I don’t know about the rest of you, but I would rather put up with Huckabee’s weakness on fiscal conservatism than Fred, Mitt, or Giuliani’s weaknesses on social conservatism.

What about his weaknesses on the war and illegal aliens? Huckabee is completely unacceptable. If he is the nominee I WILL write in Fred or Duncan. I will NEVER vote for Huckabee.

I am not aware of him being week on the war (other than that he kind of pandered by saying that we broke it so now we have to fix it) his previous stance on illegal aliens does concern me. However, I am more willing to accept a road to des moines conversion on this issue than on the life issue. Also, it does not appear that he has the backing of big business interests (since he has had a lot of trouble raising money) so if he is nominated it will be the conservatives and not the Country Club wing of the Republican Party who put him in power. I don’t think he will forget this and thus I would be surprised if he stabs us in the back on immigration. Unlike Bush who was always the darling of the Country Club wing and ultimately proved that he cared more about them than about us.
