Let me be the first to call the Huck a RINO.

That is a fact. You are 2 for 2 for today.

Wow. You actually think the Huck is a RINO? Really? I assume he passes the moral test? Is it the big government conservatism that you don’t like in him?

I know I tend to se a wiseassed jerk at times on here, but I find this truly fascinating. Please explain this better for me.

Thanks.

You wouldn’t believe how independent vooters think Obama wasn’t born in the US. Huckabee has to stay in the middle to get these votes. Many independents vote Tea Party too.

Trump’s main platform issue is birtherism? Really?

Just cuz the media is so focused on that, working over time to protect he himself, doesn’t mean Trump is. I have heard him speak to the seriousness of the issues, just cuz liberal lefty pundits/journos/propagandists don’t cover what he has to say on those topics doesn’t mean he hasn’t or doesn’t address them.

Geeze.

You libs really need to get off the birtherism subject; you are now competing with Chris Matthews and David Gregory on amount of time being focused on the birth thingy.

True. Trump is also a RINO. Not just a birther.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump

Trump had switched to the Democratic Party from the Republican Party in 2001 and again registered as a Republican in 2009.[63] Trump said in an interview in 2007, “I’m very much independent in that way. I go for the person, not necessarily the party. I mean, I vote for Republicans and I vote for Democrats.”[64]

Words and actions don’t matter, huh?

catfishjuggling: Huck is the very definition of a RINO, and all RINOs need to be expelled from the GOP for the GOP to gain any popularity. We in the teaparty patriots have discovered a new form of mathematics where reducing the number of people in a group will make the number of people in that group increase (called the “Laffer Magical Formula”).

In order to get the support from a majority of Americans, we the teaparty patriots – the only real patriots in the U.S. – must have a platform and leaders who veritably sparkle they’re so pure of ideology.

Could you list for me the people who would not fail the RINO test and would be acceptable Presidents? Also, could you explain for me why they would be acceptable over other potiential Republicans who are more RINOish?

“‘Not A Big Deal To Me”

Apparently that’s what he thought about pardoning murderers who would end up killing again.

The shear genious of The Donald and what he is ding here is he has singlehandedly opened the ” where the hell did Obama come from & how did he get here ” debate out into the open for all ” real ” Americans and also liberals to see.

Secondly he has effectively lifted the stigma unfairly attached to all Republican candidates because they, when questioned about Barack spending $2 million on hiding his past, can simply state, you’ve got me confused with Donald Trump, thats his deal.Thereby forcing the left wing bomb throwing interviewer on to the next question.

Trump is a force to be reckond with in America, the same way the Tea Party people were and still are today.So discount and disparage their worth at your own peril libs. There is plenty more shellack available at your local Home Depot.

Mike’s a nice man but we all know that location isn’t the issue.

Dumpabee needs to get on the treadmill again.

Twitless much NewsFlunky?

Advice to Mediaite and the rest of liberal media: Trying to turn the current debate between Left and Right into a question about the President’s birth certificate won’t work. The reason why Obama will lose the election next year has nothing to do with a piece of paper in Hawaii. His policies have failed in every sphere. If you keep on avoiding substantive discussion of the economy, unemployment, the border, the war in Afghanistan, the national debt and all those other issues THAT ARE NEVER MENTIONED ON MEDIAITE OR IN THE LIBERAL MEDIA IN GENERAL, you will get destroyed in next year’s election.

It happened last year, because you focused all your intellectual capital on the issues of WITCHCRAFT IN DELAWARE, and as a result you lost the most Congressional seats in the history of modern midterm elections. But you haven’t learned. You think you can ignore all the big issues, and turn the election into a referendum on trivialities. It won’t work. In fact it will lead to a disastrous defeat for Democrats.

Just sayin’….

Great points but logic has no place here.

So I guess all that crazy talk linking Obama to Kenya last month was a mistake. Wow!! That was a long time ago. Somebody must have put all that garbage in your mouth. LOL. No, I think the real truth is that Huckabee is finished pushing sales of his new book so he’s not trying anymore to make headlines with such nonsense.

He’s not a RINO because he’s honest about his switches. Now if Joe S. would just switch parties, that would be great. You know Joe Manchin? He’s a DINO. :)

I totally agree with you on Manchin. I have no idea how that guy can claim to be a Democrat. At least Lieberman has some views that make sense for caucusing with the Democrats. Or Scott Brown and Olymipa Snowe have some reason to stay with the Republicans. Manchin. Good grief.

But I also think you’re giving Trump a pass. You want to believe. He’s no Republican though. He’s an opportunist.

Huckabee is a double talking phony sleaze bag like Donald Trump. Two weeks ago he was lying saying Obama was born in Kenya now he is saying he is not questioning his birth place. Huckabee is full of it to a degree that is over his head.

@Resistance Is Futile: Huckabee never said that “Obama was born in Kenya.” It’s a l!e to claim that he did. Huckabee misspoke when he mistakenly stated that Obama grew up in Kenya, instead of saying Indonesia. Obama did grow up in Indonesia, ages 6 through 10, with his mother Ann Durham and his step-father Lolo Soetoro.

Huckabee is arguably the most electable Republican in 2012.

He has been polling quite well vs Obama nationally:

and the electoral college configuration suits his strengths very well.

Wrong link. My bad.

Here’s the correct link to the RCP’s Obama vs GOP candidates polls page:

Oh my, Huck. What would Jesus say???

oops! Hawaii official denounces ‘ludicrous’ birther claims

Not a big deal to Huckabee. Isn’t this the same Huckabee that is always spouting off about the Demo-Rats stepping all over the Constitution? Yet, somehow actually being legally qualified, an issue that goes to the core of Constitutional authority means nothing to Huckabee?
That’s another good reason for not considering him for the presidency!

This is why Huckabee should never be President. If the Constitution means so little to him, then he is as bad as the Demons we dispise. NoBama 2012! No Huckabee 2012!

Allen West 2012! A Proven Leader, Patriot, and a Real Born American with a Long Form BC!

Republican, Demon, Opportunist, or Independent, I don’t care what Trump is, what I do know is he has the knowledge and savy to get this country on it’s feet again and he will not bow down and kiss anyones butt, not like Obama, who bows and grovels before our Adversaries. No, Trump will tell the other nations to either Sh*t or get off the Pot! I would like to see Allen West run in 2012 but he says he isn’t going to. Now West is a Proven Leader, Patriot, and a Born American!

Donald Trump 2012!
