Message: Entry: Huckabee Puts Faith in President, Easter Eggs Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/huckabee_puts_faith_in_president_easter_egg_analogies#15398 Post contents: I picked up on this also. Huckabee sounded like some nutcase at Free Republic ranting on about WMDs that were secreted away and the glories of pre-emptive war. None of the other pro-War candidates were silly enough to repeat that defense from a bygone era. Heck, half the pro-War blood lusters at Free Republic> don’t even go down that road anymore. I was stunned by this. It is like Huckabee is still reading the talking points from two or three years ago. This was a massive blunder. I have some sympathy for Huckabee based on the very revealing anti-Huck hysteria of the establishmentcons that accompanied his earlier rise. But as much as I hate to say it, he really is a rube. This strikes me as “See, I really am tough on the ‘Islamofascists.’ Really, I am.” Someone needs to slip him a note. “Gov. Huckabee, we’ve moved on from this. These days you are supposed to warn ominously of the dire consequences to the region of our precipitous withdrawal, and dismiss any criticism of the original invasion as talking about the past.” Sent at: 2008 11 21
