Another Republican lets loose. I didn't expect it to be Mike Huckabee, who's doing a press junket for his new book. Is there anyone associated with this election cycle not out hawking their book?
He's angry at Romney because he didn't congratulate him on his Iowa win. He also rags on Romney for changing his conservative views right before he ran. Who doesn't? barry's still changing. Huckabee on Romney: "his record was anything but conservative until he changed the light bulbs in his chandelier in time to run for president."
When was the last time Mitt Romney changed a light bulb of any sort?

2008 Election = Cult of personality
November 4, 2008
Here is the sad irony of this election. Hillary routinely polled higher on the economy over barry. She had it as her number one from day one, including the mortgage crisis and bailouts. She was stumping on this before barry even caught on. Barry didn’t have the economy in his top three on March 29, 2008. Think about that. I don’t even recall what the third was. Clinton discussed specifics and laid out concrete plans. Barry was running on hope and Change! and nothing else but Iraq - which I cannot stress enough was the biggest fraud perpetrated on voters in this election. People are still buying it. People don’t care I guess that they have been deceived. Eventually they will. It’s what got him the nomination. Period. And yet, on election day, Iraq is polling at 10% and barry’s positions have changed so many times they reflect exactly what he has done since 2002: talk a big game, lie and do nothing. He had nothing else as evidenced by the “I agree with Hillary on that”.
So Iraq is at the bottom and barry’s positions are no different than Hillary’s. The scam worked and bonus the economy worsened and McCain said the fundamentals were strong as the banks tanked.
Had he picked Romney?
Voters are still concerned about terrorism as they were in 2004 (71-71). And on 10-31-08 barry did not have national security in his top five. So none of it matters. Bush was insurmountable unless a national security crisis happened. Biden’s comments were passed on for the wardrobe inanity. Says a lot of the state of the nation and the power of pro-obama media bias.
Now the economy is the focus (62% ) and Hillary was emphatically thought to be much superior to barry in confidence in handling the economy. So who – another piece of evidence as if we need one - should be president by substance? It’s perfectly clear. And had she still been in the race, the election would not even be a question mark.
This election was a cult of personality, whether anyone wants to admit. Period. A man with a resume so thin he would have been ridiculed had he not have been black and a man. A man not qualified to run a state or even the senate. An inexperienced man chanting nebulous promises and bipartisanship, with no experience of having done so. A man who has never stood up – not once - when it was not politically expedient will be making his first decision of consequence as president.
That is personality and the hope of change. Truth is anything would be change after Bush. Now we wait to see if he can deliver on any promise. Taxes will be increased in six months. Iraq will go one till 2010 and another 2000 brave men and women will be dead and even more damaged. Afghanistan will not be better. Nothing will have been done about energy or healthcare. The budget deficit will be worse. Nothing will have been done about illegal immigration. And we will be in a recession with no halt on unemployment or foreclosures.
How long will it be until that hope turns to disillusionment and anger?

barry "ran the best campaign ever"
November 3, 2008
barry has not run the campaign of the century the proobama media is waxing poetically about.
1 - Steady. Lost after winning 11-in-a-row and needed to be coronated. He couldn't WIN it. The best campaign ever does not need to be coronated.
2 - No mistakes. This is the funniest one. No mistakes got noticed by the proobama media. Or if it was it was deliberately not discussed.
3 - Stayed on message. And changed his stance on about everything.
4 - Handled the economy. By sitting back, doing nothing and characterizing McCain as an erratic, lurching, hotheaded bathrobe and slipper wearing old man. barry made the worst ad ever in this campaign. McCain's rage a nation security issue. It was pure evil. Got no press.
5 - Best ground game. Basic Daley Machine and $800 million dollars buys a lot of airtime. A 30-minute prime time infomercial holding up the World Series?
6 - Record turnout. 8 years of the worst president in history, two wars and a tanked economy is responsible for the turnout...and then there's ACORN.
7 - Honorable campaign. Don't need anymore than to see that all three of barry's opponents plus President Clinton leave the race racists. Transcender of Race? Man of Integrity?
8 - He trounced Senator Clinton. She picked up a net 400K in the closing primaries. She had more voters actually pull the lever for her. They were separated by .1% of the vote. He outspent Sen Clinton at times 5:1. in PA and she won by 10 points. She had wins by 40 points. She was behind by ~140 delegates (Kennedy 700?) who aren't bound to their pledge.
9 - Primary was illegitimate because of the behind closed doors negotiations on Michigan. He got delegates from a state where his name was not on the ballot. Neither could win without the superdelegates. How is this democratic? A group of citizens cast votes that were more powerful than ever the delegates. And a large group of democratic voters in Michigan had their votes highjacked forever illegitimizing the primary. The Michiganders had no role in having the primary moved up and if every other citizen had their vote counted as cast - theirs should have been respected also. And what barry did about getting those delegates showed The American People just how far barry will got to win. He did not need those 4 delegates and he did not need the votes. His win was guaranteed and everyone on this planet knew that. It was evil. He and the DNC didn't just set out to win - they set out to destroy the Clintons - barry in the lead.
10 - His delegate lead was directly from the caucuses. He won caucuses of states where there were a total of 5-8k voters and they had as much weight as some larger states. Only 4/13 were blue states.
11 - Without Senator Clinton pushing him to the very last Primary - he would not have had a chance with voters. If he had gone out in April as they were all screaming at her to do - the specter of wright would have remained that he would not have been able to overcome. Also the vetting by the Republicans would have started earlier and the pro-obama media would not have been able to squelch all of it. It came to ate to be useful and it was the same things the Clinton campaign had raised before.
12 Proobama media bias caused him to be "teflon barry". They chose what to cover. For example, during the worst wright flareup, Clinton got more negative coverage. Palin has had more scrutiny when biden has been laughed at.
This race was remarkably close and yet barry ran the best campaign ever? He ran a campaign that got away with whatever he wanted. Fact. I only hope I live long enough to see it proven irrefutably. And I hope I live long enough to see what happens with this inevitable crisis: Georgia and Russia.
Sen Clinton earned her way onto the ticket. Remember the change of no old Washington? Out with the old and in with the new? And then - as usual - his actions don't come close to his words and he picks the third longest running senator out of political expedience. Oh well this is tiring. It's the same thing he has done his entire political career and he is the Herald of New Politics. No thanks.
The truth is clear in this election for the nonobamerized. Folks decide to go with the unproven and ever waffling never have made a decision vs and old man using the "POW card" and a ditzball from the wilderness with an IQ of Caribou Barbie and of course THAT woman who far surpasses barry as a politician. Clinton had complete command of the issues without the need 2500 advisors. Very sad. How is barry running his campaign? Viciously and without honor.
But what other choice was there? If McCain had Mitt Romney (even his name is presidential) on the ticket it would be a whole different story
