He may be a nutjob, but I'm not sure that's a disqualification.

He's the only Southerner in the race, and has a solid shot at both the Christian Right and gun lobby votes. I wouldn't laugh the guy off just yet.

He seems like a long shot. Not sure how much money he's raised at this point. I don't think this revelation will matter much but I suppose it could if Huckabee's prospects change.

I don't think Huckabee is going to win the Republican nomination now.

lol.

I don't think anyone considers Huckabee a possibility. He's a nutjob.

I was being tongue in cheek. Why is he a nut job?

You do all realise that Clinton himself was most certainly a rapist himself?

Do you realize what a [censored] idiot you sound like?


edit: Mindless drivel like yours is exactly why Huckabee let a convicted rapist go free. This case had nothing to do with Bill Clinton in any way yet you and idiots like you still want to turn it into a referendum on the guy.

Since he's running for President, I thought more people should know about Mike Huckabee letting a convicted rapist go free because of who his victim was related to (and the consequences): Arkansas Times article

Cliff's Notes:
Distant cousin of Bill Clinton's gets raped.
Rapist Wayne Dumond is convicted and sent to prison.
Wingnuts raise hell because a Clinton was involved, so there must be a conspiracy somewhere.
Huckabee leans on the parole board (appointed by him) to cut Dumond loose, and they do.
Dumond murders a woman 2 years later.

[/ QUOTE ]

A theory that someone was given a harsher sentence because he committed a sexual crime and was related to Clinton is barely plausible. Light treatment because the victim was related to Clinton? Asinine

[/ QUOTE ]

Take out the Clinton stuff entirely and wouldn't it still be a complete deal-breaker for a presidential campaign?

[/ QUOTE ]

It depends on the real circumstances. There arent enough facts in that article to determine how damning it is. Whitewater should have been the end of Shrillary, but she survived that. (Not that I think Huckabee had a chance without this.)


Reps are a two horse race at this point, Giuliani and Thompson.

Probably should have tried a little harder.

Take out the Clinton stuff and it never would have happened.
Huckabee didn't just decide to champion some random rapist.

I think it's more of a dealbreaker if it had not been Clinton-related (at least in a Republican primary). You'll find a large number of Republicans who still consider Bill Clinton the source of all evil.

I know that, I just mean that it DID happen, so it won't matter if Copernicus and his buddies think the Clinton Conspiracy is a load of crap or not. It is no longer necessary to the story.

The OP as I understood was about Clinton's cousin getting raped or something? I merely pointed out the irony that her uncle is a rapist too and got away with it due to his power/position (no pun intended).
