John McCain has been crisscrossing the state of Florida at an urgent pace, so when McCain stopped suddenly without warning, Mike Huckabee's head became lodged in John McCain's rectum, forcing the permanent placement of Huckabee's nose in Senator McCain's upper colon. Whether McCain will have Huckabee's nose removed from his pooper is still unknown.
I've been saying this for a couple of weeks. There's no question that the Huckster has been angling to be John McCain's veep if McCain gets the GOP nod. Everything he's been doing since New Hampshire shows this. Now, Fox News has realized this:
While campaigning in Birmingham, Alabama, Huckabee came to McCain’s defense. Romney called McCain dishonest yesterday and Huckabee was quick to defend McCain. Is he trying to secure the Veep position in a McCain Administration?
Gee, Carl...YOU THINK?!
Huckabee scares me a lot. There's something about him that is very smarmy in the same way that Bill Clinton is. He has a charisma that is undeniable, but when he smiles I find myself wondering what he's really up to. He is a sneaky politician and he's very driven by power, his history in AR proves that. Put him in a position where he can actually influence policy (or succeed the President) and it's a whole new level of fear.
McCain would be an idiot to select Huckabee as a running mate if he gets the nomination. If he gets the nomination and wanted to keep conservatives at least interested in the race, he'd need to select someone like Romney (never happen) or Fred Thompson (more likely) or perhaps Sonny Perdue (Gov. GA). Personally, I think Jeb Bush would be a great running mate for any candidate but people won't put up with another Bush on a ticket.
Watch Huckabee become even more of a sycophant over the next week.
