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?
Fair enough. I hadn’t seen that. I suppose I should have looked it up.
“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 is exactly the kind of rhetoric that caused McCain to be the nominee in 2008. IF you want to lose to Obama in 2012, just keep attacking anyone that isn’t your first choice instead of talking up the positives of your first choice. The GOP cannot repeat the mistakes of 2008 where we imploded. We need to focus, mainly, during the primaries, on WHY will like a particular candidate instead of denigrating those that aren’t our choices.
Don’t listen and you are putting Obama back in for four more years of destruction of the country.
