Huckabee with Michelle Obama

Governor Mike Huckabee is a real gentleman – too bad he is also a wacky fundamentalist Christian and works with the yellow journalists at FOX News.  His interview with the First Lady was enduring.  It seems Huckabee understands that Michell Obama is the First Lady – she is not the President.  Huckabee correctly follows a [...]

Obama – Focal Point of Mature Stability

This election was tough.  Hard hitting, loud, boisterous, negative, slanderous, and sometimes mean spirited.  All of us have enjoyed and distressed over the emotional roller coaster.  This was better than any Hitchcock thriller – if tense excitement is what you like.  But the election is over and we are seeing the emotional aftermath.  We can [...]

Huckabee’s Choice Words for Romney

By Michael Luo

Ah, memories.
Among The Caucus’s favorites from campaign days gone by were those from the bitterly cold days of December 2007 preceding the Iowa caucuses, when the silver-tongued Mike Huckabee and his indefatigable sparring partner, Mitt Romney, circled and slashed at each other from dawn until dusk.
The episodes are now in reruns [...]

Politicians dancing with Olberman

Live video entertainment is infecting the ranks of politicians. What are they to do? President Bush seems to enjoy a little frivolity – that may be an understatement. Barack Obama risks the rhythm of race. Hillary is careful singing – and she should be.
The ability to speak eloquently is a given in today’s media obsessed [...]

Lewis Black defends Huckabee

Son
Leave Mike Huckabee alone!  Lewis Black is an outrageous comedian who does this superb spoof of Huckabee’s campaign supporters.  Not exactly in the mold of Chuck NOrris – but entertaining never the less.  Black’s ‘Root of All Evil’ series premieres March 12th on Comedy Central.

Mike Huckabee on SNL

Son,
I don’t know what Mike Huckabee is trying to accomplish.  He has certainly become a national figure – but….  What I one say – he has a good sense of humor, if not a good sense of politics…

I watched this clip with mixed feelings.  This is a former Governor, a good man with a history [...]

Vacuum the votes – but not in a Vacuum

Son,
We are having fun trying to understand the candidates in this 2008 election process. Obama is young and vibrant, Clinton has the bet grasp of issues, McCain is a moderate Republican, Huckabee wants to replace the constitution.  In the nominating process we like to look at the political Parties.  Who is conservative enough, liberal enough, [...]

Huckabee Prepares for 2012

Son,
What is Huckabee doing? Does he believe that he can win the nomination from John McCain? Probably not. Is he trying to build strength so he can influence the Party Platform at the Republican Convention? Perhaps. But he is a young man and I believe he is looking to the future – to 2012.
The Democrats [...]

A Look At Huckabee’s Cabinet

Dad,
I was pondering what Mike Huckabee might do if he were to win the Presidency. I mean after the shocked look wears off. One thing I know he will do is to select a cabinet, and there are some folks that would be prime candidates for his theocracy. Here is how I see his cabinet [...]

Huckabee’s Hope for Future

Son,
Mitt Romney has ’suspended’ his quest for the Presidency. He is showing his business acumen. Large amounts of money have been invested in a marketing campaign that failed to sell the Bosco. Romney knows that he would be throwing good money after bad. So what does this do to the Republican nomination process?
These folks have [...]

Huckabee Speaks on Super Tuesday

Son,
Mike Huckabee is talking on television.  I’ll try to capture the essence.
“A lot of folks are trying to say this is a two man race.  It is, and we are in it!”
“Thanks to Arkansas where we have a wonderful victory here at home.  Thanks to the incredible people who believed in us… And much to [...]

Huckabee uspsets the apple cart

Son,
The conservative talk radio jabber has been all about how McCain is not conservative enough.   Vote for Romney they said.  Wee – their strategy is only half working.  The conservative voters are supporting Huckabee.
If the trends continue we will have a three man race in the Republican Party.  I am happy for the conservative [...]

McCain Supporters torpedo Romney in W. VA.

Son,
The West Virginia Republican primary came to an interesting head today. Mitt Romney got the most votes – but not 50%. Huckabee was second and McCain a distant third.
The McCain supporters joined ranks with the Huckabee folks and they managed a 52% victory – denying Romney a victory.

This is in-your-face politics.

Republican Debate, 1-29-08

Son,
The Republican debate is on CNN tonight. It is being hosted by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. John McCain, Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, and Mike Huckabee are participating. I missed a few minutes because of a black tie affair that I could not get out of.
The question is what about 100 year involvement in Iraq.
Ron [...]

Boring Republicans run a 1994 Campaign

Son,
Much of the media attention is given to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Why is that? Fox news would say it is because the media is too liberal. If the Republicans would ever say anything new perhaps they would be in the news. My notion is that the Republicans are so darn boring.
Listen to the [...]

Racism, just another campaign challenge

Son,
The media is in a big toot about Racism.  Bill Clinton dismissed Obama’s victory in South Carolina by stating that Jesse Jackson won there in 1984 and 1988.  The implication was that Barack Obama is just another black man.  The media interprets this as an attempt to minimize Obama by Clinton.
Well duh!  What do you [...]

GOP Predictions – McCain and Romney

Son,
After the Florida primary the Republican field will shrink. Two candidates will emerge as the front runners. McCain and Romney.
McCain will be seen as the establishment candidate. Thompson, Huckabee, and Giuliani will line up with McCain.
Ronmey will run as the outsider. He will run as the Republican of change. Not a bad mix in this [...]
