The above (genuine) quote from Mr Huckabee makes me wonder if he's involved in a really clever post-modern joke about how people will swallow any old shit in electoral politics. Either that or he's as thick as the rest of us.

Yeh, it'll be pretty shite if he were to actually get into power.
Thing is though, will the voting public in the states be stupid enough to vote for him because the opposition is black?

He is a total lunatic, but it's not beyond the realms of possibility that he could get the Reps nomination: Giuliani's practically a pinko communist, McCain is the Spain of American politics (looks like he should do well but never does), and Romney's a Mormon.
Surely (piss off, Semp), though, if he did get it even McCain and Giuliani would back the Democratic nominee. Surely? (Piss off, Semp.)

Good old America, the home of democracy - born-again crazies letting an imaginary man in the sky run the country on one hand, and oligarchs leaving the place in the charge of money-hungry PR strategists and power-mad militarists on the other. I wonder how Kucinich is getting on this year...
