Analysis: Huckabee may have gone too far

By RON FOURNIER, Associated Press WriterTue Jan 1, 11:35 AM ET

Mike Huckabee may have finally gone too far.

After running an unconventional, surprisingly strong and sometimes strange race to the top tier of the Republican presidential campaign, the former Arkansas governor topped himself Monday with an eyebrow-raising campaign stunt.

He called a news conference to unveil a negative ad that he had just withdrawn from Iowa television stations because, he told a room full of journalists recording the ad, he had a sudden aversion to negative politics. Quite a convenient epiphany.

"If people want to be cynical about it," Huckabee said, "they can be cynical about it."

I read about this today. Who is the idiot who advised him to do that?

It depends on how it plays - he either got the ad out there for free, or people see him for the manipulative piece of crap he is.

It all depends on how gullible the public is.

a politician manipulative? really? a baptist preacher manipulative? say it ain't so!

Papa, at least we can agree on that one.

IN Talk of the Nation's 2008 projections, columnist Joel Stein Predicted a Obama-Huck race with Obama carrying every state in the nation except New York, Massachusettes and California- Liberals in those states won't vote for Obama "not because THEY are prejudiced but because the rest of the country just isn't ready for a black president."

That's how I feel about Huck, too. So many people say "Of course, I think he's a hideous right wing boob, but that's what people want!"

Notice is said "how gullible" not whether the public was gullible.

The public is gullible, but at some point, someone has to see that there is someone behind the curtain making crap up as he goes along.

Wouldn't cut and paste imply PJ copied the whole article?
