Huckabee on 2012: Let’s face it, no one’s better positioned to challenge Obama than I am
Hot Air ^ | DECEMBER 6, 2010 | ALLAHPUNDIT

Posted on 12/06/2010 5:21:30 PM PST by RobinMasters

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.

Other than the skin color who would notice the difference.

It’s been posted before.

If Palin is Sean Hannity, then Huckabee is Michael Medved.

If you don’t know what I mean by that, then listen to each of them

If (people like) Joy Behar had voted like me in 2008, then Obama would not be President, would he?

Funny you say that... remember when he was running last time, he lost about 100 lbs and looked somewhat un-goofy. Then he went on fox and gained it all back... now he looks as goofy as he ever did. Just hope when he looses another 100 for his next run, he doesn’t’ start preaching how everybody needs to loose weight “just like he did”. That guy irks me...

If Huck is our best shot, we’d better get used to Hussein.

All we need to know about the Huck is he is the darling of the lamestream media.

Exactly. There were a couple of other threads today on Huck too. He's got the LSM in full pimping mode.

You are remarkably shallow if you, as it appears, think that the Huckabees’ physical appearance has anything whatsoever to do with capability. Some folks never get past seventh grade developmentally. After seeing this and your love affair with Palin’s physicality I truly believe that you are one of them.

We need a macho man to lead America. Sarah is more macho then this guy. If he runs, he will get more exposure, and in the end he will give his support to Palin. I hope. Maybe. He’s a man right? Willing to do what’s best for the country. Right?

Kevin Spacy reminds me so much of Huckabee. Well the way they almost look alike. As for the Huck, I think he should do a MacArthur and just slowly fade away.

LOLOLOL. They'd never make it Alaska. None of them are fit enough to hunt or fish from what I've seen in "Sarah Palin's Alaska."

Oh shut-up. You never have anything worthy or nice to say, likely because you never have a nice day. Miserable people like you are beneath contempt.

That is certainly your right. I’m sure some will come along to tell you how misguided you are.
