It looks obvious

One of the strongest points in Taliban Mike’s campaign, along with being a fundamentalist and paternalist, was his integrity. But while you can explain opinion changes in changes that are relevant it is harder to accept this explanation as valid reason for flip-flopping:

"What changed was I’m running for president."
– Mike Huckabee, on why he changed his position on Cuba, "Hannity & Colmes," FNC, 12/10.

So it seems that we can take integrity out of the list as well. Yup, he is a perfect GOP candidate…

I guess we will see more and more of this sort:

Here’s part of the text of a Southern Baptist Convention full-page ad in USA Today in 1998 that Mike Huckabee signed:

"A wife is to submit herself graciously to the servant leadership of her husband even as the church willingly submits to the headship of Christ."

This should not be surprising, and it demonstrates, yet again, how little is the difference between Huckabee, and his sort, and the Middle East fundamentalists he so eagerly want to defend us from. my wife had put it in a slightly different context:

“Of course this is just the sort of thirst for a fantasy existence that makes adult men hide in their basements pretending to be Luke Skywalker, or Frodo or whatever.”
