And part of the reason is that the people who really run the show—the moneyed neocon circles who supported Bush’s war while they were plundering the economy dry—know how easy it is to get people riled up over issues of family and values, even as they laugh at those who do behind their backs. Remember how freaked out the neocons were at the possibilty of a Huckabee candidacy? [...] [...] But it hasn’t been enough.

Should overtake him any day now. Have read that his friendly, easy-going exterior conceals a thin-skinned hot-head. Not unlike McCain. Who, I have a sneaking, sinking sensation will outlast the others. If only because he tells the truth 50% of the time. Whereas the other Republican candidates do that about 0.3% to 0.9%.

Perhaps not wrongly, now that I think about it. That’s why I put it in quotes–not because I view him that way, but because that’s how the neocons view Huck and his ilk.

Believe it or not, there are people out there that the SBs think are over the edge. However, given how Huckabee is conducting his campaign for Preacher-in-Chief, I'm not opposed to the use of the term in his specific case. Snake handling is not, in fact, a Southern Baptist thing.

The "I pardoned a rapist murderer who went on to rape and murder again" will be tough for the electorate to get over. His son also tortured a dog. Next to that, Bush's glug-glug twins look almost chaste. If Dems can get those stories and more into the media, it'll probably be enough to keep the Fundies at home on election day.
