Republican primary

I'll tell you, Gov Mike Huckbee gave a great, rousing capitulation speech. Remember the Alamo he said, essentially, which is a bit odd for a conciliatory speech. But, man, Huckabee is a riveting and engaging speaker. I hope he sticks around.

He is too much of a morals candidate for me, but he is/was right on class warfare issues. I enjoyed his humor. A fond adieu.

Yeah - waayyy too churchy and moralistic for me. I heard this from someone and thought it quite true. Huckabee is a Baptist minister and as a minister has probably heard plenty of stories of economical struggle from 'good people.' People who work, pay their taxes, etc., and he surely understands that chasm that separates the 'haves' and 'have nots.'

I thought he was freakin' funny (humorous).
