Look out, Huck, Ron Paul's people are gonna be furious

OK, Disciples of Paul, here's the chance you've been waiting for to get Mike Huckabee, the only remaining contender between your guy, Rep. Ron Paul, and the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, that nobody senator from Arizona, John McCain.

Do you know what Huckabee wrote on Tuesday? You won't believe it. Seriously.

Because he needs the publicity and doesn't have the money to buy much advertising to convince the rapidly growing number of Republicans who see the former Arkansas governor as a lingering nuisance who can't take a hint that his presidential hopes are over, smoked, done, dashed, cooked, fried, kaput, finished, completed and hopeless, Huckabee has challenged McCain to a debate. Hey, it only cost a stamp.

Huckabee's letter says: "I believe a Lincoln-Douglas debate so that voters can better understand our views on critical issues such as health care, education, energy independence, terrorism and national security is just what we need."

Of course, the Lincoln-Douglas debates occurred in....

a U.S. Senate race. There were seven of them, each three hours long. (That was in the 1850s before commercials for bathroom breaks.) And, also, the Republican lost that race.

But nevermind, Huckabee wants the spectacle of a debate before next Tuesday's March 4 primaries, when his campaign hopes could become absolute cinders. He'd also like your online signature on the letter for publicity.

But here's the real outrage that will rock the Internet in the next few hours. After paying the now-required tribute to Sen. McCain as "an American hero," Huckabee writes:

"Now that the race for the Republican nomination is down to just the two of us, I believe this is the time for a real discussion about our vision for the future of this great country."

The two of us? As in 2? One more than one and one less than three? Huckabee has no idea what he is in for, dissing the party's other remaining candidate. Just watch the comments section below for a taste. He's completely disregarded the existence of the 10-term libertarian-like congressman from Texas. Who may not have a realistic chance of beating McCain either, but don't tell that to members of the Ron Paul Revolution.

Paul, by the way, has consistently raised more campaign donations than Huckabee for the last year -- five times Huckabee's total in the third quarter of 2007 alone and more than any other Republican last quarter, nearly $20 million.

Paul has been spending a good deal of time recently in his home 14th District where, like Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich, he's facing a serious party primary challenge next Tuesday because he's been spending a lot of time not in his home 14th District.

But that doesn't mean Paul's countless thousands of fervent followers are tied up. Huckabee doesn't know the meaning of evangelical until he runs into Paul proselytizers. First, they will spread word of this Huckabee outrage within their chatrooms, meet-up groups, phone chains and message boards.

They will start leaving hundreds, then thousands of comments on blogs like this. They will, of course, politely remember that this blog has resisted the mainstream media ignorance and written often about their man. So they will direct their displeasure at the Huckmeister.

If the Paulunteers can discover Huckabee's e-mail, he'll get an electronic earful. And once they find Huckabee's campaign schedule on his website and realize that the former governor is also in Texas these days, they will march on Huckabee's campaign events as they did Rudy Giuliani's.

And remember what happened to Giuliani's candidacy.

Please follow this link and tell Dr Paul you are going to write in your vote in November...I did already. http://www.ronpaul2008.com/contact/form

[NoTimeForTheHuckster]

Bah! Huck is a worthless piece of slime. Not even worth bashing.

[Valeria]

I say lets watch the comedy show. See how close they come to being like Clinton and Obama. Maybe the 4 of them ought to start some new kind of party. Let Dr. Paul save face and not be seen with the like of them.

Now for some other news:
McCain got into trouble in our state (Oklahoma) and it is being said that our atty general will be bringing him up on charges. He broke the law here and faces stiff fines and a possible 5 years in prison. We will see what happens but this is not public knowledge yet.

[Ted D!!]

GO RON PAUL!!! In my eyes he's the only one left that Republicans should like... I don't know how everyone likes McCain... He's horrible! Dr. Paul got's my Vote!!!

[Greg Topper]

Hay mr. MacCain and mr.Huckabee your both running for president you both want to run this great nation.You mr. MacCain aspire to be commander and chief. You mr Huckabee clam the power of miracles.
Yet neater of you have the courage to confront Dr.Ron Paul. I for one, want a strong leader. Not a man that would be party to the cowardly conduct you two are practicing. I want a leader that has the courage to confront hardship and overcome.Ron Paul has the courage and will overcome.

[victor kersey]

Huckabee doesnt want Ron Paul in the debate. Paul would make him out to be the fool he is. Huckabee and McCain to are clueless about the economic dangers that face this country.

[wallace]

If Ron Paul is so popular, then the primaries don't matter, right? The mainstream media doesn't matter, right? He'll run in the fall and smoke everyone, right? Because you know better, right?

You're all delusional. I love it. It's the American way. But admit the fact that your hero isn't nearly as popular as you wish him to be.

I do hope he wins, though. Then the rest of the world can laugh at us and actually have good reason to do so.

Cuckoo. Cuckoo. Cuckoo.

[bleep]

Can you imagine a one-to-one debate between RP and McCain? Remember when Paul ask McCain the economy question, when he answered like the Teen South Carolina contestant? (YouTube John McCain and Miss Teen USA South Carolina). Imagine an hour of that? I think HBO should PPV it.

There is no free lunch Huckster, you want an hour of free TV?, invite RP to a one-to-one. Just remember that you are not going to be able to plagiarize Paul ideas and sound like you even understand the economy this time. Also, make sure you hire Romney's whisper to give you the answers and don't look like a total idiot on national TV.

Mr. Malcolm, this article was pretty funny. Keep it up, and we'll keep posting and boosting your blog so you can pretend you have lots of viewer and charge your advertisers more money, even though we will never buy anything from them anyways.

[Doug Stewart]

I've been supporting Dr. Ron Paul because he's the Republican candidate with, by far, the best value system. However, I'm a member of the Constitution Party and they are in the nomination process at this very moment. When they have a candidate, that's who I will be supporting.

[jstme]

This revolution will not be televised. We are growing in numbers and in force. We have done very well without the MSM.

There's nothing to debate. Ron Paul does not need to share a stage with Huckabee and McCain. Both are nothing but political bobble heads. Neither has a chance of winning the presidential nomination. Ron Paul exposes the truth of what ails this country and The Constitution is the solution.

[evan egrin]

Dr. Paul will get my vote even if I have to write his name in.

[Flo]

ALL RON PAUL SUPPORTERS LOOK FOR "SOS" THINGS ARE WORSE THAN WE THOUGHT

[James]

Well said but Ron Paul is In It To Win It and help the country get out of this mess!

It is the Economy, Sovereignty and Freedom, Stupid! deal with it!

[jaa1169]

Wallace,
I doubt that the rest of the world will laugh at us. Check this out...

[DrD]

For Greg...regarding Obama sticking it to the CFR, don't you know that he is 'CFR'? The CFR funds promotes candidates in both parties, i.e., Clinton (Tri-Lateral Commission); Obama (CFR); McCain (CFR); Huckabee (CFR). Huckabee's Advisor on Foreign Affairs is the current President of the CFR.

So I wouldn't be misled by charisma. The media creates that for all America. They can make Count Dracula into an instant pop star. I'm only surprised they haven't gotten Gorbechav convinced to run because you would see one piece of spin...and likely he'd make it into office!

[Andy White]

Always a good read from Malcolm. I liked how you referred to Ron Paul as libertarian-like. Ron Paul like libertarians in many ways, but is a Republican. He is the reason I call myself a Republican.

(Glad you enjoyed it and welcome back. Thanks for reading.)

[Susan]

Better to be a Ron Paul evangelist than one of the millions of zombie sheeple in this country who seem perfectly content for Hillary to take another big chunk out of our paychecks to fund her Hillarycare and for McCain to bomb Iran and stay in Iraq for 100 years.

[David, Oregon City]

The GOP and McCain have risen to the level of their incompetence!

[hukerbeeee]

If Huckabee were serious about this going to a brokered convention then he would work to get Paul into 2nd place above McCain to prevent McCain from getting additional delegates. That's not happening. A brokered convention isn't happening. Huckabee is just doing his job for the GOP and blocking Paul from getting votes and media attention until McCain gets the required number of delegates for the media to claim it's officially in the bag.

oh.. and Andrew.. Tominellay has an interesting comment above. Please follow up on it. Someone in the media needs to write about that.

[blakmira]

I believe the "Job Position Available" ad for President of the United States said:

"Wanted: Good Puppet for the Government and the Federal Reserve. Must be a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, be willing to pander and lie continuously, support the Patriot Act, have average or below-average IQ, and be pro-war."

Well, Ron Paul applied anyway. And dammit, he's still running!

[Jim Stewart]

Rather than bother Huckabee, we should be pointing to similar errors & omissions of the MSM. I encourage others to search for and demand corrections rather than just complaining. Here [less links, but the first is in the link on my name] is my still unacknowledged email to the news desks at The Times [of London]:

From: James Stewart [mailto:stewart_jim@hotmail.com]
Sent: Monday, 25 February 2008 9:59 PM
To: 'foreign.news@thetimes.co.uk'; 'newsdesk@sunday-times.co.uk'
Subject: Please correct Sarah Baxter's & Tim Reid's errors
Importance: High

Dear Sirs

The reputation of The Times is at risk when two of it’s reporters, within two days, make false statements on the same important topic: candidates for the US presidency.

Sarah Baxter's error here is in 'John McCain’s denials start to unravel in tale of the blonde lobbyist' [Feb 24].After reading it online, I attempted to add this comment:
The statement "If McCain’s campaign collapses, the Republicans will be stuck without a presidential candidate (not counting Mike Huckabee, the former pastor, who is still around but has lost his claim to be a serious contender)" is false.
Ron Paul is also a Republican candidate. See: http://www.ronpaul2008.com/
Sarah Baxter's error may be honest, as the truth has been suppressed in the US media. She should correct it promptly and prominently and learn not to trust the US media.

In ‘John McCain rejects allegations of an affair with lobbyist in first run for President’ [February 22] here, Tim Reid wrote: “Mike Huckabee, the former Arkansas Governor who is Mr McCain’s remaining rival for the Republican nomination,”. This is equally false and misleading. It is doubly so as Tim was in Austin, Texas, where he did not need to rely on the US media. In fact given Texas coverage such as this, Tim appears to be less competent than we expect from your foreign correspondents.

Please ensure that the corrections to both these errors are corrected promptly and prominently in the relevant editions of the Times. Also please notify me when each is published.

Thank you

Yours faithfully

Jim Stewart

[Steve]

Huckleberry: pathological liar, serial tax increaser
McInsane: the Manchurian candidate

Dr. Paul is wise to avoid being near either of those two neo-con-artists. He will win the Republican nomination because his supporters are dedicated to becoming delegates. McCain will not have enough legally bound delegates (1,191) to win the nomination.

[GatorVol]

Thanks, Andrew. I think you are more than fair, and your articles are entertaining as well as informative.

The things I like most about Ron Paul are his steadfast positions on:
Upholding our Constitution
Protecting our rights and human rights
Reducing the size of the Federal Government
Changing economic policies that really don't work anymore
Not trying to police the world
Ending this war that we had no business getting into.

Both Huck and McCain publically support the Bush Administration policies, and we really don't need 4 more years of that.

Here's a Huckabee quote:
http://thinkprogress.org/2008/01/25/huckabee-easter-wmd
We owe Bush our thanks that he had the courage to recognize there was a POTENTIAL of WMD and rather than wait until we had another attack he went and made sure it wasn't going to happen from Saddam Hussein
“Iraq’s WMD Were Hidden Like ‘Easter Eggs’ And Then Moved To Jordan”

And McCain WAS fervently against torture, including waterboarding, until it came time to vote, but then he votes AGAINST a bill specifically prohibiting these kinds of torture. That sounds like a "company" man to me, putting loyalty to these misguided Bush policymakers above his own moral beliefs.

I am amazed that either of them have gotten this far in the primaries. Don't people realize what these men stand for?

I will cast my vote for Ron Paul, at the very least I can say I was true to myself and my beliefs. The Ron Paul rEVOLution will keep growing, long after this election is history.

[Tim]

I agree with alot that Ron Paul has to say about getting back to what the constitution says,and having a gold standard that backs our dollar....problem is, not many americans do. That doesn't mean that our voices shouldn't be heard though, and I would like to see him in all the debates. Ron Paul brings up issues that should be talked about. Now, I don't believe that the way to go about getting our voices heard is by attacking the only person at this point thats even got a prayer against McCain, and I don't think it's time to turn our anger on Huckabee. He's standing for the Fair Tax that will eliminate the income tax amongst so many other unconstitutional taxes. So what if Huckabee only named McCain, that's who he wants to debate, the front runner. It makes sense! So, why don't we focus our energy on the one we should really be trying to take down, McCain.

[Tim]

Did you know that the Value Voter's has published a invitation to McCain, Huckabee and Paul. Only person I know so far to respond and except is Huckabee. Will Ron Paul except and win the debate? Well, not if he doesn't except! Ron Paul supporters we need to make sure Ron Paul shows up. And so should McCain!

[CANADA LOVES RON PAUL!!!!]

Giuliani already has publicly acknowledged that Ron Paul won every single GOP debate that he was allowed to participate in.

The reason that Huckabee may want to exclude Dr. Paul in that debate is because Huckabee doesn't actually have a clue. He has stolen most of his platforms from Ron Paul over the last several weeks -- The MSM could actually verify this if they were actually giving Ron Paul any media attention.

It is very sad to see America reduced to a country where secrecy and incompetence rule and censorship is permitted.

In the words of a great American president, those who make peaceful r3volution impossible will make violent r3volution inevitable...

[dom youngross]

"...Mike Huckabee, the only remaining contender between your guy, Rep. Ron Paul, and the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, that nobody senator from Arizona, John McCain."

------------------

No Andrew, there's a lot more than Huckabee and McCain standing between Ron Paul and the Republican NOMINATION.

(I got a kick out of the way you tried to downgrade and reorient our prize, from the NOMINATION to McCain!)

There's human nature, number one. And there's the reorientation toward the decrepit GOP's most-likely growth sector, number two.

It won't be until the other 19 of 20 people nationwide who do not currently support Paul for President can turn on the TV or radio, or open a newspaper, hard-copy or on-line, and see Paul uniformly portrayed as a credible candidate (meaning equal time and non-pejorative mention) that 50% or more of those 19 will act within their follow-the-herd comfort zone to vote for Paul, and give Paul the clear-cut majority.

Overall, in the world outside of idea-based Paul supporters, it's not about ideas, REAL ideas, and corresponding CONSTITUTIONALLY-APPROPRIATE positions on the issues. It never has been. It's about staying in the comfort zone, and following the portrayed 'Annointed One.'

The behind-the-scenes MSM Wiley Coyotes and sly foxes understood human nature as it relates to elections (and in turn, getting what they want most: continued profits from perpetual welfare/warfare). Hence, the media marginalization of Ron Paul from the outset.

The sooner Paul supporters stop looking at the rest of the voting public as 'sheeple' and recognize others instead as the MSM does, people just predisposed to follow, the better for us.

McCain has something to lose by debating Huckabee -- and EVERYTHING to lose debating Ron Paul. In a one-on-one Paul would make McCain look like a buffoon, on issue after issue after issue. And McCain-the-annointed needs no help in that regard. The 19 of 20 people we need to reach nationwide might get *uncomfortable* seeing the Annointed One look bad.

A, I'm hoping that Paul retains his Congressional seat. B, I'm hoping that after A, Paul RELENTLESSLY challenges McCain to a debate, and not let a day go by without challenging him. And then number each day that goes by with a daily press release saying: "Day Number 'x' of America held Hostage: McCain refuses to debate Ron Paul."

Then there's the emerging voting-public growth sector for the decrepit GOP.

I couldn't understand until recently why Mr. USA, McAmnesty, and alpha-Neocon Bush were favoring illegal immigration. My problem was that I was thinking along the lines of getting the most and best candidate for my vote, just like any 'consumer' would.

The decrepit GOP however, has the opposite objective, that is to supply the LEAST candidate for my vote in this election -- and best ensure their own prospects eight, 12, and more years down the road.

I think the decrepit GOP looked about previously and strategized that the growing Latino vote could play as decisive a role the Christian Coalition previously played for them -- as both a future voting block and a recruitment grist-mill to support continued 'patriotic' foreign-policy adventurism. But first the decrepit GOP would have to decisively win that demographic away from the Democrats.

As such, I think the pro-illegal immigration movement is McCain and McBush's way of accelerating the influx of potential new GOP supporters, within a 20-year time frame.

Should McCain debate Paul on national TV, his pro-illegal-immigration stance could be laid bare for what it is: the GOP's attempt to toss overboard the current generations of the native-born public of varied races and ethnicities, who's fathers and mothers, and grandfathers and grandmothers, and even maybe great grams and gramps came to the US via the front door, in favor of the current wave of immigrants who will emigrate legally or illegally. And once here, legally, or on the extended, McAmnesty plan to citizenship, would work and fight for far less than the 'going rate,' because that far less is a hell of a lot more than they had in their home countries.

This has ALWAYS been the case with recent immigrants. Nobody has emigrated to the best country on earth because they wanted something less than they already had in their previous home country. And as such they are disposed to accept less, once here, than the 'going rate' in terms of wages, and demands for full-strength Constitutional protections -- AT LEAST FOR THE FIRST OR SECOND generation, until they realize they in turn have been 'duped' by the decrepit GOP.

And of any group, recent immigrants are most disposed to exercise the right to vote in the land of the free.

In a sense, the current majority of the legal-citizen VOTING public is becoming like the few remaining skilled auto workers and members of the trades with great benefits, and is being 'outsourced' by McCain and McBush to an expected GOP-amenable wave of more-affordable (from THEIR standpoint) current and future VOTING and FIGHTING citizens.

But the good news is that McCain is a mass of contradictions, spring-loaded to fly apart. The situation is still fluid, and a lot can happen yet to upset the apple cart.

So GO RON PAUL!!!

[Dump Bush]

The Huckster is correct. There should be a debate between the two candidates. However, the debate should be between Neo-Nazi McCain and Freedom Fighter Ron Paul. Neo-Conservative Huckabee is just a carbon copy of McCain.

[AK]

I really understand fervent R. Paul supporters (I'm occasionally one of them).

I also understand (but not necessarily believe) supporters of Dr Paul's opponents.

But excuse my language, the people that are happy that RP isn't doing great are brainwashed i d i o t s.
An example is Wallace, above. Search for cuckoo.
Wallace, please do something, so we can give you the Darwin Award, hopefully before the Election Day.
(the only other possibilities are that he is a Fed Banker/Employee or a paid shill)

And now for something completely different: ask your local friendly librarian for a copy of 'the Long Emergency' by James Kunstler, New York: Atlantic Monthly, 2005.
It all may be moot :-(

[dave]

there is no reason to assume that the echo of the corporate mass media censorship would be much different than in any previous debate, should ron paul arrive at 'challenging' mccain and huckabee in a real gop debate he'd objectively win hands down.
they could be expected to declare mccain the winner no matter how imbecile, immature and contradictory his propositions and reasoning - unless his 'owners' in some strange but fittingly perverse twist should decide to 'kill the constitution for good' by appropriating, perverting and effectively eliminating the freedom movement by trying to manipulate and puppeteer ron paul. but that would mean to seriously 'misunderestimate' ron paul and those of his mindset.

[erin]

I am a typical Paul fanatic. I, unfortunately, look nothing like the woman in the picture.

For the sake of of Ron Pauls revolution I guess I have to:

Woo HOO GOO RON PAUL!!!

Chalk one up for freedom!
Go constitutional rights!

(LOL. Thanks, Erin for making my early morning extra pleasant!)

BOOO Tax Hike Mike!

[Scott]

Huckleberry and Insane Mccain FEAR Dr. Paul, as do the Deomcrats, the Fed, and the Media. They are all praying to their Dark god that Congressman Paul does not get the nomination. But he well!!!! And when the Masses hear just a few of Dr. Paul,s speeches they well be renewed, refreshed, and rejuvinated as they finally are allowed to bask in the truth......

[Geoffrey Kassin]

Thank you to all the Paulinteer's I wish I could state the good doctors case as clearly and politly as the rest of you.

MSM has campained against Ron Paul, He is an amazing person. I have seen and heard the things MSM and the other candidates do and say and his dignity is intact.

No candidate in any political race in my generation has the honesty and dignity of Ron Paul not a single one.

[BentPerception]

Ron Paul has been talking the same game plan since he entered the race, unlike the other so-called candidates!!! I've followed the whole race up to this point and it is ridiculous seeing how when the other cadidates started to see how effective Ron Pauls message was and how successful his campaign has become from a grassroots level....., it wasn't until then that the other candidates started to sing HIS message out loud as there own!! Dr. Ron paul is the only one with years of public service before getting involved with politics, that has led to his sturdy foundational beliefs in humane commonsense principles..., untainted by the poison of corrupt politics!!! The only reason many people may not understand his message is because the have been preconditioned / brainwashed from birth to take the easy route and go for the easy money no matter who it effects in the process! This nation has become a nation of GREED, MATERILISM and EXCESS.......one huge COCK-FIGHT!!! Bottom line is this is the modern day ROMAN EMPIRE!!! Other country's see through all the B.S., and that is why the U.S. has so many enemy's!!! It is up to the Ron Paul Revolution..., ME, YOU and THE NEXT ONE, to take our country back from those who enslave us with the failed POLITICS, the failed MONETARY SYSTEM, the failed FORIGN POLICIES...., THIS FAILED SYSTEM we presently call the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!! There is no UNITY when the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT acts like a slave driver with a whip in hand...., ready to crack it at anyone or anything they deam UNPROFITABLE or OUT OF LINE!!! When the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT cracks the whip on individual States of this so-called union that under the U.S. CONSTITUTION are supposedly alowed to govern themselves!!! No disrespect towards african-americans at all for what there ancestors have gone through..., but there is a new type of slavery on the horizon..., and it is colorblind!!! The supporters of the other candidates are gonna have to wake up eventually before it is to late....., but I have that sick to the stomach feeling that they will be the ones that try to take credit away form those who deserve it if things get better, just like the candidates they support......

There won't be any more debates and McCain will be their nominee, sad to say. I hate to quote Pat Buchanan, but he's right when he says McCain "makes Cheney look like Ghandi." And, by the way, has anyone ever run for President - with two ( ! ) ongoing wars - and run on a platform of starting more ( !! ) wars? Unprecedented! It's like a SNL skit gone horribly awry. Rewrite!

also, JC was right.... this article did go to thousands of RP supporters instantly. I found it by a mb post, or it's in my email if you chose. I hope no one calls me about it, no offence to your writing. lol

Time heals all wounds, the Huckabes, McCains, Obamas, and Clintons will all fade away. History will mark them all as traitors, and false professors of ignoance. The timeless truth of Liberty, and Freedom will cotinue to endure. Dr. Paul's message cannot, and will not fall asunder, because if it does, so does your Freedon, and Liberty. The mindless dribble coming from the media brain washed, is just the REM dream babble of those who have not woken up yet. But the poop is heading toward the fan, and when they are covered in it, even they will wake up and support the RON PAUL REVOLUTION.

RON PAUL 08', and BEYOND

[Frank M.]

I'm proud to say that I'm part of the 4% in Wisconsin that voted for Ron Paul. I'm 36 years old & this is the first time I had a good reason to vote. I never did like the idea of voting for the lesser of two evils & with Dr. Paul I don't have to. He's the first candidate that I actually believed wasn't lying to me or giving me lip service for my vote. He's the first candidate that stood by his principles & never wavered from his belief in the Constitution. He's also the first candidate that I've donated money to as well (currently $801).

My vote will not end with Ron Paul either. I'm voting for every Ron Paul Republican or Constitutionalist in every future Congressional, Senate & Presidential race until the day I die.

My eyes are open & I'm never closing them again.

[glpjr]

Well, of course Huchsterbee thinks there's only two left in the race. And were he to become President, he would also blind himself to any other facts that he doesn't wish to see. You can always tell reams about the character, fairness, and integrity of a candidate by simply watching how he treats his opponents and their efforts.

[American fungi]

An election based upon Fraud, deception, lies and blatant censorship is no election at all. When will people have the courage to stop the cover up?. Dr. Ron Paul is a blessing to American politics based upon his credentials and congressional record. He has brought the issues to this campaign. As a doctor, he is the only person who really understands the health insurance issues facing Americans and how to fix it. No other candidate consistently stands up to the Federal Reserve chairman and exposes them as the stooges they have become. The media continues to play this election off as business as usual but the truth be known that it became a fraud against the American people from the beginning and continues to keep them far away from the truth. We will never forget these people who have contributed to the fraud and they will be held accountable. When you turn the lights on these individuals they scramble like cockroaches for a reason. A warning to all those that have contributed to this election fraud, your days are numbered , you will be exposed and charged accordingly.

[Earthmother]

Sure, Let's have a debate between looser #1 and looser #2. Should be real enlightening. Then, whoever the "winner" is, let them debate RON - on national TV, prime time......

[ntaghonest]

Plans are in the mind whilst the planning is in the hands. I would like to remind people to stay positive both in their actions and criticism. The positivity and undeniable maxim of "Liberty and Justice for all" demands we honor its purpose and form. Ladies & Gentlemen, Fellow Americans... adhere to the principles we esteem so that they be more than just words upon parchment. My best wishes & compliments to all of you patriots in the fray.

[Rebecca]

Thank you, Andrew, for letting us know about Mike Huckabee's latest move. This man pretends that Ron Paul's ideas are original to him, which should be a tip off as to his true character. Now, either he is unbearably arrogant, or he is demonstrating that he can't count to three. EIther way, it's a disgusting picture and I don't see how Christians can support him in good conscience. Surely they will wake up before it's too late.

[Theresa]

This is the second time that Huckleberry has stated such w/ the 2 BS. He thinks he's better than Paul ha!. I would never vote for the man who wants to rule America by biblical decree!

PS thanks for the link to the schedule ;)

[RuthIA]

I am a hard core Ron Paul Supporter right through the general election IF he wins the Republican nomination. If he does not, I will vote for the Constitution Party's Candidate. I am praying it will be Alabama's former Chief Justice Roy S. Moore or Florida's Dr. Chuck Baldwin!! These two are also excellent Constitutional Statesmen who will compliment Congressman Ron Paul well in his work in th U.S. House. Now with that trio there could truly be HOPE FOR THE FUTURE & POSITIVE CHANGE!

It is amusing to me that Mike Huckabee, who has been riding free advertising through the media since the start of his campaign (and has less than 1 million in his campaign coffers), is calling his own values voters debate while neglecting Dr. Paul. This seems to betray the Christian values of universal love and inclusiveness. Then again, Huckabee doesn't actually have a theology degree.

As Ron Paul said in quoting Sinclair Lewis, when fascism comes it will be "wrapped in a flag..." (McCain) "and carrying a cross" (Huckabee).

Huckabee wants the nation to have blind faith in his candidacy. Ron Paul supporters, on the other hand, are confident that Dr. Paul's record speaks for itself. There is simply no way for McCain or Huckabee to succeed in debating him on the issues--so they avoid him at all costs.

He already made a fool out of John McCain when asking him about the President's Working Group on Economic Markets. McCain had no idea that "my friends" Henry Paulson was actually on the panel. McCain will be a terrible president because he will look to "my friends" to tell him how to make a decision. This is the reason McCain needs to have an onslaught of endorsements.

Snake-oil salesman and rip-off artist Mike Huckabee will soon realize that he needs to go back to school as well. Economically, he wants to get rid of the IRS but impose a "fair tax" to restore the dollar's value. Does not compute. We want a return to sound money, money that is as good as gold.
