Huckabee is the scariest presidential candidate I’ve seen since Ronald Reagan.

Like Huckabee would say, he’s not mad about being scary. Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is scary because he masks his unreasonableness with a honeyed tongue. He’s managed to get the so-called liberal media to fall in love with him. Out of boredom, more than anything else, the news mongers are keeping him afloat.

How ’bout this: what if McCain picks Huckabee as his running mate, wins office and promptly drops dead! Then, our nightmare comes true: President Huckabee.

He’s even more ignorant than George W. Bush and unabashed about it. Asked about his lack of expertise in foreign affairs, Huckabee jovially agreed with his questioner, then added: “but I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express last night.” Much hilarity. His glib, happy-go-lucky persona is winning over pundits and ink-stained wretches alike.

The Republicans running to succeed W. are uniformly worse than he was as president, if you can believe such a thing is possible. McCain is worse because there’s no principle that he won’t trim, if it’ll help him become president.
