I am unimpressed. I am unrepressed. I am undeterred. I am unbroken, and unbowed. I am for Governor Mike Huckabee, for President of the United States. In 2012 or 2016, perhaps, but still for him. He is the best man for the job. Now. And he will be the best man for the job in those future years. No Mormon billionaire who seeks to buy off the conservative movement by taking over its talking heads by buying off Clear Channel Communications, or a minority interest in Fox News will do. No half-baked political hack that is “chosen” for us by our supposed “conservative leadership” will be acceptable, especially when their real motivation is that he is a southern rural country boy who their blue blood from the Potomac and the Hudson consider unfit to breathe the same air as they. And they accused him of provoking class warfare!
In the meantime, I will badger John McCain to make him his choice for Vice-President. Not that I think I and my fellow Huckabee supporters will have to try hard. Frankly I think Senator John likes him. I have to admit “Old Man McCain” is growing on me. After the betrayal by people I used to admire, I am beginning to change my own loyalties. So, off to being a loyal real conservative Republican–voting for McCain, but ready to work like a slave for his election—if he chooses the right man—Gov. Huckabee, as his running mate—and the eventual Vice-President of the United States, to become the 45th President of the United States in 2012 or 2016.
As the Crusaders would say, “God wills it!”
