I think all should wait to see the article this Sunday before casting stones. After all, Huckabee has been accused of attacking Romney simply by stating that he (Huckabee) is a Christian. I have yet to hear a single attack on LDS from Huckabee. Please enlighten me.

Huckabee had this to say about the article (that has not come out yet)...

Huckabee Campaign Responds to AP/New York Times Report
December 11, 2007
LITTLE ROCK, AR – A report released tonight cites an upcoming article in the Sunday edition of The New York Times Magazine which quotes former Arkansas Governor and Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee asking a question about the content of the Mormon faith. In fact, the full context of the exchange makes it clear that Governor Huckabee was illustrating his unwillingness to answer questions about Mormonism and to avoid addressing theological questions during this campaign.

“Governor Huckabee has said consistently that he believes this campaign should center on a discussion of the important issues confronting our nation,” said Senior Advisor, Dr. Charmaine Yoest, “and not focus on questions of religious belief. He wants to assure persons of all faith traditions of his firm commitment to religious tolerance and freedom of worship. Governor Huckabee believes that one of the great strengths of our nation lies in its diversity of thought, opinion and faith.”

All evidence to the contrary.

Thank's for posting that, it's a decent response, and I do think he needed to address this issue.
