I’ve said this for months and it is totally dead on. For Palin to get a huge bounce in the primaries, she needs to get rid of Clemency Huck first. I, frankly, don’t see the appeal of Huckabee but all the polls show he’s even with Palin and I believe Palin picks up most (not all) or Huck’s voters if Huckabee either doesn’t run or bows out early.

But beware. There’s a bible verse about women not having authority over men and while I believe that is directed at the leadership of the church, some evangelicals believe it translates to leadership of the country as well. Based on that, they may not support Sarah simply due to her gender.

(As a side note, there’s also a verse about the deacons of the church must be the husband of one wife - i.e. never divorced - and refused to vote for Reagan for that reason. Reagan still won big)

Your comments are right in line with t-dude’s. I like that you refer to him as Clemency Huck.

t-dude, those people aren’t concerned that he pardoned criminals and that one went onto murder police officers in Washington state?

Huckabee was the pardon/clemency king of governors.

There is also a chapter about Deborah, assuming they read the Old Testament at all.
