LITTLE ROCK Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee foresees a broke and battered nominee emerging from the 2012 Republican presidential sweepstakes but says his recent exit from the race is not etched in stone.
Appearing today as a guest of the Clinton School of Public Service, the surprise 2008 GOP presidential contender said he did not entirely rule out running next year when he announced last month he had decided against throwing his hat into the ring. Running as a vice presidential candidate next year or for president in 2016 also are not out of the question, he said.
Everything is still open. I havent closed doors, because I found long ago that thats not a smart thing to do, the Fox television talk show host and syndicated radio voice told reporters after a speech at the Clinton presidential library.

Huckabee said he is not even thinking about changing my mind right now, but he added, Dont rule anything out for the future.

Oh, puuulllleeeaaassseeee....NO WAY
Sometimes it feels like this process of choosing a presidential candidate is like picking parts off old cars in a junkyard.
Amazes me the number of people who supported this guy last time.
Please no. Please no. Don’t have enough antacids.
His gig as a bass player with the Rolling Stones’ last tour is in question due to the feud between the Glimmer Twins over the size of Mick’s weiner.
I echo that emotion...NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. no.
He must want to be begged.
Hey why not? Make it interesting. The MSM are all for it. Would he win? Will he provide excitement? Or will he be what he is, another Blaaaah Candidate. Sorry his appeal is nil, the most energetic Huckabee supporters are members of the MSM.
Huck makes Huntsman look like a Tea Party activist. No thanks.
CRAP!!!
Nuff said.
Huckabee said he is not even thinking about changing my mind right now, but he added, Dont rule anything out for the future.
In other words: “If I think I’m being forgotten and not asked to comment on every little thing I will decide to run”.

He is soooo jealous of Palin’s “One Nation” tour!
.
No thanks Huck.
He’s not quite dead yet.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
We do not need another liberal in the race.
Tax Hike Mike, go away.
Oh please do not do us any favors. Just Say NO!
