Default Mike Huckabee, rape, and politics

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.

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

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

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.

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.
