I knew you guys hated him, but not until I saw the results of this weekend’s Hot Air mega-poll did I realize how much. Out of 17 presidential candidates named, he finished … 15th, just eight votes ahead of Rick Santorum and 10 votes ahead of, er, Donald Trump. Palin won the poll with 1181 votes and Chris Christie came second with 745. Huckabee’s total take: 32. Dude?
The word on the primaries lately from everyone from Palin to Rove is that competition is wunderbar, that the more candidates we have battling for the nomination, the better served voters are by having more options, etc. Just wondering: Does that logic apply to Huck too? Think carefully before you answer, because if there’s anyone who’s poised to hurt Palin by peeling off social cons, blue-collar voters, and women (yes, really), it’s him.

I give Huckleberry a fat chance.
All we need to know about the Huck is he is the darling of the lamestream media.
Not a fan of Huckabee at all!
No, thank you.
What dream world is he living in? ;-)
This Huckabee creep has got to go! Palin save us!
Was Mike Huckabee “just like Bill Clinton?” Maybe, but some would actually say he was to the left of Bill Clinton. As Governor of Arkansas, Huckabee’s tax and spend record greatly exceeded former AR Gov. Bill Clinton. He even wanted to tax the internet.
Mike Huckabee is to the left of even Sam Brownback and John McCain on immigration. He claimed God wants us to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. As Governor of Arkansas he advocated letting illegal aliens vote.
While Huckabee is now lying and saying he is dedicated to fighting illegal immigration, his record is clear.
As Governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee passed a law that added major restrictions to the Arakansas Homeschool Rights Act passed by Bill Clinton, making Arkansas one of the most hostile state to homeschoolers outside of the Northeast. Homeschoolers in Arkansas had more rights when Clinton left office than when Huckabee left office.
Mike Huckabee was the keynote speaker at the 2007 NEA national convention!
Huckaliar is nothing but a spoiler. That’s what he was last time and that is what he would be this time.
You have that right...and to think that after all of his liberal loving BS, some FReepers still support this idiot.
Put Col Allen West up against the Huckster. West would kick his azz handily.West/Palin 2012.
He got my vote in the primary. He’d get it again if my other choices are no better than the choices I had in 2008.
Sorry, but Palin isn’t better. She’s a nice person, and good at projecting the conservative image, but I would really like to see more depth in her message.
Huckabee— no way. Absolutely no way.
I think we’ll just keep this little list handy....
Thanks for posting.
Huck, Mitt, and Newt--sounds like the new three stooges act.

Huck is well positioned to confront Obama in 2012.
Thats the problem. Obama started his depredations against the constitution in 2009. Where was Huck? What was he waiting for?
He was busy keeping a low profile and tweaking his image to appeal to the moderate and the Oprah-watcher, and positioning himself to be able to edge past his Repub rivals when the time came.
He ought to have been out trying to stop Obama. If he understood that this is about stopping the Obama gang, and saving the constitution, he would have been in the fight already. Instead he bides his time and waits for an invitation. He’s got Romney-disease. He thinks its all about positioning yourself when what its really about is taking on Obama... in 2009, 2010, 2011, every day, right up until we drive that gang right out of the White House and into the street.
Yeah, you keep telling yourself that, Huckster.
Take a closer look at post #7. And lets add to that his convict release proclivities.
Remember how that ended up ?
