One interesting thing of note last night was the speech given by Huckabee. It's interesting in how well it played. Notice that Huckabee sounded very much like a Democratic candidate. Basically stealing the same language of "change". This is of course the same basic tactic Republicans have used for the past several elections. Using very vague language to sound very much like his democratic challenger. Creating the "no differnce in the two parties effect". Note the difference with Obama that started general but hammered home on policy. The democratic challenger must continue along the lines of Edwards and Obama last night. They must hammer home what "change" means for American policy. They can't give Hillary like speeches that sounded almost like Huckabee. Huckabee is the candidate for "change" if change means changing Rethug president from a person that feigns religious conviction to gather the sheep vote, to one that was once one of the sheep. The media this morning is already running with the Obama/Huckabee sign of "change" in the party story. Thus confusing voters. The Democratic party voted for change in policy, the Republican party voted for change in party leadership with the old guard losing to a man generally representing the average "used" republican. That's a big difference! A difference totally ignored by the MSM. When forced to talk about policy in his interview after his speech Huckabee said he was for keeping taxes low, protecting the second amendment. Wow feel the wind of change.
