My major concern is, if Huck does get the nomination, all those making the vitriolic attacks right now will have to swallow hard to vote for him. I don’t say, “Don’t criticize,” I am only saying it should be a little lower key than it is, else you will have to admit hypocracy if you vote for him.

The MSM is setting up Gov. Huckabee, and he is buying into it hook line and sinker. He has only risen to the top because the MSM can have fun showing him as a looser against Hitlery.

This is nothing but setting up a good ole “Fued” when you set the two sides down you find out nobody knows why they are fighting for anyway. Unfortunately, Huckabee is using coon rifles ag’in Hitlery’s cannon “Big Bad Bill”.

Both coming from Arkansas, I sense there was an agreement years ago between the two that set Huckabee as Hitlery’s opponent for an easy win. The Klinton’s do not do things spontaneously-their (Hitlery probably more than Bill) strategies are set years in the future.

Rush is only pointing out the obvious and many can not accept the truth.

[...] Allah: Huck’s people have already begun kissing ass to mitigate the damage. The more the conservative world comes out against him, from Will to Peggy Noonan to NRO to Rush to Sean Hannity, the more he’ll be forced to pitch an “us against them” campaign to his supporters. He’s too far left on too many issues to tack right credibly, so the only way to keep them in the fold is to try to build on that religious and economic populism he’s peddling and make this a full-blown Cause against the conservative establishment. The trick is keeping the few truly big players like Limbaugh neutral, since they really do have the chops to tilt this thing in a two-man race. Sounds like it might already be too late. [...]

Yeah, but I honestly believe Michael just tries to be very fair — to a fault, I guess — and also doesn’t want to criticize someone that he could be supporting in the general election. Cause let’s face it, as much as I dislike Huckabee’s positions, and even Huckabee himself sometimes, I wouldn’t hesitate to support him against any of the pieces of crap running on the Dem side.

This is why I live in a constant state of dodging-what-I-said-last-year. I suppose his way is smarter…

Delighted to hear that. Then we probably agree that:

1) Rush has no desire to lash out at Huck at all, much less figuring how many days he can make it good for.

Right on

2) Rush does not attack, he defends

Right on

1) With Rush, it is all about his audience – the cornerstone of his business.

Right on

I’ve been listening to Rush off and on since ‘88 Mostly on.
Has was the tip of the spear and now is charged with maintaining his 98.8 accuracy level. This country owes him
much. I’m thrilled to have been able to get through at least
once many years ago. The man is special.

The Huckabomber is a (D)emocrat pretending to be a (R)epublican spouting the exact rhetoric the most hystrionic (D)emocrats unfairly use to smear (R)epublicans.

In other words… he is Hillary(D)’s designated (R)epublican nominee..

Peggy Noonan is anti-Huckabee? Hmm, that means he must have something going for him. Maybe I should reevaluate my possition.

As with Rush, I identify with conservatism, not necessasarily Republicans. I think Michelle and the Hot Air gang might be a tad conservative as well.

The Huckster is no conservative. Nope. And how does that old song go, don’t tug on Superman’s cap, don’t spit into the wind…

I usually enjoy Medved’s style and his smart and level-headed approach. This is the second time I have found him way out in left field. The last time was when he was defending the GOP Senators on Shamnesty.

When I disagree with him, he seems really nuts. Maybe it’s just me…

There was a time when Rush was on the tip of the spear
Now he is just left to bringing up the rear
Others were on the march quite some time ago
And he is just now beginning with the heave-ho
Paul Revere anymore he is certainly not
But at least he is now coming out against the Dingleberry Camelot
