Related: About this forumMike Malloy - Kim Davis For President
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee painted fellow GOP presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) as an unwelcome guest at a rally for Kentucky clerk Kim Davis Tuesday, admitting that his staffer physically blocked Cruz from getting on stage.
In a Wednesday appearance on NewsMax TV's "Steve Malzberg Show" first reported by BuzzFeed's Andrew Kaczynski, Huckabee said his campaign planned the event, and he made Cruz's visit with Davis possible.
"Well, Steve, this was our event. My team put it together. Were the ones who recruited the people not only to be on the program, but were the ones who coordinated the effort. Were the ones who secured the permits, the staging," Huckabee told Malzberg. "We had no idea Ted Cruz was going to show up until the day before and he didnt call us, he called several other people on the program and asked about it.
While Huckabee said "anybody's welcome" to attend a free rally, Cruz is "not free to come to an event that were putting together and invite himself on the program anymore than I could go a few weeks ago to his event in Des Moines and just show up and expect to be a speaker. Its real simple."

(10,279 posts)1. I'm with Huckster on this one. He got to Kentucky first. That makes Cruz an interloping
party crasher, while Huckster is simply a self-serving opportunist. Yes, no doubt, Huckster has the higher ground here.

There was a Baby Jane remake with the Redgrave sisters, but nothing tops the original.
