Oh, Huckabee<\/a>! You keep stepping it. Could you see this guy as our president? He would be constantly putting his foot in his mouth. BTW, when he says “this” he’s talking about push polling (Thompson and McCain supporters are getting calls lying about their candidates) <\/p>\n

I personally wish that all of this was outlawed. I think that every candidates should speak for themselves, and that every thing that involves the candidate\u2019s name or another candidate\u2019s name should be authorized and approved by that candidate, otherwise it shouldn\u2019t be spoken\u2026.
\nThe point is that candidates can\u2019t force these special interest 527 groups to stop. I wish we could.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I think that this should demonstrate that you can dress Huckabee up as a conservative but in his heart he’s a liberal who wants to limit political speech. Now, he can’t use McCain-Feingold against Thompson \ud83d\ude42
\nBut as Bryan says:<\/p>\n

But don\u2019t worry. By tomorrow he\u2019ll have signed a pledge promising to protect the First Amendment as his bff. Because he\u2019s tough. And smart. And not winging his entire frakkin campaign at all.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
