Huckabee wins ABC Republican Debate

Way to go Huckabee. I will be give some input on the topics of discussion.

Foreign policy: This issue becomes a "bash on Huckabee" session. About a month ago Huckabee called Bush's policies "arrogant" and a "Bunker mentality". I disagree with Huckabee on how he stated this but lets ask the classic Hannity question: What would Reagan Do? Please visit this link to learn more

Huckabee calls Romney out on his flip-flops. Romney was against the Surge and Bush's stances before he supported the Surge and Bush's stances. Romney asks Huckabee to let himself to explain his positions to which Huckabee replies, "which one?"

Principles: Romney has no set of values on which his positions are based. He claims his values are derived from the family but has repeatedly claimed anti-family values including not having a definition of marriage, not protecting life, and supporting Gun Control.

Mike Huckabee clarifies the question posed by Bush. Huckabee derives his position for the well being of our country. Mike Huckabee has principles, you may not agree with them but you know where he stands and how he will stand!

Healthcare: I could argue for Huckabee here but the fact is ABC showed socialized medicine in such a bias manner I must defeat the idea in your head that government run healthcare. Last year I went to get my Passport and was promised to get it in 10 weeks. I got it in 20 weeks. This is the government that would be running your healthcare, and you trust them to fix you before time runs out?

Immigration: The panel of candidates all agree that the border must be secured first.

McCain zings Romney on trying to buy votes and negative attack ads.

Huckabee tried to stay out of the issues but I see this as a bad move. Rudy, Mitt, and McCain got most of the play tonight.

Obama v Republicans: Huckabee outlines the differences between himself and Obama. He then draws the similarity of their message of Hope. Huckabee explains that Republicans will loose unless we give Americans a message to hold onto. We must have a positive message and the message of Free market and lower taxes is a message that will raise more people out of poverty than any other.

Energy Independence: Most of the candidates reflect my views that we must become independent because it is a national security issue. Mike Huckabee says it well that when you swipe the card at the gas station you may as well be sending a check to the terrorist. I believe this is true for both the middle east and communist nations like Venezuela.

Deabte is over.

Now to the Democrat debate!



God Bless America and Pray for Mike Huckabee
