the hubby was looking at voting for huckabee ... until he took a look at the wikipedia information on him :smt103 ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huckabee

"On December 26, 2007 the conservative organization Judicial Watch announced that Mike Huckabee was named to its list of Washington’s "Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians" for 2007. They state that Huckabee, as governor, was the subject of "14 ethics complaints and a volley of questions about his integrity, ranging from his management of campaign cash to his use of a nonprofit organization to subsidize his income to his destruction of state computer files on his way out of the governor’s office." Judicial Watch further accused Huckabee of attempting to block the state ethics commission's investigations of the allegations.[137]"

Obama and Clinton are also on the watch list <g>
However, Mr. Fitton himself does not seem to be "holier than thou" himself:
>>After Klayman left Judicial Watch in the fall of 2003, the current president Tom Fitton set out to hijack the group to further his own personal interests. As alleged in the complaint, Fitton sent out false and misleading fundraising letters, misused donor money, disparaged Klayman with supporters and the media, and took other actions which increased the damage to Judicial Watch, the donors and Klayman.<<

And that is the million dollar question!! :smt023
On a serious note, I think we can find issues with ever presidential candidate. We just have to pick the lesser of the evils this go round. Sucks, but I dont think any of them are going to do us any good. They might come in and try but it takes years to fix the problems that are going on now. Just like when Bush came in, he had to fix the problems Clinton had endured on the country.

Well, it has come out that McCain made a call to his delegates and told them to throw his to Huckabee, only to prevent Romney from winning.

If this is the case, he's no better than Hillary Clinton in my eyes. He's in it to win it, no matter what the cost....

I hope not another ballot is cast for him, if this is true!!

Check out his record on the 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution:
