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.

Wrong young man...FDR was the worst president in the history of our nation. The first, very out front, socialist...If you do not remember...look it up. Forget WW2....we followed him blindly! (Look at his ‘work’ in ‘33-39. Jimmy Carter? Good God...a piker compared to FDR. A piker compared to LBJ and his minority loving ‘great society’. You are not very old are you?

Apparently, this is “float the Huckabee trial balloon week” to see what happens. Go Cards got solitation for money calls from both HuckPAC and Romney today....lol.

The Huckster caller was told that “my money is with Sarah Palin.”

Well, of Huckster, MittCare Romney, and McLame, Huckster was (barely) the better choice. I agreed then.

Let’s not let it get to that this time, eh?

PS cc’d JimRob - thought he might want to comment...

Huck has a problem with the pardons, whether he can admit it to himself or not.

Old enough to know three things.....

One, your reading glasses must be awfully powerful to read between the lines of my post and see that I’m a male.

Two, your “ LBJ and his minority loving great society” is a bit distasteful.

Three, to get into an arguement over who was worse, FDR or JEC, is ridiculous when they both suck.

He’s talked it to death with his explanations, but it’s a “no sale” for the most past. Voters won’t buy it. The slain officers would still be alive. Cold, hard facts, and this murderer in WA state wasn’t his first. He has two of the same, plus over a 1,000 pardons while he was governor. The pardon King Governor. That flies in the face of law and order.

Sometimes I disagree with what your posts. Sometimes I just shake my head. Sometimes I agree. Re this:

“Wrong young man...FDR was the worst president in the history of our nation. The first, very out front, socialist...If you do not remember...look it up. Forget WW2....we followed him blindly! Look at his ?work? in ?33-39. Jimmy Carter? Good God...a piker compared to FDR. A piker compared to LBJ and his minority loving ?great society?.”

You couldn’t be more RIGHT!!! Although before he’s done, I think the obamanation will give even FDR a run for his (our) money.

BTW, “You are not very old are you?” What’s that have to do with it? Neither am I...

Ooops, bobby.223 Just looked at your posting history. Was confusing you with someone else. We’re almost always on the same page. But you still definitely nailed it about FDR!
