“THE ONLY POLLSTER that really matters”

Are the voters. Voters have not yet voted - all of this “polling” is boob-bait-for-the-butkis.

"It's been said that winning Iowa will be worth $60 million in free media to the victor. ... Regardless of the precise monetary value of a Huckabee victory in Iowa, Mike Huckabee will become very famous very quickly if he wins there."

Huckabee is a NannyCon.

Huck-a-mania, except that Huck, like several of the wannabes, is running away from his record.

He is one of those who newly claims to have ‘seen the light’ and claims to be the true conservative.

His gubernatorial record contradicts some of his current claims.

>> The governor has a few things working against him. Most notable are the facts that he has no money and even less name recognition.

...and there’s more.

At the last debate — really the first time I have paid attention to Mr. Huckabee — I liked what I saw.

Right up until his obligatory class warfare statement, however. About how much CEOs make and how unfair that is. That’s a clear warning bell that the man is socialist in his thinking, and will tax and spend to level the playing field.

No thank you.

(and, no, I’m not one of those “rich CEOs”... not even close... but I aspire to improve my lot, and Mr. Huckabee promises to take that opportunity away from me in the name of “fairness”. Shades of Hillary!)

Wow!

Both of Huckabee's supporters must be making some noise.

Huckabee supports the Fair Sales Tax Scam.

It has a new entitlement program of the Prebate.

This means EVERYONE gets a check from the government every month to PRE-give them their sales tax expediture for “necessities” which the GOVERNMENT DECIDES.

Huckabee is not a viable candidate.

Say what you want about him, he hits the x-ring when it comes to guns. From his website:
"The Second Amendment is primarily about tyranny and self-defense, not hunting. The Founding Fathers wanted us to be able to defend ourselves from our own government, if need be, and from all threats to our lives and property."
It's a far stronger position on guns than either Romney (who likes guns, just not those nasty assault weapons) or Giuliani (who never met a gun he didn't want turned in and melted down).

From: The Arkansas Leader ^ | 10/16/2007 | Editorial

"Mike Huckabee has been a reliable cheerleader for the administration, too, and like each of the others he claims to be the only unswerving champion of conservatism in the field.

"As we have had occasion to observe, that is not exactly his record as governor of Arkansas. He shepherded greater tax hikes into law than any governor in Arkansas history — all for worthy causes, we think — and expanded government services for the poor. If it is a proud record, it is not one that is commonly associated with Republicans....

"From time to time, most often in New Hampshire, Huckabee has betrayed some of the progressive compassion that marked the old liberal camp of the Republican Party...."
