Ah yes - but don’t forget that someone who dodged the draft, took a no-show National Guard job, is geography and foreign policy challenged, made a decorated Vietnam vet cry uncle. If there is a way for the Democrats to mess this up, I’m pretty sure they will.

For me his comment on “Quarantine of AIDS victims” was by far the worst. This coming from a minister; where is the compassion?

Oh, Lynne… let’s talk about Huckabee tomorrow on LeftAhead! I’d just die to jump at the chance… between submissive women and gays-are-the-end-of-civilization nonsense, it would just be too much fun.

Bob - point taken!
Though, besides Hilary, to be honest, I like our choices. (Well, a couple of the third tier candidates aren’t great, but they have a shot in hell at this point really.)

What scares me is this crap goes over really well in the South. The chances of Hillary or Obama carrying the South are about……zero. Romney?? too eastern, although he’s from the Midwest. Giuliani?? Too sleazy. Huckleberry Huckabee?? Just what they’re lookin’ fer.

I Love submissive women. A soon as my wife says it’s okay I’m going to go get me one!

I voted for Bush in the past two elections. I have also voted for Bill Clinton in the past. I consider myself a moderate. I could not vote for John Kerry or Al Gore. I just couldn’t find common groud with either of them and I just didn’t feel like a connection to them. If Huckabee is the Republican nominee I will vote for the Democrat. No matter who he or she is. Everything I’ve read recently about who Huckabee is and what he believes really scares me. And People are worried about Romney’s religion. This guy is a Trojan horse. Quarintine Aids patients, relegate women to the kitchen where he belives they belong, support of tuition for illegals, not just tuition but grants (I can’t get that for my college aged child). Yikes!!! This guy is a Democrats dream to run against. As a woman I just cannot vote for a guy like this.

Huckabee’s got a point, but he really should have added that you should switch off once in a while to keep things from getting boring.
Oh, he meant it THAT way. Naw, that’s just nuts.

I also suspect that Huckabee isn’t one of those those “moderate one’s language once in the general election.” So I hope (fervently) that if he wins the nomination, everyone will get a chance to know these crazy things about him.
joe: LMAO!
