Weigel on Huckabee

by Little Miss Attila on March 1, 2011

He’s “not a birther.”

True enough–though he is, um, lots of things. Such as: a populist. And I don’t mean that in the good way, as one might call someone a lower-case-d democrat.

He’s a cop-killer. That’s enough.

Huckabee should just go away. Gingrich, too. For that matter, Romney.

He’s a very nice pro-life Democrat, and I understand that and his religious conviction makes him more electable as a Republican. I just don’t want him running for the Republican Presidential nomination any more than I want Mitt.

Hm, Brett has a good point, I don’t want Gingrich, either… I’m tired of folks being so far to the left that they’re barely tolerable to our wishy-washy folks on the theory that it’s the best way to win.

The difference is, I would hold my nose and vote for these other guys. I would not vote for Huckabee, no matter what–he is a total statist. There is, in his mind, no societal problem that the gummint can’t fix.

Yeah, it’ll be back to the protest vote for the Libertarians for me, should Huckabee be the nominee.

McCain was bad enough.
