Huckabees big problem is that conservatives aren't supporting him either. That's a huge inconvenience when the liberal media supports and sustains you and then no one shows up at the election.

And your evidence for this is...?

Of course conservatives are supporting him. Social conservatives, primarily. Why do you think Romney is attacking him now? Romney wouldn't bother if he didn't think Huckabee had some serious legs.

Wish I had hard evidence, and I don't. I only have his record on the major concervative issues such as immigration, taxation and government interference with personal freedom. Huckabee is a fraud on all points, supported neither by his record as governor nor his performance on the campaign trail.

When I first got excited about Huckabee's potential, all I did was simple research. I was in shock. How did this guy get any sort of conservative support? It doesn't make any sense. On every primary conservative issue he's a dismal failure!

However his rise is consistent with the same phenomenon we've witnessed with the rise of Yankee liberal Romney, insane McCain and "Which color of taffeta goes with my stilleto pumps" Giuliani.

The fact that the liberal MSM is obviously promoting him like the 2nd coming also gives me major concern.

In truth, the media has blacked out the real conservatives: Hunter and Thompson. They've been as active and well received by conservatives as anyone could hope for, but their message is being shunned by the powers that be.

Our party, the GOP, has been hijacked by liberals. This is the sad truth. It's not that they want to be part of the GOP, it's that they want to destroy it forever and split the party.

It's working quite well, don't you think?

Anyway, had to answer you honestly, I don't have "proof" I can turn over on request. Just years of experience and observations, and the results alarms me more than I can describe.

Oh well. We're ripping each other on these candidates now. Hopefully after the smoke clears we can all manage to unite behind a messenger that everyone can support without having bad dreams at night.
