Mike Huckabee is not a serious Presidential contender, but he is bait for some of the Religious Right, and some compassionate conservatives who just cant stomach hardball politics. Recently, Huckabee attacked Senator Ted Cruz comparing his zeal to that of General Custer at the Little Big Horn.
Governor Huckabee said that Cruz was rash and inexperienced, and did not have a long term strategy like other Republican leaders. What a joke! I agree that Bush Romney Boehner McConnell have a long term strategy. But that strategy includes amnesty for illegals and only minor tinkering with Obama Care. The RINO Republicans dont see an American future in the 21st Century, they see a global future, where America surrenders its sovereignty to a One World Order. This is no secret it is the centerpiece of the Bush New World Order. Jeb Bush supports Common Core, the United Nations based education plan for America.
You have to decide if America is in crisis. If it is, if it is burning like a house on fire, than half steps and compromise ARE NOT the way to extinguish the fire.
Lets review so we know where we are;
a. 18 trillion in debt.
b. a stalemated economy that has watched American industry and blue collar jobs exodus like the Jews from Egypt.
c. an Open Border that has flooded America with twenty million poor, uneducated, unhealthy illegal immigrants driving down the cost of manual labor, and thus all labor wages.
d. the consolidation of power in Washington, and the subordination of states to the role of a large county government. And the explosion of Judicial power that robs the people of their right to govern themselves.
e. an ill defined U. S. foreign policy that sure isnt concerned with Israels security and is allowing Iran to inch closer to nuclear weapons. It will take decades to repair what has been done concerning the Middle East by this pro Arab, pro Muslim administration.
f. a government financial policy that counts on inflation to reduce the weight of its long term indebtedness. This policy has driven down interest rates so that the average American loses money by keeping it in a savings account, and safer investments like Certificates of Deposit, CDs. And retirement accounts are being silently raped of value.
g. the loss of our moral center, and with that the complete destruction of American values and traditions based on the Christianity that created this nation in the first place.
Folks, if you agree with the observations of above, then I ask you, is compromise and hedge betting the strategy you think will reverse our course?
Leaders like Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz see that we are the Titanic headed towards the ice berg. We have to change course, and to do that for this large ship of state requires a large amount of force applied at the rudder to change course. Across the entire spectrum of American policy there needs to huge change. We are not in a condition where tinkering will resolve the challenges. Palin and Cruz know that either we make the change or God will and Sodom and Gomorrah probably didnt like the Divine application of correction. Will America correct its own course, or steer defiantly into oblivion?
Thats the situation we face today, and why Governor Huckabee is just one more obstacle to getting the right people in office.
Yes....It is the nature of the elitists in this world.
yep, some wealthy elitist tells his political consultants to go sidle up to Huckabee and stroke his ego....tell him how he’s the perfect man for these times....tell him that if he can beat, say Cruz, in Iowa or SC, that he can WIN. And promise him money to a Super PAC.
Huck goes ego. The elitist is pulling the strings. This is obviously just a hypothetical, but this or any of a million things could be going on.
Cruz has more than enough savvy and experience. His support of TPP proves that.
The Cheap Labor Express is paying for the flood of candidates to prevent us from electing anyone who wll stop the invasion/cheap labor importation/colonization of our country. The RNC must deliver an amnesty cnadidate.
Exactly.
Did you simply forget to offer up conflicting information or do you just like wasting time?
You miss the point. The Pew poll IS conflicting information. They are a radical far left polling organization - and when they poll Republicans, there is only one goal in mind: to play the left’s psych operations game of misleading the Republicans.
You aren’t so naive as to think pollsters are in business to truthfully reflect public opinion are you? They are not, with the exception of the last week or so before an election. For the rest of the 2 year cycle, they are in the mischief business...most of them...Pew among the worst.
Huckabee is a stalking horse. He always has been. He’s a tool of the establishment, meant to dilute and siphon off conservative votes.
This is accurate and timely, and your derision only serves to cast doubt on YOU.
Are you, also, an establishment tool?
I'm all for going easy on (not savaging) many of the existing candidates in order to help elect a good conservative. It's called the long game.
In the case of Huckaphony, I can't think of a good reason NOT to disparage what he is doing until he is long gone from this race.
Huck and Jeb, take em out.......
These numbers are interesting too:My time is not yours to waste with emotional self defense mechanisms.
Dude, I know polling. But if you think that Huck, Rand and Jeb are the top three Republicans, then please, I have some water front land I’d like to sell you.
And Pew is from my neck of the woods...I know about these people. They have no legitimate reason to do a Republican poll. They are partisan hacks, period, for the Democrats.
Ted Cruz and Scott Walker, in that order, are the only two worthwhile presidential candidates at this time. The others are just clutter.
Agreed, and the establishment is desperate to keep them from being nominated. Graham, Perry, Huckabee and others are running solely to prevent that.
and you think Fox News is conservative, bless your heart. You think Huck is trust worthy...double bless your little pollyanna heart.
...you ever considered that living in Berlin, perhaps you are way out of touch with conservative America? This explains why you are so easily bamboozled I guess.
* I believe this is to suggest that he does not have any chance at being the GOP 2016 nominee.
Do you disagree with that?
I think you hit that one on the head.
How does anyone seriously think Mike Huckabee is what this country needs now?
The only way to think that is to not know much about Huckabee, or much about the country now. That's why I verified that he does indeed live in Berlin, according to his FR page.
