GOP debate and Huckmania

Looking forward to the Republican debate today because it's the last chance for the candidates to get in shots, and with Iowa under the ice storm, viewership, where there's power, should be pretty high. (Also: We get Alan Keyes in this debate, too.)

Two more Huckabee thoughts. 1) Yesterday he received the endorsement of Jim Gilchrist, the founder of the border group the minutemen. Admittedly, Gilchrist has been chased out of the group for financial irregularities, but the endorsement still helps Huckabee build a firewall against Romney's immigration charges.

But all I keep thinking is what must Huckabee have promised to get that endorsement?

2) I understand why he's doing it, but doesn't it smell a little funny that Huckabee and his former churches have clamped down and refused to release any of his sermons?

3) I feel obligated to mention Huckabee's gratuitous "Don't Mormons believe that Jesus and the devil are brothers?"

(Also, this is pretty damn funny.)

    Pretty funny parody.

  • Earlier in the campaign, he was the one who I thought would draw all the scoffs.
