Huck's a good man, politic's a dirty business.
He never had a chance.
Darn shame too.

Huckabee had some good policies for small business and trying to help get things going for the middle class. Correct me if I'm wrong, though (and I seriously might be on this), but wasn't he talking at one time about re-writing parts of the Constitution to make it fit more with his religious beliefs?

quote:

From Wikipedia - At a Michigan primary campaign appearance on January 14, 2008, Huckabee said "I have opponents in this race who do not want to change the Constitution. But I believe it's a lot easier to change the Constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God. And that's what we need to do -- to amend the Constitution so it's in God's standards rather than try to change God's standards so it lines up with some contemporary view." The statement was in apparent reference to the fact that the United States Constitution does not use the word "God" or make mention of any religion; rather "We the People" form the sole basis of sovereign authority in the American system of government. Huckabee's comment was generally poorly received; conservative television pundit Joe Scarborough commented that while he believes "evangelicals should be able to talk politics ... some might find that statement very troubling, that we're going to change the Constitution to be in line with the Bible. And that's all I'm going to say."

The issue that most people of fatith have with Senator Obama is his party platform-especially abortion. How could anyone even think of supporting any party that does not vocally denounce abortion and partial birth abortion
As I work with at-risk high schoolers, and see the many abortions of these young students, it so saddens me. I have shared with many students, to think about this choice as they cannot go back. I do not use hell and damnation tactics as I am not God. Yet Chrisitanity is doing what is best for God's children.
Psalm 139:13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.
15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place.
Do what is best for our chilred, country, Chrisitians, and Sentor Obama-he should not be the leader of this great country if he supprts the Liberal platform
That is the main reason I am voting for John McCain Please register if you are not.
PS I am not happy with Republicans who vote pro-choice.
