Mike Huckabee: Nothing Says Conservative Like Lindsey Graham

Keep an eye on this one.  Mike Huckabee is making ads supporting Lindsey Graham for a Karl Rove, or Rove-like front group calling itself conservative. Huckabee has also made some noise about running for President in 2016. In essence, Rove and other establishment Republicans may end up recruiting him in 2016 to split off some number of social cons in hopes of preventing a more conservative Republican candidate from winning the nomination in 2016.

The latest TV ad from the South Carolina Conservative Action Alliance featuring former Governor Mike Huckabee thanking Senator Lindsey Graham for his leadership on national defense and for being a “conservative champion of peace through strength.”

You can buy a lot of endorsements with 7 million and a lot of ads.

OK! MIke Huckabee is DEFINITELY off the list of possible GOP presidential candidates now!  (He really was already but he just keeps piling on more reasons to not consider him)

He's always reminded me of the preacher Andy Griffith played in a movie back in the 50s.

I'm so sick of all these retreads! 
Mike Huckabee?  Lindsey Graham?  I can't think of one single thing to get excited about from either one of them.
