HUCK WAS A ONE-HIT WONDER. Soon, we'll all wonder who he was and why we cared at all about him. It's down to Mitt and McCain. Giuliani keeps dropping like a brick and Huckabee can't even reliably win the Evangelical vote against Romney.

Go Mitt! Go Mac! Either is better than the two-faced Huckster.

HUCKABEE is a two faced liar.. he had a group do push polling in IOWA to hurt Ronney now he has that same GROUP push polling WHICH IS AGAIST THE LAW! In SC against Thompson telling total lies.. Huckabee is the most scandalous dishonest man who calls himself a preacher, this election has ever seen..

Huckabee is a Wolf In Sheep's clothing, and a LIBERAL!

Good for whatever group this is that's giving Huckabee a taste of his own medicine!

After reading your story, "Anonymous anti-Huckabee fliers distributed in South Carolina" I checked out the Eagle Forum website. What a trip. I even listened to the radio broadcast "What we want in a President" by Ms. Schlafly. Based on the radio propaganda, it appears the only candidate that fits the Eagle Forum mold in Thompson. Romney is wrong on religion; Rudy is too liberal; McCain is done. I also read the flier. Good hatchet job. Sounds like the brain child of Missouri Speaker and Romney supporter Rod Jetton and Governor Matt (win at all cost) Blunt. These guys are the kings of sleaze in Missouri and bring political dirty tricks to a new low. Where's the FEC at times like this?

Another fundamentalist? God help us. If Huckabee is elected President, where on earth will people with any education, any understanding that church and science DO mix, who understand that stem cell research is NOT immoral, who know that you will NEVER rid the world of abortion no matter what you do with Roe and who have better things to worry about than what gay people are doing going to go? I

I'm reading all these comments from all the card carrying liberals from the Communist News Network "CNN." Of course, this comment probably won't be posted because it's not considered politically correct. Can't vote for Hillary or Billary Clinton because of her pro-abortion stand, socialistic national health care plan that works so well in Canada that all the Canadians come into upstate New York to get health care that have been waiting for months to see a docter. Go Huckabee! Yes, he's anti-abortion, a Christian who's not afraid to express his views. As for letting the rapist out of jail. This report was released by a typical liberal blog "pro-Billary Clinton." Actually, Bill Clinton supporters were behind the rapist release. This will be a interesting primary and election season especially in Florida with more than half the state filled with liberals New Yorkers /New Jersey people. Take I-95 North and don't come back. If you think, I'm a Southern I was born in Michigan one the hotbeds of liberalism.

There is an AP story on Comcast news which is very damaging. Many times worse than Wayne Dumond Story.

Although I think that Huckabee is a true Christian, and an excellent person, I dont want him as the president. He is too liberal fiscally. The media is building him up to tear him down in the general election. Not to shill, but if you want a candidade that can stand up to anything, and beat Hillary or Obama, vote McCain.

If Huck wins the GOP nomination then the Democrats crush the GOP in November 2008. Huck is a product of our corrupt liberal MSM press which is really sad indeed. As a life-long Republican if Huck is the nominee I will sit out the November 2008 election.

Scott - Exactly. The attacks do nothing but propel Huckabee further up in the Polls. And for those who posted that this is something only the Republican's do….Wake up and read the news! The Dem's have been attacking each other since the beginning of this campaign. Each other, Republican's and anyone else who might appear to get in their way. Or is it that you wish to remain oblivious to that fact as a means to support your own political views?

Annonymous flyers make this major news???!!! Ofcourse, if your goal is to discredit a candidate you do not support, this unimportant garbage becomes news. What about real issues, what's really important; not so if you are a yellow journalism rag.

Huckabee will win in 2008. He's the only candidate that is truly Christian and coservative on the issues that count most. History proves it.

Maybe some of these commenters need to move to Arkansas and feel some of the impact that Huckabee created in this state with his multiple tax hikes and open-ended bond issues to placate his good-old boy buddies and the fact that he campaigned to release a convicted rapist, only to have the felon rape and murder elsewhere in the country. He may have been a preacher but that doesn't give him the credentials to lead a country as diverse as the US is.

It's clear that most of you haven't heard about how Mike destroyed over 350,000 dollars worth of computers at the end of his term as Arkansas governer. What was he hiding? Why did he destroy them? Mike is a liar

Do you seriously just say a "web search" showed nothing?

You're a CNN Producer? Wow.

No surprise I guess.

Is this the guy that Chuck Norris supports? I thought Chuck suported the 10/20/life, bill in Florida. I guess he forgot,old age and all. Anyone who lets murders or violent criminals out of jail does not need to be our President.

Huckabee isn't that bad. He's just all talk with no substance, but at least he isn't an authoritarian like Guiliani. Well.. it's hard to say.. maybe he is.. can't tell cuz he doesn't say anything when he speaks.

Go Ron Paul.

I live in Alabama–deep in the heart of the Southern
Christian Culture. While there are many loving, caring Christians, the majority are fearful, intolerant, and bigoted. They easily express hatred for blacks, gays, and, to a lesser extent, Jews. Huckabee and Romney will do well here as each has a track record of intolerance. Neither man can heal the divide in this country.

I am confused about Mike Huckabee???? He states that he is a Christian and is pro-life on the abortion issue. However, he supports the death penalty. Thou shall not kill means what exactly?? Save the unborn and murder the condemned??

Hasn't served in the military… so you wouldn't vote for him? Are you kidding me? Many Presidents have not served, and not every person is cut out to serve in the military. Also, the fact that Mike is under attack is only good for him, more attention, any attention is good. You're never going to find a politician without a spot. Everyone has plenty and the fact that Mike's got a few isn't going to phase the general public. Mudslinging is expect and America knows it. Mike has a chance and the fact that everyone, including those of you who are posting here just proves that it's true, and no one can deny that.

To Walt from Belton, Tx. Hey, Bush didn't serve in the military either, but that's still dosen't excuse any of the others now does it? Besides, all Mitt has done the hole of his adult life is serve himself. Yes, even as Governor of Mass. Guilliani is still serving himself. And when Hillary
decides to actually reading stuff before making uneducated decisions, maybe then she'd be a decent prez.

I wonder what it will take with this sort of nonsense to get the police involved. Hopefully they are dusting the flyers for fingerprints right now.

I want to know what is wrong with "culture and diversity?" I think it's sad that a supposed Christian group finds those two words threatening. I am a Christian who has a personal relationship with Christ and I also believe in the separation of church and state. I don't believe in forcing my views on other people and I don't believe in other people taking away my right to practice my views. America was built on culture and diversity but it seems now that some misguided Christians are scared that their country is going to hell in a handbasket. I agree we need to keep politically correct power hungry people out of office that want to erase the orgin of Christmas by banning Merry Christmas and enforcing Happy Holidays. That a baby Jesus is offensive on the lawn of the capital is ridiculous. I also believe that we need to keep bible thumping truth twisting nit-wits out of a job in politics. Both of types of people are dangerous to this country. I think abortion is wrong but I believe in allowing a woman to make that choice. The fact that people think they're above God's freewill is ironic to me. They want a 19 year old woman who can barely afford community college with no family support to keep her fetus but they don't lose any sleep at night over the hungry baby and it's homeless mother. Some people need a reality check, maybe if they spent some time with America's scum of the streets like Jesus chilled with the hookers they would "get it."

Hasn't Mitt Romney call Huckabee a "liberal" on issues such as illegal immigration?

Kind of makes you think.
Posted By Robert Burns - New York City, New York : December 8, 2007 6:49 pm

Robert…I am not sure how much you know about Mitt Romney's background, or any of these political candidates backgrounds. Hopefully you don't pull your knowledge strictly from CNN!! Any one who thinks the news is reported without bias…What should be happening with all candidates for example.

Take a look at Mitt Romney's business career, personal life, and life as Governor of Mass…take a close, look.

Now I won't say that someone who wants Romney to win didn't created these fliers…(because we both know the democrats would love to get in the ring with Huck, most likely not them.), but Mitt Romney would never be behind this. He does not operate this way, and never has.

On the flip side, start doing a little back ground on Huckabee, and you'll notice this. He is a very nice guy, truly, but he's very Bush-esk in his poor decision making…and don't get me started on him being the "Christian candidate"…

Bottom line, people really should jump in and do the research, especially for such an important decision…before going by the media. I think many will be suprised.

I cannot believe anyone would vote republican in the first place, and i think that anyone who does is an intolerant war-monger,but besides that, what kind of message would it send if Mike Huckabee became president, a former Baptist minister. Oh and by the way, I am a member of a Southern Baptist Church. Can't you see the hypocrisy, let go of the way your parents voted and help change America for the better. Tradition alienates people and is childish.

The Huckabee supporters simply amaze me. So its ok for Huckabee supporters (TrustHuckabee.com to be exact) to push-poll anti-mormon religious bigotry material in Iowa and New Hampshire, but its not ok for someone (and who cares who it is) to distribute a flyer summarizing news articles exposing and informing Huckabee for the absolute scum that he is? Give me a break. The same group supporting Huckabee are the same goobers that supported Jimmy Carter. I also find it amazing that people rush to judgment as to who is behind the flyer. You remind me of Hillary and her "right wing conspiracy." Everyone is always saying Romney is behind it. Its laughable. You were saying he was behind the anti-mormon push-polling too. Now that TrustHuckabee.com was exposed, the story gets buried. Ask yourself why is it that the New York Times is writing favorably about Huckabee. Its simply because Huckabee will be an easy defeat in the general. Just look. There is more dirty rumors abuzz about Huckabee than all of the Republican and Democratic candidates combined. Simply amazing.

Gosh. Its fine for Huckabee supporters to do anti-mormon push-polling but its not ok for someone to expose Huckabee for the scum that he is? Amazing.

Wouldn't it be nice if Huckabee actually answered a question for once instead of making stupid jokes?

Hey Guys!- Check out the band Southern Culture On The Skids, they'll show you what southern culture is all about!

I don't see the problem. If a group wants to put out fliers to discredit a candidate they don't like, they have every right to, as long as they are not libeling someone. What's the matter, Huck? Getting a little too warm for you? Maybe you need Chuck Norris to hunt down these guys and give them a roundhouse into the next state.

I love it when Republicans start eating their own! The Democrats can just sit and watch the sharks fight it out.

Remember Bush vs McCain in 2000? Welcome to the wonderful world of GOP politics thanks to Karl Rove: who is alive and well and probably hip deep in it all.

Mike is known to be thin-skinned: watch the Christian good-will-to-all melt away as people continue to ask why he pardoned a rapist (Clinton made me do it) and why people with aids should be rounded up like lepers …

It is discusting that people who hide behind the term, "Christian" try to speak for others who believe strongly in Christ and believe in the beauty of diversity. There are numerous ways to look at life. Please don't label people one way or the other. When we do, we take away the basis of the beauty of America.

David, Mo: Read the article before you post or enlist a friend to read it to you. It was a bogus email address. It also had a phone number for someone who had not endorsed the flier. I actually kind of like it. Typical republican swiftboating.They do negativity and hate so well and it is fun to watch them do it to each other. Good practice for the general election. Lord knows they will never win on thier record so the best tactic would be to claim there has been no conservative in power and now they have one. Lots of luck. Methinks they do protest to much!!!

CNN gets all its information from search engines??? "Although the flier says it is sponsored by a group called "Lynchburg Christian Students for the Truth," a web search of that name did not return any results."

Does Southern Christian Culture mean racism, hatred and discrimmination because of race? You can keep your Republican nominees and don't stray to far from a mirror when you're wondering why this country continues in its downward spiral when it comes to values.

This is exactly why I am voting for Ron Paul, the real conservative.

My friend employed by the Obama campaign says they would love to run against Huckabee. This guy's record is a mess and when he talks, he doesn't say anything at all, but he sure does sound good saying it. I'm losing faith in the American people. Doesn't anybody care about this country anymore? If tax hike Mike is elected, we're doomed.

I sincerely wonder to myself why those who support Huckabee do so. I honestly can not figure it out. Can it be simply because of his Evangelical background? I believed that there was more integrity in the Evangelical community than that.

Even a small amount of research into Huckabee's record shows major issues for conservatives. It is alarming to me that such a large body of voters either have not done any research, or they simply over look the facts.
Either way, they are doing our country a huge disservice. It makes me so sad.

Please visit

This is a wonderful website with an abundance of information about the records of both candidates. It is an honest overview that can be trusted.

MIKE HUCKABEE=JIMMIE CARTER
(A new country bumpkin from the south, who has lots of down home appeal, but in the end will be a down right disappoinment.) Think twice Iowa!!!

Huckabee understands that not everything needs conserved and there are instances in which you need to be more progressive….

If that makes him a liberal,
than I guess I am voting for a liberal this winter/spring.

You know i think that a president huckabee would further infatuate the typical american steryotype of that in which all americans are hillbillys, so to speak.

So here's the question is it "mudslinging" if it's true.

As for the Wayne Dumond case it appears Huckabee has a little bit of an "ethical challenge" in the way he has shaded the truth lied his @ss off.

http://www.latimes.com/la-na-huckabee8dec08,0,4343390.story?coll=la-home-center

The latest push polling in all of NYC's finest gay bathhouses have Huckabee winning by a landslide.

"Anonymous anti-Huckabee fliers distributed in South Carolina"

The fliers are not quite anonymous. The Lynchburg Students for Truth (TruthonHuck@gmail.com) takes credit for flier. They even given you an email address.

Mike Huckabee is a liberal?

One thing we can be sure is that the Dems are not behind this. They would love to run against Huck (and Chuck) in the general.

Huckabee with McCain as his VP to add some foreign policy experience to the ticket. That's a recipe to beat Hillary!

If this flyer represents the worst of Huckabee, then he has my vote.

The Dumond situation is horrible, but you can't blame Huckabee for being unable to predict the future.

And sure, taxes went up during his tenure as Gov, but he also demonstrated fiscal conservatism by improving the deficit. GOPs like myself don't need to think that all taxes are sinful.

ron paul 08

Well, it's only fair that people are exposing the negative aspects of Huck's record. All the other candidates get it, and it's time that Huck gets it too. We'll see if he can fight through it the way the tougher candidates like Romney, Giuliani, and McCain have. I really doubt he can. His campaign is a house of cards, built on a weak foundation that will crumble within two months. By the way Delusional Dan, comparing Mitt Romney to Larry Craig or Mike Foley has to be the most laughable comment I've seen on any political blog ever. It was clear to many of us who watched the Speech that not only is Mitt Romney the best qualified by virtue of his experience, but he is also a man of great integrity. Please don't disrespect this good man in this vulgar way. He deserves better, and you know it. I suspect you're a Hillary or Guiliani plant. You folks are scared to death of Romney. And you should be.

I really hope Huckabee gets the nomination. That'll make an Obama administration all the more likely. With his role in getting Dumond released from prison to statements he made in 1992 about wanting to quarantine AIDS patients from the rest of society to him proclaiming himself God's chose candidate (see his recent remarks at Liberty University), there's more than enough ammo to bring him down.

And for those of you who don't believe Huckabee wanting to quarantine those with AIDS, here's the story:

http://breakingnews.nypost.com/dynamic/stories/H/HUCKABEE_AIDS?SITE=NYNYP&SECTION=HOME

Why are they wasting their time, paper and ink? I for one am most definitely not influenced by the trash one finds on the street. Most intelligent people find their reading selections in respectable places…..The warped personal opinions of a few when force fed is most replusive!

As humorous as Huckabee may be I have to be honest and say I am worried by him. In the Middle East there is this thing called the Sharia where they use the versus' of the Quran to create laws that they use to punish people, whip, and kill people with. I don’t think Huckabee is too far away from a religious law where he insists that morals (based on religion) be used to fabricate law (i.e. abortion subjects). We all need to be scared and pay attention to this comedian coming in under the wire.

Look, this may be nasty. But it really is time people learn the truth about this guy.

Thinking he is the moral wing of the party is simply fooling yourself. He is just as deceitful as other candidates. He is using his Christian background in such a way as to discredit Romney because of his faith. Not being able to say that he is Christian is a prime example. He is soft on crime, a tax hiker, big spender, illegal immigrant justifier, and a man who wanted to quarantine people with AIDS, a half-baked idea originally concocted by Lyndon LaRouche.

Ah Mike Huckabee, the ex-governor who thought Canada's parliament was housed in an Igloo. Don't believe me? Google or youtube it.

Is something wrong with our Southern Christian culture?," the flier asks

Uh yeah! This is the same culture that resulted in the Civil War when these good strong patriots wanted to secede from our country because they couldn't exploit slave labor as they wished. Now days they just serve as manipulated fools for the GOP.

Why are you giving this anonymous flier any more publicity by posting it here? It's cowardly not to sign one's name to the flier, and reprinting it here gives it more respect and credibility than it deserves.

GEAUX HUCK BABY ALL DA WAY !!

Sounds like Par for the course. I just read about Huckabee's position on people with aids being rounded up like cattle and seperated from the rest of us…..sounds very christian like

The media has lobbed Huckleberry softball questions the whole campaign. It's only fair his liberal record is coming out now. No body can deny any of the things on this flier. All they say is "Negative campaigning!" Yeah, well every other candidate has had to deal with it. Why is Huckabee exempt?

Even as a lifelong Republican and social conservative, this guy really scares me. He combines the worst traits of George Bush (poor judgment, incompetence) and Bill Clinton (that Hope, Arkansas charm and smooth-talking that covers up all the lies of his past). The degree to which Huckabee is like Clinton is frightening, actually. Hopefully Republicans will realize this before the Iowa caucus.

Hasn't Mitt Romney call Huckabee a "liberal" on issues such as illegal immigration?

Kind of makes you think.

Looks like someone has taken it upon themself to try to make Mike lose out on the bigot vote. Well, good riddance to all six of them, then.

Mike IS liberal on fiscal conservative issues. He is also weak on crime (Wayne Dumond) and wants to quarantine those with AIDS.

Don't be fooled by the Huckster. I'd rather people vote for Ron "inside job" Paul that this liar.

Given that Huckabee has now reached 39% in Iowa, there really is no way he will lose the caucuses!

Huckabee is just like Bush - a fake Christian.

It's true. Voting in Huckabee would destroy the conservative movement. Don't let the charming voice and all the jokes fool you. This guy is no Republican aside from gay marriage and abortion.

Huckabee and Romney claim all kinds of public service but neither had the guts to serve their country one day in the Armed Forces. Neither has put their life on the line for their country. They have only lived off the largesse of the American taxpayer. I, for one, do not want either on of them occupying the White House as my Commander-in-Chief. They will both acquiesce and we will all be speaking mexican or farsi in no time at all.

"Is something wrong with our Southern Christian culture?"

You're kidding, right?

OMG the Romney campaign is so desperate now !! Yes they would sink this low and lower ! Smug, holier-than-thou flip-floppers Mitt and Ann finally getting knocked down a trillion pegs. Rofl! Thankyou Gov. Huckabee for wiping off the Romneys smug smirking faces, in your very classy way!

Mitt where are you.

good for him.

Mudslinging in earnest. Disgusting.

I hope no one allows this type of campaigning to succeed. It's really disgusting.

Everything Obama promises has no past or present proof that he ever accomplished any. While Guliani and Romney have governed States/Super Cities, Obama's only project has been a neighborhood community in Chicago.

Clinton is focssing on issues that matter to for America: mortgage crisis, national security, jobs, healthcare, education, etc. Excellent. And he states the issues with confidence wearing her own skirt unlike Obama who is hiding under Oprah's skirt. Talking issues that matter together with her proven trail of experience are the reasons Hillary will be elected President of the United States. Hillary cares more about America than simply winning. Obama is so desparate that he has esorted to a talkative Talkshow host who has not given anything significant to America. Instead of reconcilling families, Oprah and her cousin Phill have encouraged spouses to split. Oprah is the reason we have many broken divorved families with unhappy children. It will be a foolish decision for anyone to vote for Obama just because he is a friend to Oprah.

Democrats will regret the next 4 years if they elect Obama to stand against Guliani or Romney. These 2 Republicans have resumes that only Clinton's and all other Democratic candidates except Obama's can withstand. Guiliani and Romney will will hit Obama with a type of experience that he will not resist.

Some Democrats simply want to see Obama beat Clinton for the wrong reasons. But let them wait for an Obama slap by Guliani or Romney. Republican know they can get back the Whitehouse if any of the 2 candidates stood against Obama because Obama has nothing to show for experience which will be the cornerstone of Republican assault. Then Democrats will be biting their fingers having first thought the next Prez would be Democrat by hook or crook after the Bush debacles.

Huckabee represents the moral wing of the Republican Party.

People like Mitt Romney, Mark Foley, and Larry Craig represent the hypocrite wing of the Republican Party.

Sounds like another candidate is getting desperate and using negative campaigning as a last resort. This is exactly why I LIKE MIKE !!
