No, not at the moment. Can you tell us what's going on?

Mike Huckabee: "If somebody needs to go to jail, I'm willing to go in [Kim Davis'] place."

I was just reading that from Glen Beck's The Blaze. Obviously Mike Huckabee is trying to get support the only way her knows how to. Rally up the Christian voters who want to play the victim card.

This is a epic day. Regardless of what happened, this is great. Kim Davis is strictly speaking for her rights. I disagree with how she conducted herself with the license, but she spoke up for herself. But she should resign though.

When you pardon 1,033 people, you like freeing people from jail!

Can we just take him at his word and do it? I'm tired of him consistent baiting.

funniest bit is how the Huckabee campaign totally froze out Cruz from getting on stage at the event or even talk to the press. The video of Cruz literally being Huckblocked (not online yet) is hilarious.

1,003 individuals were pardoned by bleeding-heart liberal Mike Huckabee, so I can't be too suprised he'd want to free someone else.

Any Republican who is seeking the benefit from this politically is disqualified from the Presidency in my mind.

Cruz couldn't even photo bomb Davis properly, while he was skipping out on Congress returning to DC and failing to make the stage all in the same day.  Fail for him, better luck next social issue, Senator.

Comes on DB, you're talking silly.

Calling Huck' a bleeding liberal is so laughable it's insane. I love the guy's kind spirit but I do agree he's not set for commander in cheif.

Huckabee, like Santorum, is no "conservative" the only issues that make them "conservative" are LGBT and abortion issues, they are fiscal centrists at best.

I wouldn't qualify this as a disaster. Huckabee is in the race to sell books, we all know this, and the kind of people who buy Mike Huckabee books will eat this up.

I could see Huckabee maybe pull some evangelical votes from Carson and Cruz because of this, maybe we'll see a small uptick of a percent or two out of this.

Huckabee shamelessly playing to the Right to life gallery.  He doesn't understand the fundamental's of the law, the Supreme court ruled on the same sex issue and Davis as a county official has an obligation to certify those marriage issues, whatever her personal views are. If she's so strongly opposed to the law and believes in her principles, then she should resign. But no, Davis per say wants to have her cake and eat it. She was grandstanding and putting down a marker for future political office. Nice to have T.V. camera's along with Huckabee in your corner. She should enjoy her 15 minutes while she can. As for Huckabee, his campaign is on the rails and he needs oxygen and he will stoop to anything for a bit of publicity.  It will be to no avail, his campaign ain't going nowhere and he knows this.

The quote from Huckabee that I heard that struck me was that he rejected SCOTUS review of the law. In so doing I think he was essentially disagreeing with Marbury v Madison (1803) and would have that ruling overturned. Then again President Jefferson disagreed with the ruling at the time, too.

Jefferson "won" Marbury versus Madison. It took him awhile to figure out that his nemesis  had figured out a way to assert judicial supremacy as the arbiter of last resort without giving Jefferson an opportunity to defy him - he outfoxed him. In many ways, Jefferson was a very reckless man. He was fortunate to have Madison around to restrain his more wild impulses. Huckabee is the ultimate demagogue, even worse than Trump. He nauseates me.

On that much we agree.

He's Kim's current husband.
