Finally someone displays a better understanding of history and what propelled Reagan to electoral success than Limbaugh, et. al. and acknowleges that Huckabee is closest to that template.

It is utterly ridiculous to villify Huckabee the way he has been on radio and on these threads. Even the MSM has tried to limit Huckabee's appeal to evangelicals, when there are far more qualities that Huckabee possesses and that should make him an extremely attractive candidate for the Republican faithful as well as and more importantly, the squooshy middle, come November.

Huckabee has shown that he is the best campaigner by far than any of the remaining opponents. With the least money, the least name recognition, and the most constant barrage of calumny aimed at him, he is still holding his own.

He is by far the best the rep. party has to go against the Clinton machine.

McCain is too old and unpredictable, Giuliani too associated with one issue and lacks any comparable experience, and Romney is just Romney. His melt down when asked a question by that AP reporter showed a man who prone to panic. If his financial advantages, and his photogenic looks and political lineage can only produce such a tepid response, he will be no match for the Clintons.

The Clintons are the N.E. Patriots of politics. We have to appreciate how they overcame a double digit deficit in New Hampshire to squeak out a win. A truly amazing feat. So we have to put up our best player, our best politician, our hardest worker, our most likable guy if we are to prevent another eight years of the Clinton nightmare.

Good analysis.

FreeRepublic.com is teetering on the top of the shark’s fin right now, IMHO.

Finally. Another Huckabite to come gather in the self-congratulatory circle on how much smarter they are. Nevermind that the guy who ran as a Christian ran a singularly misleading candidacy. I mean, if the Mormons are a cult, but the Baptist pastor lies just as much, how is the Mormon the bad guy?
