You know the funniest thing about these kinds of comments? That these guys think we are all still living in the 50s and 60s where comments like that would be quite ordinary and supported. They STILL don't have a clue that saying stuff like that is NO LONGER going to endear them with the majority of their listeners. They are like deer in the headlights when the backlash hits them...and then they try to squirm out of taking responsibility for their own words like the fossilized throwbacks they are. I love it every single time.

The mainstream is no longer what they think it is.
Perhaps, since now you're the expert in what "the mainstream" is, you'd like to offer some evidence?
Huckabee simply says what everyone already knows: The only reason queers are tolerated is because society is FORCED to tolerate them through the courts' retarded interpretation of the "right of free expression" vs. statues that would reflect mainstream attitudes (legal gay marriage). There is no REAL "mainstream" change in attitude from '50's and '60's.
