUENTS IN 8 YEARS?
8 Years ... wow. too long. I would expect the REAL CONSERVATIVE HUCKABEE to lower the taxes of his people at least by half after 8 years. Did he?
Ratings are easy to spin when you have an agenda, and Hollywood has an interest in making Sarah Palin’s numbers look bad.
The facts: her show dropped in Week 2 at the end of a holiday weekend with special programming competition. (Most new shows, even big hits, drop the second week.)
In Week 3, the show was back up 17 percent to 3.5 million viewers — an UNUSUALLY LARGE INCREASE for a new show in its third week.
3.5 million viewers is a GINORMOUS number for a podunk channel like TLC. Mrs. Palin has done for TLC what she has done for countless politcos who’ve won elections — singlehandedly launched them.
Make no mistake: “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” is an enormous hit. There is no credible way to spin the numbers otherwise.
You miss my point.
I can point to hordes of people who want Sarah to run, myself included. For her ‘faults’ and ‘shortcomings’ she may have - one thing you can definitely say is that she is a Conservative - she doesn’t need a poll to tell her how to believe - she believes in Conservative values, and it’s in her speeches and in her books.
Can you point to a horde of people who are asking Huck to run? Or, is Huck running to appease his ego?
You are hating on Palin b/c she RESIGNED from a job that was costing her more than she was making??????
For real??????????
