A Southern Baptist Freeper who would like to jam with Keith Richards... and yes, that's a big problem (read likeability factor).
Prediction: The MSM puff pieces will be coming out of the woodwork like cockroaches this week. (I have already seen a particularly blowjoby one by Anderson Cooper)

Huckabee offered 'no-cost' deal for Mexican Consulate
Developer confirms role, legislator raps ex-governor for using taxpayer funds for illegals

Former Gov. Mike Huckabee
An Arkansas commercial developer confirmed his role in a no-cost "incentive deal" packaged by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee to attract a Mexican Consulate to Little Rock.
Meanwhile, an Arkansas legislator expressed concern that Huckabee used taxpayer funds inappropriately in a plan ultimately designed to assist illegal immigrants in Arkansas.
Bruce Burrow told WND his commercial real estate company acquired the land and developed the Mexican consulate building in Little Rock at the request of Huckabee, in a deal the then-governor engineered to make sure he snared the Mexican consulate away from other states.
"I agreed to do the project at no cost," Burrow told WND, confirming his involvement in the Huckabee plan...
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=58657 But the more we learn about Gov. Huckabee, the more apparent it becomes the Hillary Clinton camp must be salivating at the prospect of facing him in the general election. Why?
Several stories are swirling around Huckabee which raise serious questions about his judgement and ethics. The first is Huckabee's personal Willy Horton story. Several years ago, for reasons that are still unclear, Huckabee intervened in the case of a convicted rapist named Wayne Dumond. After Dumond made parole, he went on to rape again. The next time, he also murdered his victim:
...the Times new reporting shows the extent to which Huckabee and a key aide were involved in the process to win Dumonds release. It was a process marked by deviation from accepted parole practice and direct personal lobbying by the governor, in an apparently illegal and unrecorded closed-door meeting with the parole board (the informal name by which the Post Prison Transfer Board is known).
Why Huckabee is not only still standing --- but running strong ---- is also unclear. Other questions surrounding his tenure are even more puzzling. One is why, earlier this year as Gov. Huckabee was leaving office, he apparently ordered the destruction of more than 100 computers in the governor's office:
As you'll remember, in early January 2007, as his tenure as governor ran out, Huckabee ordered his staff to electronically wipe and then crush the hard drives of almost 100 laptop and desktop computers in the governor's office (soon after taking office, incoming governor Mike Beebe had to allocate $335,000 from his operating fund to buy new hard drives and computers to replace those crushed by his successor). At the time, Huckabee said that the decision to crush the hard drives was made in order to protect the privacy of those who had personal information on the drives. Critics, however, recalled that early in Huckabee's term as governor, documents, e-mails and memos stored on hard drives just like the ones that were destroyed formed the basis of embarrassing stories about Huckabee, including a 1998 story in the Arkansas Times detailing how Huckabee and his family were using the $60,000-a-year Governor's Mansion fund as their personal piggy bank.
