Many conservatives don’t support vouchers for parents, preferring tax credits. I.e., they believe vouchers are more “statist.”

So, it is your position that Governor Huckabee was asked if he supports vouchers for education choice by the NEA and he said "absolutely no way." And they were like, "Yay. We like you." But really, he's for choice, just against vouchers, but for tax credits.

Do you find that troubling? I'm guessing no.

1. I doubt he said, "No way."

2. Some of the most conservative of conservative activists around are against vouchers in favor of tax credits, so not "troubling." Me, I'm more of a pragmatist on it.

Wow, there sure is a rush to throw mud on Huckabee, but so many are so forgiving of Thompson's Stephen A. Douglas type hedging on our fundamental Right to Life and on the very definition of our most basic social contract of marriage.
