As an aside, Sarah Huckabee Sanders is a first-rate professional. She handles the WH press with ease and aplomb.

She will go a very long way.

“Sarah Huckabee Sanders is a first-rate professional.”

I couldn’t agree more.

I think Sarah is the best. Love how she handles those press morons.

She smacks down the misbehaving children in the press room every time.

Very impressed with Sarah. I think she is going to stick in this job for as long as she wants to do it. She is definitely the right person for press secretary.

Trump has gotten some unfair criticism for the "turnover" in his Administration but this is how it works in corporate America. It sometimes takes a few hires to get the right person for a particular job. A smart CEO is not afraid to make changes and admit that his initial hire was a mistake. It's all about finding the best people for the job and you don't really know it's the right person until they are given the position (such as putting Rex Tillerson in as SoS).

I remember when Mike Huckabee was Dead To Everyone. His weight, then his weight loss, then his weight ... his evangelical religion ... he was “soft on crime” ... he was “open borders” ... he was a “Huckster” because of his recurring candidacies ...

I remember further back, when he was considered to be doing pretty well as Governor of Arkansas, and he was also praised as a band leader.

One just can’t keep up.

Absolutely you didn't keep up. Nor does your post indicate that you have ever paid attention to the things about the Huckster that bother people.

Tell us all Tax-chick why you list all these inconsequential things which only the far left ever cared about instead of stealing furniture from the governor's mansion and having great concern over Josh Duggar but no concern anyone could measure regarding the little girls he kept on groping? Those were the things that bother me, and they are non-negotiable.

There is a massive disconnect between your position yesterday regarding Hugh Hefner and the people who support him vis-a-vis the support of this opportunistic snake oil salesman.

Sarah is doing a great job. I have also been surprised how well her father has defended President Trump on TV.

I’m simply pointing out things I remember. I have not followed Huckabee’s career that closely, so I was not aware of the additional things you’ve brought up, including Huckabee’s view of the Josh Duggar situation.

Are you saying that only the “far left” cared about Huckabee’s positions on crime and immigration? Or something else?

Only they and his immediate primary contenders ever considered those things important beyond any ongoing elections.

The things I mentioned have caused normal people to be through with Hucklebee and the things he does for the foreseeable future. They are of lasting importance.

That girl’s got spirit, a quick wit and, when needed, a sharp tongue. She won’t back down
A strong female with intelligence. A refreshing treat to see this in DC

I agree. However, this article seems to be about his positive relationship with Donald Trump.

I remember it well. I was a Huckabee supporter here back in 2008 and endlessly bashed for supporting him over the less conservative Romney, McCain, and Giuliani.

Huckabee was endlessly called Elmer Gantry, Huckafraud, Huckster, Nanny-Stater, Bill Clinton with an 'R' next to his name, etc., etc., and a photo op of his family was endlessly ridiculed with how fat and stupid they all are, including his daughter Sarah. All that from a guy who called "the FReeper Governor" while he was in office and headlined two George W. Bush inauguration with nothing but praise from this board.

Now, of course, we're back to square one where Huckabee is once again a respected "conservative statemen" since his daughter is Trump's White House Press Secretary, and we're told that "only liberals" would say anything nasty about the Huckabee family.

The Schizophrenic nature of this board is very odd at times. I wonder if all the anti-Huckabee commentators from 2008 would have the balls to tell Sarah Huckabee what they REALLY said about her dad when he was running for President.

What a snarky headline.

Exactly. It’s just a weird phenomenon. Public figures are gushed over one day, non-persons the next day, and then back on the pedestal by Tuesday. Don’t dare miss a memo!
