There seems to be reason to think that both Thompson and Huckabee would try to line up behind McCain for president. In my opinion, that will put a Democrat in the White House.
Well it would be good if he could ruin Mitts chances. Of course he would also need to ruin McCains chances to be truly effective.
I hope both McCain & Huckabee soon go down in flames - will Rudy following behind - would be the best thing that could happen to the GOP.
I guess leaving the Arkansas GOP in shambles isn’t good enough for the opportunistic Huck.
He’s a Fred killer, Mitt killer and a traitorus little McCain tag on.
McCain hates religion and probably would like to “dress up” his campaign with some old fashioned religion to court those evangelical voters.
I hope they get smart enough to know VP ain’t no big deal, especially with a guy like McCain.
Face it, When Huckabee lost South Carolina, it showed that not all “Evangelical voters” like Mike, and that Mike Huckabee’s “one trick pony” theme of carrying the South because most of the South is Southern Baptist is not going to work for him.
I suspect that Huckabee’s campaign is now on the skids.
Uh huh. I thought FRED was McCain’s accomplice. Now HUCKABEE is too?? How many more will join this dark conspiracy, which is no doubt being secretly run by the Illuminati on the orders of the Masons in their guise of the Skull and Bones Society?
And that’s precisely why Fred is still in this- to kill Huck and push Romney. That’s why Huck is praying Fred drops out.
“McCain is desperate to keep conservative Republicans from coalescing around another candidate, and the best way to prevent it is to have the GOP vote fractured,” said University of Virginia political science professor Larry Sabato. “Huckabee knows that by keeping his candidacy alive, he’s potentially helping McCain win another split plurality vote. McCain knows it, too.”
If that is McCain’s logic, then he is brain dead. Florida is his chance of putting this election away. Huckabee is preventing him from doing that.
I might also add that I’ve sworn there are only two candidates who would make me leave the GOP: McCain and Huckabee. Put both of them on the ticket, and it’s a no-brainer.
I've been saying the Huckster was really shooting for the VP slot from the day he entered the race. Voters beware!
The sideshow Huckster gets more sleazy each passing day. He and McCain are certainly two snakes in a bag.
Wheres he going to get the money to continue his “anti mitt” campaign?
Translation;
Liberals like McCain over Romney.
This is so funny... Jonathan Martin has now switched from saying Fred is a stalking horse to saying that Huckabee is McCain’s stalking horse. Does this guy think he’ll have any credibility left after the elections after these kinds of claims?
Go, Fred! Don’t let the media decide who the Republican nominee will be! Let’s take it all the way to the convention.
A Vote for Fred is a Vote for Conservatism!
It should be easy to stand in front of John...look beyond his recognized patriotism and realize he was one among thousands of POWs...being one doesn't make you a military expert.
Oh good, the Huckster has telegraphed that a vote for him is essentially a vote for McInsane. Break out the popcorn cookers and squirrels!
Mitt and Rudi are the two I would least like to see..
Honestly none of them excite me. But after 4 years of being president, someone could look very different.
Ya think? McCain has been using both Huck and Fred to try to stave off Romney from the time he figured out he was going nowhere and had bad poll ratings. He is playing out his game plan. Fred will stay in and so will Huck.
Who is Huckabee sleeping with at Politico? They shill for him on a regular basis. Writing "chameleon-like stances" and "free-spending negative ad campaign" in an article about Huckabee but saying it about Romney is laughable in the extreme.
“Could Huckabee be angling for the number-two spot on McCain’s ticket, or a cabinet position in a McCain administration?”
I thought that was the case until Mike Huckabee was at the Norris ranch on Sunday. Norris said that McCain is too old to be president and Huckabee didn’t refute this. If he was angling, I’m afraid he just did himself in.
