Semi-Live Blogging Mike Huckabee


We all thought that John McCain would bring a level of civil discourse to the campaign.  That hasn’t been the case.

I’m listening to Huckabee right now and realize that he was the guy who would have raised that discourse.  This is a civil speech, a thoughtful speech, one that was worthy of a civil discourse.

Oh wait.  He just played the cheese eating surrender monkey card.  Oh well.

I can’t help wondering, though, if the Europeans are such evil socialist taxing communists, why is it that their currency is kicking the butt of our currency?

Have to admit that her line about Palin getting more votes as Mayor than Biden got running for President was good.  Too bad it’s not true.

“John McCain helped me have a school desk.”  That was one weird story.

Still, this is the speech of a guy who’s going to be a serious player in national politics in the future. Imagine just how much trouble the Democrats would be in had he been the VP.

    Mike Huckabee would’ve been a strong VP candidate, however Palin brings an aweful lot to the table as well. I can’t wait for her speech later!

    Mike Huckabee didn’t play any “card.” He spoke the truth and did it in a logical, civil, humorous, and touching way.

    Most European countries are socialist countries. In case you’re not aware, many European countries were in deep financial trouble and still would be, if the European Union was never formed, along with the Euro. All of those European countries formed together, out of necessity, to compete with the global market and thus, their currency is now worth more than the U.S. dollar. Please learn more about history before making comments you know little about next time. Oh, and Huckabee never claimed Europeans were “evil communists.” Please stop making stuff up, trying to smear Huckabee.

    Where is your proof that Huckabee’s joke about Palin receiving more votes than Biden did running for President? That’s right, you don’t have proof. Again, making stuff up.

    I suppose Huckabee’s touching desk story went way over your head too. That’s the problem with many Americans today. They don’t appreciate, nor understand that our “freedom,” was paid for by the blood and bravery of our veterans.

    You were right about one thing. If Huckabee was treated fairly during the primaries, instead of being smeared and disrespected by all those who hate and/or fear the “Christian right,” the Democrats would have been in BIG trouble right now. A Huckabee/McCain ticket would destroy Obama/Biden.

    MC: In ‘96 mayor’s race, Palin got 616 votes. Biden got 638 Votes in New Hampshire Primary alone. You can look it up.
