Here’s a lousy piece of news to wake up to in the morning
Mike Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas and defeated contender for the GOP presidential nomination, is currently at the top of John McCain’s short list for a running mate. At least that’s the word from a top McCain fundraiser and longtime Republican moneyman who has spoken to McCain’s inner circle.
The article gives a couple of the “reasons” behind this brilliant pick, which amount to nothing more than feel good politics. I’m sure the amnesty crowd can hardly wait, but I’m not encouraged.
I heard a gentleman arguing on one of the local radio political discussion shows that McCain represents the traditional majority wing of the Republican Party. Which is precisely why I identify myself as a conservative and not a Republican. The Republicans, especially this year, do NOT represent me. And when you add Bob Barr into the mix, it’s beginning to look a lot like we’re going to get 4 years of hope and change. And higher taxes, socialist medicine, gun control, and inept foreign policy….
…sigh.
