CNN BREAKING: Reverend Huckleberry opens *22 point* lead on Romney in Iowa

1. Bull. Shit.

These polls are out of control.

They need to be brought under control somehow.

[Ezlivin]

2. Praise the Lord!

I wonder when Romney will be baptized as a Southern Baptist?

[Bluebear]

4. Romney's underwear must be in a bunch today with this news.

[TheCowsCameHome]

24. I imagine his skivvies go for $300 a pair. That's a bunch.

[Jacobin]

6. I think they are driving his entourage down to the river as we speak

:rofl:

[Hardrada]

8. We,, he's the right age for it !

O Brother Willard, where art thou?

[Jacobin]

3. Oh my. That "Ima Christian speech" musta flopped with the fundies

[napi21]

5. Did they REALLY call him Huckleberry???????

I know I heard about his big lead, but I didn't hear the Huckleberry part!

[Bluebear]

11. No, that's my special little pet name for him

[napi21]

16. I really wasn't sure because yesterday Buchanan called him Hucky!

I couldn't believe THAT either! But I HEard it!!!

[stevedeshazer]

27. You stole that!!

I've bestowed it on Lindsay Gra-yum.

[Ghost in the Machine]

7. LOL! I thought that I was the only one who called him "Huckleberry"

:rofl:

:hi:

[Bluebear]

12. :)

:toast:

9. Watch out for his 'fair Tax' plan, it's evil.

10. As the frontrunner, will Reverend Huckleberry now be hounded by the media?

[MADem]

13. Watch--friken McCAIN will end up taking it!!!

I sometimes wonder if Iowans play "Fuck the Pollster" on a regular basis.

After all, Dean was so far out in front it wasn't funny. Kerry was running, what, fourth?

IA polls are meaningless. It is funny to read, though. Hell, Mittsy the Shittsy spends money trying to buy votes, hand over fist, and Huckapoo there buys 'em a hotdog!

[EFerrari]

14. When I saw him spread eagle before a pulpit, I knew we were in trouble.

("Help me, Obi Won Kenobi, you're my only hope.")

[Richard Steele]

15. That's great. Huckabee would be a dream nominee...to run AGAINST. nm

[Lucinda]

17. If thats a new poll I have to wonder WHEN it was taken

I dont think we've seen the change that will occur as a result of Romneys speech as yet...Still not surprising for me to hear the Huckster is doing well. I expected it. Now the wild card, to me, is what Mitt gains from his God chat.

[Disturbed]

18. I would love to hear him explain his belief in the Creation.

This guy is bat shit nutz. He is also a Liar. I guess that qualifies him to be Pres. according to
the 4th Reich Wingers.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

25. Both Huckabee and Romeny are putting their religious beliefs at issue

Normally, I believe that religion has no place in politics. But since both Huckabee and Romney are using their religion to pander for votes, they've opened the door on the issue. They can't claim that it's a private matter now, if they don't like the question. They should be questioned on every one of their beliefs.

23. Wednesday and Thursday of this week

A Newsweek poll:

19. What the Huck?....n/t

[DS1]

20. Well Huck me and a call me Biff

[IsItJustMe]

21. Seems to me that given the Republican choice of candidates, Reverend Huckleberry is the most natural

slection for them.

[Seen the light]

22. VERY simple explanation for this

Many fundies weren't going for Huckabee originally because they all assumed that he had no chance of winning. Now with the big publicity he's received along with rising poll numbers, they feel safe to throw their support behind the person they wanted to do all along anyway.

[pdxmom]

26. And he says that it's because Jesus wants him to be in the lead. I

thought we did away with a head of state who was anointed by God?
