I’ve said this before, and I make no bones about saying it again.
Mike Huckabee is a man without honor.
Maybe you’ve thought I just say that because I believe he’s only in this campaign to siphon off votes from Mitt. This fact is not in dispute.
Today, however,
both he and McCain have taken the political system to a new low – something that truly requires the combination of shamelessness and desperation embodied by those two campaigns.
In the West Virginia Caucus, when it became apparent that Mitt would pull out the first victory of this Super Tuesday, Huck and McCain supporters (obviously working in tandem) got together to combine their delegates against Mitt. Huckabee won his first caucus since Iowa – only with the support of McCain backers intent on derailing the Mitt Express.
If McCain and Huck are going to collude their campaigns, then the time has come for McCain to announce Huck as his VP. To continue Huck’s charade of a campaign is simply dishonest, dishonorable, and makes a mockery of the political primary system.
This tactic is a travesty and West Virginia should be ashamed they allowed themselves to be used in such a fashion.
Memo to Huck: Win fair, or go home. Actually, in truth, you should have gone home a very long time ago. You are a man without honor – and your national political future is over. End Memo.
