The happiest people tonight are the Huckabee supporters. They've got a formidable GE candidate

[Carrieyazel]

The Repukes have gotten their wish. The only electable candidate the Repukes have is about to save their putrid asses in November. He'll wipe the floor with Obama, if BO is the nominee.

[Clintonista2]

1. Christ, just shut up & slink away

Please.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. Huckabee? Electable?

I don't think so. The mainstream corporate/neocon GOPers don't like him a bit. All he has is the fundies, which Iowa has a lot of. Don't expect him to take New Hampshire.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

3. That Was Uncalled For And Messed Up

~

[SaveElmer]

4. Huckabee is a dream GE candidate...

For Democrats...

McCain is the one to worry about

[rockymountaindem]

5. Sez you

Huckabee may drive a wedge between the religious and business wings of the Republican party and hand the election to us. I think he would make a poor President, but he may just be the weakest of their field.

Besides, he hasn't clinched anything yet.

[TwilightGardener]

6. You're insane.

[Beetwasher]

7. ROFL! Oh Man, I HOPE He's The Nominee!!!

:rofl:

[peacetheonlyway]

8. fundamentalist christians are 10% of the total population

huckabee won't get more than 10% of the GE votes.

people are not that stupid to elect a republican with all they did to rip us off.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

28. The Huckster Isn't Beating Anybody

But just having a (R) or (D) after your name gets you to around 40%...

Goldwater, McGovern, and Mondale proved that...

[Mythsaje]

9. Oh, wait...

:rofl:

Are you nuts?

[Kittycat]

10. Surely you're not that clueless? eom

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

11. WTF!!!!

That is worthy of Free Republic, if for nothing more than the delusional Huckster love. :wtf: MKJ

[bcoylepa]

12. So not necessary

give it a break - time will tell about Huckabee ( i think he will wear thin quickly) but for sure Obama has what it takes to go all the way - and if he can do this in Iowa - watch out
Go Obama - good for the country.

[thatsrightimirish]

13. How Inspirational!!!!

With the doomsday scenario you gave us you sound like a Rudy supporter.

[girl gone mad]

14. I agree he's their most viable candidate, aside from McCain..

I don't agree that it would be a blowout for him in the GE. I'm very concerned that we will be in the exact place we were in 2004: A feel good fundie regular-talking guy vs. an ivy league intellectual rambler. I think Obama would be a better candidate than Kerry, but Huckabee could also be better than Bush.

[Carrieyazel]

22. Huckabee IS NOT Bush. He's actually competent, intelligent and not as divisive as Shrub

A lot of Democrats I know, who despise Shrub, actually find Huckabee very likable.

[JenniferJuniper]

33. Oh, not that

who-would-you-rather-have-a-beer with shit again.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

34. The Democrats you know are not very well informed at all, I know Republicans who can't stand him.

What the hell? MKJ

[Caution]

15. ROFLMAO

That might be the funniest, stupidest post in DU history and believe me that is saying something!

[proud2BlibKansan]

16. WTF??

:wtf:

[TransitJohn]

17. Yeah he'll get all

the homeschoolers. Somehow, I don't think that will win him a general election.

[Occam Bandage]

18. Formidable? Electable? Hahahahahaha.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

19. Huckabee? Please.

He's a pasty Alan Keyes.

[jackster]

20. the neocons and corporate cons

are in now way going to let Huck get the nomination. They want the evangelical vote, but they shore don't want one of em in office.

Ladies and gents, the republican party continues to crumble

BUT the evangelicals scare me - they vote - in large numbers. If we don't get the rethugs out of office we're still going to see Patrick Henry College graduates as interns all over Capitol Hill.

[razors edge]

21. You shouldn't smoke that stuff

if its gonna affect you that way.

[mmonk]

23. Happy is exactly the first thought that comes to my mind when thinking

of Huckabee supporters.

[underpants]

24. Don't think so

[alteredstate]

25. You can't ruin this night.

:P

[TheDonkey]

26. Hickabee has warts that will doom him. Let's not defeat OURSELVES

with comments like you make.

[Labors of Hercules]

27. come here a minute...

Let me give you the number of an excellent psychotherapist friend of mine, and please, seek help.

[JenniferJuniper]

29. Even Coultergeist

has said Huckabee would croak the Republicans. But as much as I'd love to see it, I don't think he'll end up the nominee.

[Alexander]

30. The crybabies are really out in full force tonight.

Poor baby!

[Political Heretic]

31. Wow... everyone in this room is now dumber for having heard you. I award you no points....

...and my god have mercy on your soul. :)

[karynnj]

32. Huckabee is crazy

I thought he would be tough to beat a year ago - but he has said at least one utterly weird thing a week for months. He has baggage that is pretty extensive.

[Chovexani]

35. Hey, opposite day was yesterday

:hi:

[katmondoo]

36. It's a good thing I just bought a sewing machine

I can start working on a burka just in case. Women-- start practicing walking 10 feet behind your husband. I hate the people who vote for him.

[yellowcanine]

37. No way, Huckabee will split the Republican Party. Obama will pick off moderate Republicans and

Independents. Huckabee has some enormous negatives that will get lots of play in the primaries and the GE. Moderate Republicans and Independents don't give a crap what Obama's middle name is. And the ones who do will never vote for a Democrat anyway.

[Mz Pip]

38. Won't happen

Huckabee has no money and the powers that be in the GOP will not support him. THey will keep their money and regroup for 2012.

I doubt Huckabee will even win the nomination.

If Huckabee wins the nomination the GOP will abanodon him just like the Democratic big wigs abandoned McGovern in
1972.

Pat Robertson won Iowa. That's where the GOP base is in Iowa. Loony toons fundy fringe. Huckabee hasn't saved their asses. He's just made them look even more ridiculous than they already are.

[Doctor_J]

39. With Obama on our side, even some FUNDIES will be voting Dem

You need to put down the crack pipe and head over to freeperville
