Sorry I missed this earlier.
Did you admire Huckabee, then, when he refused to answer a point blank question about whether he would jail doctors providing abortions or women seeking them? Did you admire his manliness when - instead of saying whether he would or wouldn't - he ventured to opine what terrorists would do to all doctors and all women and Tim Russert for that matter?
Oh yes, quite likeable.
Yes, I know Huckabee had to declare his candidacy far earlier than he would have liked. Heheh, the last ex-governor of Arkansas to run for President didn't throw his hat into the ring till 4 months before the Iowa Caucuses. But this time out, the field is getting more crowded by the minute ... and if one wants to snap up some campaign talent and, of course, a successul share of donation money ... one has no time to waste.
But it would have been well before throwing himself on
Meet the Press for Huckabee to have been prepared to back up his more controversial political positions ... or at the very least, to be able to duck a direct question with the minimal adroitness appropriate to even the
least of politicians, much less a candidate for President.
Bah.
