A VOTE FOR HUCKABEE IS A VOTE FOR HUCKABEE!!

Huckabee - reliably pro-life, not recently pro-life.

Huckabee - reliably pro 2nd amendment, not recently 2nd amendment.
He understands that it is for self defense, not just hunting and sports.

He is an ardent, articulate supporter of the Fair Tax, and I believe he really “gets it”. It is the best hope on the horizon for giving power back to the people, and waking people up to the stranglehold the current tax system has on the people and the economy.

If Duncan Hunter believes he can be trusted on border/immigration and WOT issues, I would trust Duncan Hunter’s informed, educated judgment after he spent a year getting to know the candidates, than I would trust the opinion of any of the haters on here.

Don’t let the people who say he can’t be elected give us another self fulfilling prophecy of having to settle for someone we have to HOPE will do what he says. Right now it’s just name recognition, and when most people get to know Mike Huckabee, they like him.

They were both governors, but those people give Romney a pass for not being able to do what he “really” wanted, because he had a Democrat legislature to work with, when Huckabee was able to work successfully with his Democrat legislature.

Every vote for Mike Huckabee on Tuesday will be one more vote to show the establishment and the media that the election can’t be bought and we don’t to settle for their opinion of “that’s the best we can get”.

Yeah I was looking at the MTV stats. 25% said after hearing him they would probably vote for him. I was watching him on CSPAN today. I wasn’t too impressed with the answer the question part. That seemed kind of rehearsed but when he turned and spoke to the audience and joked with the reporters he connected. Reminded me of George Bush. If we can keep his feet to the fire and hide our wallets we may have a guy that can beat the Democrats.

Duncan Hunter was my first choice, so I was disappointed with his endorsement of Huckabee. Hunter didn’t support Romney because his former company Bain Capital was doing a deal with China which had to be checked for security issues. I understand his concern with this but as I understand it Romney was already out of Bain Capital when they made this deal.

Romney has talked a lot about making America competitive with China. I would like to see what he would do and don’t forget he has a great track record with start up companies and troubled companies that he turned around. Unfortunately, Romney has not been in politics all his adult life so he doesn’t have a long list of politician buddies who can endorse him.

Much of Romney’s experience is in business so people don’t know about his great achievemnts. I think his achievements are more impressive than Huckabee or McCain because in politics it is easy to cover up your mistakes. In business your mistakes result in red ink on the bottom line. Romney put his money on the line every day whereas McCain and Huckabee could get by by fooling the voters which doesn’t seem like such a difficult thing to do.

Did Huckabee have enough Republicans to sustain a veto? Massachusetts didn’t even have enough Republicans to sustain a veto.

Does Arkansas have gay marriage? This shows you how much more extreme Massachusetts is to Arkansas.
