Huckabee gave a classy speech. I have to say this for Huckabee, he spent little money but still managed to make a connection with whole blocks of voters and win numerous states. Its very refreshing to see and quite good for the republican party.
So now you guys are stuck with a self professed liberal republican - but you didn't need him to tell you, you all already knew that. And the rest of the republican people in states voting in upcoming republican primaries don't have a voice.
Good work, republicans! I applaud you. Bravo!
Here's the scenario I see playing out:
1. Democrats take the WH in 08;
2. Democrat President eliminates the (highly effective) terror surviellance apparatus allowing us to intercept terrorist attacks;
3. America is hit again (God forbid);
4. Americans vote the GOP into power in the Congress in 2010;
5. Mike Huckabee is elected president in 2012.
Mud,
You better be carefull about laughing at the Republicans, your own party is mighty close to going over a cliff of self destruction.
I have always had a soft spot in my heart for McCain. I think the events of his life have shaped him into a better man. He is flawed-isn't everyone-, but I believe he is open about most of his life. I think people will connect with who he is.
RV - my party is very happy either way things turn out in our primaries. We are not only not going over a cliff, we are stopping the rightwing from leading anybody else over the cliff, and our party will clean up all the messes from the last eight years. Don't kid yourself.
