Is Huckabee finished?

[pbrower2a]

The GOP has few ways to win and many to lose in 2012.  One of those ways - Huckabee - has disappeared today with the emergence of this story.  Huckabee may well have been finished even earlier.  The corporate tycoons and the robber barons who control the inner workings of the GOP would have seen to it that a populist candidate never became the nominee, no matter how sympathetic he may have been to their Christofascist policies.  This means that the Clinton-but-not Obama states are in danger of falling to the Democrats.  These states are culturally different.  Time will tell if they will vote for a candidate who has improved their economic situation rather than one who shares their regressive values.

It is worth nothing that Huckabee is more popular among the 18-25 demographic than any other Republican candidate.  As young people become increasingly liberal, they need someone who can reach out to them.  So far, the GOP has churned out Sarah Palin - a mediocrity who has not proved herself intelligent enough to win an election, much less serve as President.  

In case anyone wonders what happened to the real pbrower2a, then I am he; imitation is flattery, but when it is that blatant it is plagiarism.

my comment -- I have no way in which to know this or deny it. I can say nothing about that.

I don't use the hackneyed term "robber barons" for contemporary plutocrats or the word "Christofascist". I recognize the current configuration of the GOP as a coalition of right-wing special interests to the exclusion of almost all else.

I'm sure he would get hammered on it in the primaries though. Quite frankly, most people have no idea that he let the guy out of jail. Not everyone is politically in-tuned like the rest of us.

His primary opponents might use it, recalling the very-effective "Willie Horton" ad, but Obama would never use it against Huckabee for reasons that should be obvious.
