Do not trust Huck

I was never a huge fan of Governor Huckabee but now I've come to really dislike him. He should have withdrawn after Governor Romney got out of the race. But no, he said he still had a chance to win and would carry his campaign forward to the convention in the hopes that conservatives would rally around him. That hasn't happened.

This week Huckabee was given another chance to get out of the race when Romney endorsed Senator McCain and encouraged his pledged delegates to support the Senator. Unfortunately, he decided to press on, perhaps so he can continue to make TV appearances.

The worst of it is that he continues to convince some Americans to send him $20 checks even though he will never win the nomination. If he is willing to rip these people off, I'm certiain that I can't trust him with my tax dollars.

Huckabee started out as a quick-witted, populist candidate. He's now a phony, power-loving televangelist.
