No Hucksters!
No Hucksters? How do you expect to win presidential elections if we ridicule and dismiss anyone who isn’t 100% pure conservative in our opinion? Is Mike Huckabee an enemy? No, he’s not. He’s an ally, and we conservatives better start learning how to build coalitions!
Huckabee tries to tell us what words we can’t say, like rino. How’s that different than the left. I am a Christian first and that is what Huckabee also means to a lot of people, and he may be a good Christian, but he’s a terrible lawmaker. He uses his show to entice Christians. Like some people he says lots of true and good things, then throws or leaves out pertinent info.
The differences between conservatives and the Republican establishment are not merely tactical. The differences are fundamental to the direction of the federal government over the next few years. Huckabee seemed to indicate in his speech that if you think Mitch McConnell deserves being replaced, you are a Nazi.
Think about that. In telling Republicans they should stop using words like RINOs and challenging the Republicans who helped get us to $17 trillion in national debt, Huckabee is upping the ante on the name calling front.
Huckabee was attacked badly yesterday by Democrats who took some of his remarks out of context. I am happy to defend him on those remarks. But I hope he seriously reconsiders these remarks in his disagreements with conservatives. That is really uncalled for. The establishment has no inherent right to re-election and supporting Matt Bevin in Kentucky does not make one a Nazi. It makes one serious about reforming the size and scope of Washington power.
