“If you do not want Huckabee for GOP POTUS, state facts why he would not be good at it.”
You have your cart before the horse. I did state my main reason for not wanting to see Huckabee in the race. I don’t think he stands a chance of winning, not the primaries and not the general. As for the rest of it, I’ll let you go first, since you are giving the orders. How do you think Huckabee is going to handle the illegal immigration problem, or the healthcare mess that will exist come 2012, or the devalued, defamed dollar that will exist then? How will he deal with 20 percent unemployment, an energy crisis, state controlled banks and industry, a greatly weakened military and a world that laughs at America? Imagine the world after Carter, only infinitely worse. In fact, make a list of conditions you think could exist in 2012, keeping in mind what has happened over the past eight months. Imagine the worst, and ask who you would want in the White House to deal with the problems. Go through the list. Tell me why you think Huckabee would be the best choice, and I’ll get back to you in another year or two, when I see what my other choices are going to be. Oh, let’s not forget, Republicans could win back Congress in 2010, and turn things around, like they did after Clinton’s disastrous first two years, and Obama could actually be electable come 2012, like Clinton was. Tell me why you think Huckabee would be the man to beat him. And for the record, I didn’t say Huckabee wouldn’t make a good president, though I have my doubts, and I didn’t say I wouldn’t vote for him, should he be my only choice. That’s more than I gave McCain before Palin entered the picture.
