Huckabee's dangerous, no doubt about it...
"I'd rather work with an open atheist than someone who calls himself a Christian but doesn't act like it."

He seems sincere, and that's really dangerous.

1. However,
he clearly wants to turn the campaign podium
and the white house into a religious revival
meeting.

That guy creeps me out.

2. He IS a "christian" who doesn't act like it. He's full of shit. I don't know
why anyone would buy his overheated melodramatic rhetoric.

4. Yeah, he scares the crap outta me.
He seems very sincere; much better at the charming thing than Bush but still a hypocrite with a sinister agenda. :scared:

to care about me, my vote, my needs.(he was talking about helping the poor and such) As for the religion thingy - he seems to try to downplay it now

8. What's really dangerous
is that there's still a large enough contingent of Republicans to put a nutter like that over the top. With enough in reserve to place Romney second. It seems 7 years of pain, tumult, and wreckage has only whetted their appetites for more of the same.

10. Yes, those who never question and thus can never be wrong are extremely dangerous.
Those who are uncertain and wish to have structure follow those who seem certain. Sometimes unquestioningly.

13. He's a greedy rethug. Don't let the hound dog eyes fool you.
He's the status quo.

14. He's still AGAINST stem cell research.
I do not care if he is a minister, he is still my enemy.

18. He is scum, that's for sure.
I am a little worried about Huckabee. The only thing keeping me from being really worries is that a caucus like Iowa tends to bring out the true believers and maybe the non-nutcases stated home. and will hopefully vote for a non-republican if he is the nominee.

20. So he's a liar, what else is new?
If he truly doesn't want to work with "someone who calls himself a Christian but doesn't act like it", why is he a member of the Republic party? That's about all they're good for.
