to conflate natural disasters in a state which Huckabee is no longer governor of with a PAC designed to promote conservative candidates in the most important mid-term election in American history. YOU are pathetic for suggesting that somehow fundraising is not in order at this critical time, and for impugning Huckabee as pathetic for making a timely, informative post on here. Excuuuuuuuuuuse him for including his website at the end of his entry.

You’re the elitist one, slamming anything and everything Huckabee has to say because you’re scared to death that a true conservative (not libertarian) like him will be our next nominee.

Next time lower your venom dosage before posting…and up the dosage on your medication.

Or, in the language of Slashdot:

1) Copy and paste a press release to a conservative web site.
2) Don’t bother to follow up to any of the comments.
3) Receive donations from suckers.
4) Profit!

It’s offensive when, given the numbers HuckPAC has shown in the past, they’ve certainly got an intern who could be reading and replying. Hmm, maybe they did assign the job to an intern who is, instead, working on his beer pong skillz.

“Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee runs closer to Obama than any other Republican in the field, taking 44 percent of the vote to the president’s 46 percent. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney trails by a slightly wider margin, taking 42 percent to Obama’s 45 percent.

Huckabee and Romney are at this point the strongest challengers to Obama, according to the national survey of 650 adults.”

Redstate is a reflection of America, where conservatives come together to debate and promote the cause. The poll shows that among Republicans, Huckabee is in the lead to be our standard bearer in the next presidential election. While it is too early to debate who is better on our issues for 2012, it is not too early to defend Huckabee as deserving of our respect. Furthermore, not only does he have great credibility here at redstate, there is no other person who is polling better than him against Obama right now. NOBODY. The conservatives support him because he is in line with our issues without any flip-flopping. That gives him a lot more credibility than some others as I could mention (but won’t because the calendar still says 2010 and we have an important midterm to focus on right now).

Study politics.

Cheney was a VP. VPs are the attack dogs of their campaigns and administrations; hence Cheney attacks Teh Won, and Gore attacked W. (Quayle…well, he was just Quayle. But Mondale attacked Reagan…)

And accusing me of casting W as blameless is fightin’ words. You would be hard pressed to find any conservative more…”displeased”…with 43 than I. Even so, I can’t help but respect the dignity with which he, and Reagan before him, treated the office when he held it, and after he left it. Especially in contrast to the character or ability — or lack thereof — of those who came before and after.

And yes — ex-Presidents “used to” help in times of crisis — because the current President asked. The Xes — the good ones, anyway — don’t interject themselves, they are asked. Usually those sorts of things involve a big Rose Garden PR stunt, with the current and Xes all lined up for the camera, and speeches…I musta been out clearing tarballs from the beach when that happened.

But again, we’re talking about an ex-governor here, not an ex-president. So…do you really think Beebe should have invited Huck to some press conference to help him express condolences? Or that Huck should stomp all over the news coverage by interfering in the Beebe Administration’s handling of the affair?

I guarantee you would be the first on the barricades to criticize him as an interfering busybody with no business intruding on the grief of the affected families if he did. I can hear it already: “He’s obviously just trying to get more camera time to help chase the nomination…”

Look, I’m no Huck fan, but at least TRY to be rational about your opposition, K?

Hucka Hucka will attract the social conservative vote, that much I agree with and unfortunately he will once again play the spoiler.

As we saw with the Kerfuffle recently over recent comments about “Truces” and such, there is are a whole bunch of folks like I assume you who don’t want to make the nomination about beating Obama on competency and a real record of running a government. Hucka Hucka will pander to those folks and you “Big Time” and have a pretty big following.

and Palin would not pick him to be her Veep.

At this time in the last presidential election cycle, nobody thought Clinton would lose to a guy named Barak Obama. Look for a similar winner this time—only out of right field rather than left

So go ahead, and keep talking about how your guy will beat Romney. I suspect he will, but it won’t matter.
