Good for Obama- bad for Hillary:)

Turned on MSNBC earlier for a few minutes- I had no IDEA how many of them are against Hillary and are FOR Obama- some of em- like Mike Barnicle- were hostile toward Hillary..

I completely and thoroughly agree.

I’m fed up with the type-casting.

I totally agree with your view. This is a set-up of Huckabee - the Bible-thumping Christian Pastor/Candidate so that everyone who is a Christian is associated with him.

When they take him down, they will target anyone who says they are a Christian.

The sad thing is, that Huckabee and all his church groupies don’t even have a clue as to how they’re being used.

I hope so. The pundits only talk about how a high turnout will effect the Dems. Romney and Thompson are the only 2 Republicans who seem to have momentum.

“Anti-Christian fever will overtake this country faster than anti-Islam, especially if a Democrat is elected. Watch.”

Anti-Christian fever has already overtaken this country. Our primary job as Christians is not to act as unpaid support squadrons for one or the other of these politicians.

Does Drudge think they will finish in that order? :)

When the MSM is done with Huck, there won't be one Christian left in this country who won't be associated with Huckabee's brand of Christianity.

Well said - that scares me about Huck more than his policies.

“When they take him down, they will target anyone who says they are a Christian.”

Last I checked, Christians were already being targeted. That’s just part of the price of being a Christian.

I think it’s worth it.

Ron Paul may also benefit by a high turnout, but he is so far down it should only move him from 6th to 5th.

McCain and Giuliani hurt the most with a good turnout IMO. Huckabee and Hunter would probably not see much difference either way.
