I continue to be baffled by Huckabee ....

Never try to understand the 'televangelist' Huckster from a conservative or Christian lens. He's a phony pandering opportunist with big government thinking ...

If it weren't for Huckabee, Fred Thompson would be President right now.

The direction Governor Huckabee would take us in … liberal economic policies … liberal foreign policies … taxpayer funded programs for illegals … that’s not the model of the Reagan coalition, that’s the model of the democratic party.

“If it weren’t for Huckabee, Fred Thompson would be President right now.”

Fred Thompson lost because Fred Thompson ran a very POOR campaign. Don’t blame Huckabee for Thompson’s failings. Also, Thompson waffled foreever and was too late getting in the campaign....that is what cost him the election.

Also, even IF he had gotten the nomination....what makes you think he could have beaten Unicorns and Butterflys in 2008? I doubt he could have. Plus, he wasn’t that well liked by the social conservative base. Either you please the socons or you loose....it is that simple.
