Huckabee and the corporate whore/fundie schism in the GOP
I can not even begin to tell you how much hatred is being spewed on right wing talk radio and Repug blogs about Mike Huckabee. I think it is great, because it will just enrage the fundies in the long run, as the asshole corporate whores in the party have seem to forgotten just who puts Republicans in office. Here is a sampling of one such jerk off who has forgotten ...

It is going to be an exciting political season!

1. That's why Rev. Huckleberry will make an excellent nominee.
They'll all eat each other alive.

8. The Possibility of pResident Huckabee is Too Dangerous to Risk That
Edited on Fri Dec-14-07 12:55 AM by AndyTiedye
It is too easy for a Repiglicon to win the Presidency, and the consequences of a Hickabee pResidency too dire.

If Bush** could "win" the pResidency twice, Hickabee certainly could win.
He has far more charisma, and the Religious Wrong backs him 100%.

All of the Repig candidates are scary, but Hickabee is the scariest of them all by far.

4. The GOP could have a real bloodbath/revolt coming.
The party is bitterly divided.

9. Nice.
Get a friend to call in as a snarky corporatist and be outraged at one another.

B-)

6. Repugs are realizing their mistake (too much religion)
http://townhall.com/columnists/CharlesKrauthammer/2007/12/13/knee-deep_in_religion

...This campaign is knee-deep in religion, and it's only going to get worse. I'd thought that the limits of professed public piety had already been achieved during the Republican CNN/YouTube debate when some squirrelly looking guy held up a Bible and asked, "Do you believe every word of this book?" -- and not one candidate dared reply: None of your damn business...

and

http://townhall.com/columnists/RichLowry/2007/12/13/huckacide

...The GOP's social conservatism inarguably has been an enormous benefit to the party throughout the past 30 years, winning over conservative Democrats and lower-income voters who otherwise might not find the Republican limited-government message appealing. That said, nominating a Southern Baptist pastor running on his religiosity would be rather overdoing it. Social conservatism has to be part of the Republican message, but it can't be the message in its entirety...

Too late!

:evilgrin: :nopity: :eyes:
