Seems as if they dislike him because “As governor of Arkansas, Huckabee dramatically increased state spending. During his two-term tenure, spending increased by more than 65 percent — at three times the rate of inflation.
The number of government workers increased by 20 percent, and the state’s debt services increased by nearly $1 billion. Huckabee financed his spending binge with higher taxes. Under his leadership, the average Arkansan’s tax burden increased 47 percent, according to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, including increases in the state’s gas, sales, income, and cigarette taxes. He raised taxes on everything from groceries to nursing home beds.”
What could be wrong about a candidate who was foursquare for wage-breaking, even while governor of a small, impoverished State whose chickenmongers were determined to carry out "in-State outsourcing" of grueling, low-pay jobs to Mexican illegals?
