Whose idea was it to give the Huckster his own show?

[Steerpike]

Turned on Fox News last night and there he was. Can't stand Gov. Huckabee, myself.

And in a telling illustration of just how far he's sunk, Dan Rather is the guest.

Sheesh.

He's kind of got a cute personality, I watched him jam on his guitar on one of his episodes.

 

[Steerpike]

A guitar, eh?

He came across very wooden last night. It's like he didn't realize Hayden Christensen had already beat him for the role of the grown-up Anakin Skywalker.

Do you like him politically?

Huckabee is a fairly level headed guy with good ideas.

The liberal media unfairly slandered him because they wanted Obama.

 

[Steerpike]

I don't know. He always seemed kind of slimy to me, in a John Edwards sort of way.

Huckabee is the real deal. He always walked-the-walk in Arkansas. Many didn't like him, but it was because they didn't agree with his politics or his religious beliefs. He actually used to be a Democrat, but when abortion became part of the Democratic Party Platform, he couldn't stay. There was another politician from Hope who was real sleazy, but not Huckabee.

he has a cute accent too, sometimes he seems real sweet.

Huckabee is a neoconservative. I never voted for him, but he was one of those rare 'honest' politicians.

i didnt vote for him either
and i doubt i ever would
as for "honest", didnt he kinda stretch the truth on his educational background?

I don't remember that, but there are gaps in my knowledge of Arkansas politics. Huckabee is actually a Democrat at heart, which goes a long way in explaining why he is a neoconservative.

what does that even mean? McCain beat Huckie for the nomination.... are you trying to insinuate that Huckie could've beaten Obama?
