He was barred from appearing at the New Hampshire debate moderated by Charlie Gibson and more recently was excluded from the Fox News debate in South Carolina.

He was also blacked out from the second NH "debate" by Faux news and faux polls that did not have Hunter's name on them, thereby he could not get the 5% they say he needed to receive in their faux poll.

God Bless the NH GOP. They seem to be the only members of the GOP with any honor or guts. If the RNC had any honor they would have put a stop to the circus commonly referred to as the "debates" a long time ago. They should have demanded equal time/questions for every republican candidate. After the "plant" debate and most especially after the CNN phony debate, they should have pulled the plug.

For three years I have been here reading as everyone whined and posted great graphics about the spineless republicans. Now we know why...the National party are a bunch of spineless wimps. We have ONE...ONE man with the courage, the honor and the integrity to stand up to the enemedia, the national party and the OBL/globalist crowd and no one will defend him.

Looking at the Republican field

Cato Institute’s Fiscal Policy Report Card on America’s Governors: 2006.

Arkansas
Mike Huckabee, Republican Legislature: Democratic
Final-Term Grade: F
Final Overall Grade: D

Thanks to a final term grade of F, Huckabee earns an overall grade of D for his entire governorship. Like many Republicans, his grades dropped the longer he stayed in office. In his first few years, he fought hard for a sweeping $70 million tax cut package that was the first broad-based tax cut in the state in more than 20 years. He even signed a bill to cut the state’s 6 percent capital gains tax—a significant progrowth accomplishment.

But nine days after being reelected in 2002, he proposed a sales tax increase to cover a budget deficit caused partly by large spending increases that he proposed and approved, including an expansion in Medicare eligibility that Huckabee made a centerpiece of his 1997 agenda. He agreed to a 3 percent income tax “surcharge” and a 25-cent cigarette tax increase. In response to a court order to increase spending on education, Huckabee proposed another sales tax increase. Huckabee wants to run for the GOP presidential nomination next year. He’s already been hailed as a viable big-government conservative candidate by some. That seems about right: Huckabee’s leadership has left taxpayers in Arkansas much worse off.

Apparently the good folks in Arkansas had a rough time of it with Mike Huckabee: Big Government Conservative.

Huckabee was in line with these governors:

Montana Brian Schweitzer (D)* 47 F
Alabama Bob Riley (R) 47 F
Washington Christine Gregoire (D)* 47 F
Arkansas Mike Huckabee (R) 46 F
Nevada Kenny Guinn (R) 46 F
Delaware Ruth Ann Minner (D)* 44 F
North Carolina Michael Easley (D)* 44 F
Arizona Janet Napolitano (D) 43 F
Louisiana Kathleen Blanco (D)* 43 F
Ohio Bob Taft (R) 53 C
Kentucky Ernie Fletcher (R) 53 C
Maryland Robert Ehrlich (R) 53 C
Vermont James Douglas (R) 53 C
Michigan Jennifer Granholm (D) 53 C

I'll be a ring-tailed sidewinder if you ain't right!
