I think Glen Beck said it best. Do you damn job, and do it well. If you do, people will ASK you to run for President.
Huck wants to be President to salve his bruised ego, he wants it because it will make him feel good.
Meanwhile, we have some outstanding candidates who have done their jobs VERY well - Chris Christie and Sarah Palin come to mind.
Huck - just please go away and get a hug from your Mommy.
Govs Christie and Palin didn’t even complete a single term so I’m not quite sure how you could compare them to someone who was re-elected and served for 10 years.
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.
