I’m missing something here. Why all the Huckabee hate? I mean, yeah, Sarah Palin is a great candidate, but why bash Huckabee because of it?
Are there political platforms that Huckabee holds that need to be shot down? Has Huckabee done something morally repugnant that he should be rejected for?
Yes, and Yes!
Huckabee hold that it is “Un-Christian” to deny benefits to illegal aliens. He is a big government social conservative, not a small government conservative.
As far as moral repugnance, he swept under the rug by ‘killing the messenger’ the torture murder of a dog by his son. He also has the “O Brother Where Art Thou?” approach to clemency for convicted murderers, and was basically giving away “Get out of Jail Free” cards to anybody he thought sufficiently remorseful to the Lord.
As a candidate it would be harder to think of a more flawed, vapid, and damaging candidate.
I would not only not vote for Huckabee, I wouldn't vote for a ticket with Huckabee on it even in the VP slot.
That answer your questions?
