Huck doesn't have my vote...yet...but may before this is all over. I just wanted to say that he showed compassion and class today with his remarks about giving Hillary a break. Candidates get on the campaign trail and get exhausted and hasty in their remarks toward one another and his statement was genuine and nice. He has not let the pressure of the race make him forget how to be a decent human being.

Be careful Christians!

If you are going to vote for Huckabee because of his religious affiliations I have a warning for you:

His religious proclamations and glittering generalities are just as much a show as his claim to be a conservative.

Take it from someone who has seen his leadership. (Arkansas native here)

You will not be happy with what you get in the Huckster. He will not represent Christians or our country well.

Tom Smalley from Iowa: Please rejoin the remedial English class. I had to read your post out loud to get your point. If you wrote to the White House in the same manner that you wrote your post above, they probably thought you were 4 years old and tossed your letter.

Holy sh!t....please tell me not all Iowan's are like this.

Good moment from what I believe as two good natured guys. .......I would vote for both of them over someone as bitter and evil as hillary.....

Be carefull Huckabee, that is one EVIL EVIL VAMPIRE you're shaking your hand with. Rudy will drink your blood.

Come to think of it, can we ship Giuliani to some remote castle in Romania so we don't have to see him ever again. He'll feel right at home.

Weak Weak Weak

She is crying not because she has emotions, but because she lost in Iowa. If you cant take one defeat, that how will you stand up to issues in Iraq, North Korea, Iran etc. You are a house wife and

Is there anybody running that is not claiming to be god's choice.Let's leave god out of this. I don't think god cheers for football teams or politicos and for god's
sake with 5 billion people in this world how long will it take to get to listen to your
prayer – - let alone how to perform the miracle you pray for? Get a life and leave god's name out of this. Shrub says I will kill your in the name of god – - -
Ilsamic radical says I will kill you back in the name of allah. Where doesn this madness end?

Give me a break bill clinton,A fairy tale ?,seems Hillary was sobing about the fact your time in the white house was the worst ,and the damage done and scandels that she is finaly seeing the american people REJECT YOU as a first man in the white house? She thought she could get in and some how RIGHT a WRONG for how your 8 year term and what it stacked up to be ? Or what it didn't stack up to be? the DISGRACE you brought to the Whitehouse, From the day you got off the plane in Iowa her numbers have gone done every day. Where were you when I and many others wrote the White house when Oklahoma government was not Playing Fair to the citizens of that state ? Or should I say who else was in the oval office with you when we Pleaded for help? Look pal every one thinks Hillary needs to say she is sorry for this so call War vote? Have you Every really sat in front of the American People and say YOU ARE sorry for the DISGRACE you brought to the OFFICE? One thing also you should be honest and tell every body you are greatfull to the YEARS before you took OFFICE for the Great Economy you benifited for those years? Be a Man billy, Seems your Wife "IS" not ready to be President on day 1 ? Why all the staff change today ,thought she is ready? and now she really is for change and is changing allready and she has not won one yet? I wonder she may have got the office if she left you? If a person puts up what you did to her ? what will she herself put up with in office?

Obama is one of the few candidates that is a non-secular Christian and not in a secret society. He is Americas' best hope to continue a path that its forefathers founded. It has been winning a battle that Europe lost long ago to secular religious institutions which breed disenfranchised false, idol images and self worship or no worship at all with hypocritical boxed mentalities thinking in circles.

Hillary has worn some very peculiar pendants on her lapel that may make one question if she is in the secret society orders. maybe it should be investigated to see if she is in a secret society as Bill is suspected by many to be in Freemasons as well. and it is no secret the Bushs' are generational Skulls & Bone subgroups of FreeMasons which include the upper level controlling subgroup of demon worshipping spirit peddlars.

God bless America when Obama wins, God help the world if Hillary or the Republicans win and blocks the leading nation that is light for a better world socially and economically.

AJ, Iowa City, IA –

You forgot your Mitt – he can spend big money to lie.

He loss big in IA and he will loose in NH again today.

I am amazed at how often the term "Christian Right Wing" is declared and denounced! If, as some say, Hillary invented the "Christian Right Wing Conspiracy Theory" to help her husband win his elections, it is still obviously being used to turn up distrust of evangelical Christians in general and to actually question their right to speak out or in any form participate in the "Great American Experiment....i.e. democracy and its elections!"
You know, it is quite interesting how the term "liberal" has become attached to those who are to the "left" in the political arena. I say, interesting because the word "liberal" in its core meaning, is not too often found in the comments of those who claim to own it.
Dictionaries say that "liberal" means "free from prejudice or bigotry, tolerant": open-minded.", "marked by generosity:openhanded, broad-minded."
As I read all the comments that preceded my own, I noticed concern (rightly so) that Barak Obama not be wrongly considered to be a Muslim when in fact he is a Christian, that Romney's mormonism should not be factor, but somehow there is this huge departure from bigotry when it comes to evangelical Christians! As if we have no right to express our views when they differ from yours, and that we have "no brains" (to you, Mary) if we do not believe as you do re. the origins of the Universe (even evolutionists often disagree and later bring forth different theories on this subject!), and you also say we are an arrogant and blindly ignorant mob!
I think, Mary, you probably call yourself a "liberal." Wow, with such prejudice, bigotry and intolerance, how can you use that word for yourself!
Fortunately I do have friends (self-proclaimed of the "liberal left") who are not bigoted and intolerant. But that seems to be more the exception these days.
If your views are to left, that is your privilege as an American. And if my views are to the right, that is also my privilege as an American.

And I would love to have a cup of coffee from any future first lady, Hucabee's wife, Obama's wife, or even Hillary's husband! Especially if it is Dunkin Donuts! My favorite!

Let's all give one another the chance to be American, to hold to and express our own views while at the same time upholding the right of others to hold and express differing views! Let's enjoy participating in this great American adventure of electing a new President! I'm not sure yet for whom I'll vote in the Primaries or in the General Election. Yeah...still undecided! Sorry, Mary, but I do have an excellent brain and it is working very well!
P.S. to Majicatt Just remember that a uterus and what is in it are not synonomous; during an abortion, your uterus remains intact (hopefully). What is in it, does not.

MY VOTING ORDER:

1) MIKE HUCKABEE
2) JOHN MCCAIN
3) FRED T
4) RUDY G
5) MIKE RICHARDSON
6) JOHN EDWARDS
7) HILLARY CLINTON
ONE POTATO, TWO POTATO, THREE POTATO, FOUR for BARACK O, RON PAUL or MITT R

Ping and Pong meet each other...lol neither will win, Romney will win.

Go Mitt!

Uh Oh! Looks like someone doesn't understand the theory of evolution.

Not only is evolution a theory, it's also a fact. There is nothing to "buy". Facts are the world's data. The worlds data (i.e. fossil record) show the changes that occur in populations of living organisms over time. The fossil record shows that Humans evolved from ape-like ancestors that existed around 7 million years ago in the late Miocene epoch. Ape-like....get it? Not monkeys that you see in a zoo today.

The theory of evolution is a way of explaining the facts in front of us. Most people don't understand that a scientific theory is not an unsubstantiated guess or hunch. A scientific theory is a systematic and formalized expression of all previous observations, and is predictive, logical, and testable. Facts do not go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's, but apples did not suspend themselves in mid-air, pending the outcome.

Please educate yourself.

BUD, YOU ARE WRONG

YOU PAY 23% SALES TAX, B UT YOU GET 100% OF YOUR PAY CHECK AND DO NOT HAVE TO PAY 33% FEDERAL WITHHOLDING .....LOOK LIKE YOU SAVE ABOUT 10%............................

GO HUCKABEE

SCOTT FROM MAINE,
THANKS FOR YOUR POST
I'M WITH YOU 100%

MIKE HUCKABEES HEART IS FOR THIS COUNTRY

AMERICA PLEASE WAKE UP.....PLEASE

GOD BLESS AMERICA

It's amazing how Huckabee's campaign style has become so much more sedate–and intellectual in New Hampshire. Mabye he is trying to be more of a "yankee" for the caucus there.

Clearly, he is not the same "glory of Jesus, jazz musician" we saw playing to the farmers in Iowa. So–who is Huckabee?

Meanwhile–John Edwards, passionate, still on message–unwavering courage is nipping at the heals of the alledged top dogs.

John Edwards 2008

If you want to know how Obama is on the issues. Why would someone want to review a spun, polished, overly edited site run by political spinners? Do your own research. Look at his voting record. He has voted with the Republican party on some appalling items. (Sorry Republicans.) I'm a 20 year Democrat and would vote for all of the Republicans (except 1, again I apologize to the Republicans) before I would vote for Obama. Dems go ahead and scream at me. I know it's a sin to have an abortion but when did it become the same for Democrat not to support Obama.

If you are willing to believe everything negative that you read regarding Huckabee you must be willing to believe anything. You can find much more disturbing allegations about Hillary and her corrupt husband than these silly "facts". (Do you really want to look at the list of criminals the Clinton's pardoned?!) The point is that whoever you are biased towards you will give the benefit of the doubt, or at least look the other way. Whoever you are biased against you will assume is guilty of any "news" story accusing them.
I know it is hard not to let you personal feelings determine who you vote for but I am trying to not get caught up in the hype and do as much research as I can. I am a Christian (not a Baptist) and I like Huckabee because he seems like a genuine person. I know that he will be demonized by people because he is so open about his faith. But I'm not going to let me impulse to defend him for that reason cloud my judgement. I am also looking at Ron Paul.

I would rather vote for Roscoe P. Coltrane for President than Huckabee. They are both small town, simple minded, crooked, bumbling fools, but at least Coltrane never pretended he was anything else. Plus he has Flash.

If you would go to Obama's website under issues, you would see that he has a very large array of specific initiatives to answer the question of "how" he is going to change government.

If you simply watch the news clips, obviously you are going to get the impression that he is just a fired up speaker. Educate yourselves before buying into the hype – for or against a candidate.

While many have commented on this already – there cannot be enough outrage expressed over "disservice"'s bigoted, childish, fearmongering comments above.

Obama is not Muslim. Even if he were, being a Muslim does not mean one is a terrorist or that one seeks to impose his / her worldview on others.

Also, if having a certain name means something, perhaps we should arrest Frank Bundy, the guy working accounts receivable for General Motors. He might be a mass murderer!!!!! Run away! Run away!

Mary, I can tell by your comments that you feel that being an atheist makes you superior. I guess you are buying the evolution theory too. Tell me, if YOU evolved from monkeys happened to monkeys still in the jungles and zoos. I guess they weren't as superior as you; or maybe you just bought an extra large can of neet and had your tail surgically removed.

other than here (and on TV) – I have yet to meet anyone who is supporting Hillary for president (wheew....I guess you can't fool all the people all of the time)

"Would anyone like the future First Lady to pour them coffee?," Huckabee asked them.

The article never mentioned that Bill Clinton was there.

1. I'm pro-Giuliani, but it boggles the mind to see how Barack is being unchecked–Bill Clinton is right. Here's another question someone should ask the good Senator: "What exactly have you changed in your public service career?" Probably absolutely nothing. The whole "change" candidate thing is a farce. And like Bill Clinton said, why unchallenged on Iraq? Who cares what Obama would've/could've voted on without the benefit of any intelligence information! What did he base his "decision" on? I could go on, but this is about Rudy.....

2. I wish Rudy were a little more energetic/charismatic on the stump. But I'm guessing his staying on a narrow message and emphasizing larger states (I guess the "50 state strategy" means general election?) in the primaries is part of a reasoned out plan, so we'll see. A month (until Super Tuesday) is a lifetime in politics, and Rudy's got a lot of money in the bank!

Fair tax, biggest tax increase on the lower and middle class. You pay 24 % more for gas, milk, car, everything. It would kill the ecomomy lead to further housing slide as the mortgage deduction is gone.. Huck wants to bring his ethics of destroying government owned hard drives, getting money for speeches while gov., trying to steal furniture from mansion and when that doesn't work he sets up a gift registry. Lies about having a theology degree goes after Mormons and Catholics. This guy will be killed in a general election if the press ever went out and showed all his violations. Pressures the parole board to release a violent rapist against the victim's wishes and then the guy goes on to rape and murder.

I agree with the comments above about Obama' s lack of experience. He's a voice of hope and change, but he doesn't have the connections or the know-how to get it done. I've also had enough of the right wing Christians and their values voting. The above, and the fact that I refuse to vote for anyone who think they can tell me what to do with my uterus, are why I'm voting for Hillary Clinton.

Gary, Detroit, Mich.

"...rottin"? Do you mean rotten? "...and woman vote"? Do you mean, "and women vote" or do you mean, "and a woman votes"? Not all Christians support Huckabee, I for one support Paul. But, if you're going to talk down to people attempting to show your intellect, please do so correctly.

Is Hillary still crying?

Scarey options, they are. McCain is the best in class for the GOP choices.

I never knew the only requirement for being President of the United States was the ability to give a good speech. How shocking. Can you remember your high school speech teacher? Give 'em a call and tell them to run for President! Hurry, there's an opening!

Come on, America....I would hope you're more educated than this...how sad.

Huckabee '08!

1. FairTax
2. Commitment to fixing the mess we made in Iraq
3. Ready to secure the borders to allow orderly immigration
4. Will sign a right-to-life constitutional ammendment into law as soon as possible, including respecting unborn children and the elderly.
5. Supports the veteran's bill of rights. THIS IS BIG, GUYS!
6. Recognizes that the no child left behind act needs to be revamped to allow for state control and increase funding for arts in education.
7. Realizes that we need to start being pro-active in our healthcare system.
8. Ready on day one to defend the sanctity of marriage.
9. Has a comprehensive plan for energy independance in 10 YEARS!!
10. Will support 2nd amendment rights.
11. VERTICAL POLITICS! We need to unite this country as ONE NATION UNDER GOD – and this is the man to do it.

Pay attention, folks, and do your research before you vote for any other candidates. Go to mikehuckabee.com and learn the truth.

When exactly did Obama get a free ride? For the last 6 months he was the candidate behind Hillary, he's been accused (wrongly) of being a muslim as if that itself were a crime, he's been called inexperienced, despite the fact that he has years of experience in the Senate, in the Illinois legislature, as a political organizer, as an attorney, law professor, and head of the Harvard Law Review, (compared with "Wife of the President/candidate" for most of Clinton's professional life.)

I didn't know that the only requirement for being President of the United States was the ability to deliver a "passionate, stirring speech." I'm going to hope that people in the United States are a bit more educated than voting for someone just for that reason...

Team Hukabee take note :

1. The earth is not flat. It is round.
2. The earth is not the center of the universe. It revolves around the sun along with
the other planets in the solar system. Not vice-versa.
3. The earth is more than 6,000 years old.
4. The days of leper colonies and witch burning are long gone. Prohibition is a
thing of the past and woman vote. They don't sign papers that say they will
" graciously submit ".
5. Bible thumpers like Huckabee can return under the rottin log from where they
came.

To the poster above: "Giving Obama a free ride is doing a disservice to the country"

Mate, you're the reason why so many people in the rest of the English-speaking world think Americans are so dumb and everyone else just plain hates you.

The scary part is that you can appear so ill-informed whilst adhering to the rules of English grammar. What kind of reading have you done and how do you support your arguments? Barack Obama is Church of Christ isn't he? Is it just the name that bothers you? My wife's maiden name is Hussein so does that make her a Muslim? I scarcely believe that you seriously believe what you've written here. In Australia we call that codswallop (look it up).

Huckabee truly scares me. Only Hillary is as obvious in her two-minded answers to every question. Huck says "no, religion shouldn't be an issue in a political campaign" and then he runs ads as a Christian Leader and unabashedly imposes an obvious white cross in another. It would be fine if he acknowledged the truth but this so-called preacher denies the religious messages openly. That is double-mindedness at it's worst. Then he calls Romney dishonest. Why can't people see what is so clear? I don't think I every truly appreciated the arrogance and blind ignorance of the evangelical mob. It's becoming pretty clear now. Any group who truly believes that the world was created in seven days and dinosaurs roamed only 3 thousand years ago cannot be understood by people who actually have brains.

Giuliani with Huckabee as VP in a race with Obama with Edwards as VP...
Hmm – who will win then !?

New breed of Republicans....don't really want the Christian Right wing running the country (anymore) – we need a moderate....one that embraces the policy the MAJORITY of the country want (social liberal and fiscal conservative...)

By my count....there is ONLY ONE candidate with credentials like that...Giuliani

(don't take marital or child rearing advice from him...and you will be fine)

Fred Thompson is laughing at all of them right now....this state will not shape the election, South Carolina will. NH is just media hype.

Obama makes stands in stump speeches...the media just glazes over them

Go on his website click Issues, or Watch Videos....
I watched a rally in NH yesterday where he rallied off specifics on education

BTW, Why is education a virtual NON-ISSUE this election

I think it should be THE issue

Huckabee doesn't have anything to offer us but a cup of coffee and a Sunday morning sermon.

Look at the image for this article:

Huckabee: "Giuliani, my friend, you're the devil"
Giuliani: "Mike, I'll see you in hell! Arrrr!!"

Huck, I am a registered Republican and have voted Republican all my life. But if you are the nominee, I will vote Democrat in a heart beat just to make a statement based on my view about your sliminess. Might sound a little un-democratic, but I don't see why I should reward you for being the sleeze that you are, even though you're a Republican. Your innocent demeanor may mask your filth, but many can see through it, and I think you ought to take a long, hard look at the subliminal religious intolerance messages you're saying, versus what you preach.

Congrats to Mike Huckabee for acting like a presidential – christian candidate Sunday night on the CNN New Hampshire Debate. "What does it profit us, if we gain the whole world and loose our soul"?

Is anyone ever going to ask any of these candidates exactly how they expect to 'change Washington'? It's easy to talk about, but how? We're electing a president, not a king/queen/dictator. This leader will need the cooperation of the Congress and that vast bureaucracy that actually runs Washington behind the scenes. It's not in any of their interests to change anything. So, how? Making pretty speeches? "Bringing the people together"?—whatever that means. No, we're being sold an illusion, a lie, and we should know better.

Although I dont agree with the comment previously mentioned regarding Obamas religion or middle name. I can not disagree with the argument that most voters you ask don't know his stance on important issues. I dont see a flawless candidate on either side of this election, but I think to vote for one merely because Oprah says so or Chuck Norris says so would be one of the worst things the people of this country could do. Voting is a right, and in order to keep that right, I believe people should research their own candidates. Mainstream media is hurting this election, on both sides of the aisle. It's time for people to stop following the masses and start making educated choices. Who that is in 08', I'm still not sure

Romney 2008!

Obama is not a Muslim. Never has been. You must be on the payroll for the Republican lie at every cost with hate, fear and racism as your mantra Machine". Disgusting.

Barack Obama isn't a Muslim. He's United Church of Christ – just as Christian as Mike Huckabee. Only difference is that Christians aren't the only people supporting him, whereas Huckabee hasn't realized Americans aren't all evangelical baptists.

To Bob in Chicago:
I'd rather vote for someone who is using thier own money to get elected, rather than someone who used taxpayer money on his girlfriend. Who cares how much of his own money Romney has spent on his campaign? He can do what he wants with it. And if he was really running a negative campaign, he's got as much dirty laundry on the other candidates that they've been agianst him. Besides, they're all crooks. That's why they like politics!

Ralph Wiggiam '08 Pick a winner!

keep dreaming Huckster!

To the commentor below: Your words are hypocrisy in its ugliest form. Are you a citizen holding media accountable? If so then why are you talking about the horror of Obama's middle name? How is that an informed perspective?

Obama's middle name can only be an asset. If the world sees us elect a man committed to listening, demanding change, inspiring action amongst the apathetic, a man of multiple racial origins with a middle eastern name, that is a bold stance against fear. That builds a bridge.

The only way forward is for humanity to come together.

Romney '08 !!!!!

Here's why:

McCain – too old (71 currently)

Rudy – There is no US outside of Florida and New York City

Huckabee – can preach (what ever that means) and can pump gas, and thats about it.

Frick and Frack I wonder which McCain is going to choose as his VP..

Will someone like Chuck Norris to pour coffee in their hands?

Obama isn't a Muslim (a quick visit to Snopes can clear that up for you), and furthermore, Muslim doesn't equal terrorist the way you're trying to imply. Your racism and fearmongering are the true disservice to our country.

ATTENTION New Hampshire voters!

Huckabee and Gulianni voters should vote McCain to help get Romney out of the race.

Nobody wants someone in the race that is going to cast negative ads like Romney is doing. Bush did it in 2000 and 2004 and he definitely wasn't the best candidate and look at the mess we are in now!

Romney will not sit well in the General Election. He is too pro-corporate America and a lot of Americans won't like the idea that he used so much of his own money to finance his campaign. Romney is the Republicans weakest candidate at winning in November against Clinton or Obama.

So, Rudy goes over to say Hello and Huck sees an opportunity to grandstand?

No class, Huck! This is one of the reasons you won't win.

"Would anyone like the future First Lady to pour them coffee?," Huckabee asked them.

Was Michelle Obama in the room?

Hillary, please stop crying. It makes me sad.

Hillary, please stop crying. It makes you look very weak.

Even though the media refuses to do their job and report FACTS so educated voters make their decision instead of being biased and suppoting ONE candidate. WE THE VOTERS WILL NOT STOP EDUCATING WHERE MEDIA FAILS MISERIBLY by Giving Obama a free ride and doing a disservice to the country. It really is about Obama's message. He can't point to a record of accomplishment so he talks about bringing people together and giving people hope. The media has forgotten their job! They are responsible to inform voters of the differences between candidates, not to endorse or support just ONE! As they have with obamaboy!
**CNN last night Lou Dobbs said they polled the young voters supporting obama (which is how he is winning the recent caucuses) NOT ONE COULD SAY WHERE HE STOOD ON ANY ISSUE?? With the country at odds with so many foreign countries, it is horrifying to think of Barrack “Hussein" Obama (Muslim) running our country. You think we are in trouble with bush/Chaney!
ROCHESTER, New Hampshire (CNN) – A group of about a dozen anti-abortion protestors interrupted one of Barack Obama's New Hampshire rallies Monday night.The group shouted in unison, "Abortion is abomination," forcing Obama to pause in the middle of his speech. When the noise erupted, Obama first paused and looked up into the balcony where they were standing. They were escorted out by police.Before leaving the room, one protestor yelled, "True change is ending abortion!" Change has been a major theme of Obama's campaign.

Neither one has a chance.

What? No fist fight? No childish name calling? I thought politics was a blood sport.

"Would anyone like the future First Lady to pour them coffee?," Huckabee asked them.

The article never mentioned that Michelle Obama was there.
