The first Republican primary is months away, but in the race to see which GOP candidate could make the most of the legal battle over a Kentucky clerk's refusal to grant same-sex marriage licenses, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee emerged a winner Tuesday, thanks to the efforts of an aide to block 2016 rival Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) from joining Huckabee at Davis' side.
Both presidential candidates were present at the rally at the jail holding Kim Davis, the Rowan County Clerk. But according to a New York Times report of the day's events, a Huckabee aide physically stood in Cruz's path to Davis' side as she and Huckabee appeared in front of the media after her release from jail:
When Senator Cruz exited the jail a throng of journalists beckoned him toward their microphones, but an aide to Mr. Huckabee blocked the path of Mr. Cruz, who appeared incredulous.
Moments later, Mr. Huckabee appeared, joined by Ms. Davis. He stuck close to her side as she approached the reporters, and again when she took the stage, and cast her fight as a choice of tyranny or religious freedom....

Why do you keep posting to me? Please stop that. I lost interest in the thread a long time ago. The only one who needs to get a grip is you. You are starting to look like some kind of stalker or something.

OK folks; show some integrity. I'm a Ted Cruz supporter. I worked for his Senate campaign here in Texas, but, this time.... TED WAS WRONG! This was a Huckabee campaign event; organized and paid for by the Huckabee campaign. Ted showed up at the last minute. Out of courtesy Huckleberry let him be in on the meeting with Kim Davis. But, he was not allowed on stage. What if Huckabee showed up and wanted on stage at a Trump event. What would Donald do? All the Trump fans on here would crucify Huckleberry.
So, come on folks. GEESH. A lot of people on this website remind me of a woman who gossips all over town about her neighbor who is a womanizer. Yet, she stands by her husband, and defends him, when he's arrested for sexually molesting little boys.
This outlandish, biased, slanderous article, written by a third-rate publication SUCKS!
