Nooooooo! Huckabee Reconsidering 2012 Presidential Bid…

Didn’t we already dodge this bullet?

(Reuters) — Mike Huckabee has been approached by Republican and conservative activists unhappy with the current crop of presidential hopefuls and he is considering entering the fray, two sources who have spoken with Huckabee told Reuters.

The former Arkansas governor, who made a splash by winning the Iowa caucuses as a candidate in 2008, announced last May on his Fox News show that he would not enter the race.

But the conservative Huckabee, who appeals to evangelical Christians and is seen as an effective campaigner, is taking another look at jumping in, said the two sources, who are close to Huckabee. They spoke to Reuters on the condition of anonymity.

“He is entertaining the request for conversations about it,” one of the sources said. “I do not think it is a complete 100 percent ‘I’m reconsidering’ but he hasn’t shut the door on it.”

One of the sources said Huckabee was urged to enter after the recent stumbles of Texas Governor Rick Perry, who appeals to a similar right wing of the Republican party.

    The only moron with even less of chance of ever being president than Ron Paul. Go away, Huckster and just be glad you at least have a tv show to keep your hick fans happy.

    Dude, your name is Huck-a-bee. I can’t believe you attempted to run the first time!

    How many times do Republicans need to be called “backward-ass farm-town hicks” before it starts to become annoying? And do you think those same people who are sick of that stereotype are going to nominate a guy named HUCKABEE?

    Idiot. Go away.

    The Establishment apparently does not want the outsider Cain to spoil all their plans.

    the Huckster will be out of the race… before he’s in it

  22. TimT says:
    September 30, 2011 at 4:16 pm

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I didn’t like him the first time around, and I won’t like him anymore this time. Plus, I wish people would STFU about Christie. There is just too many things about him that once he gets in the race will bring him down like Perry – immigration, 2nd Amendment are just a couple off the top of my head. We got a winner in the Herminator – yes sir.

    Huckabee Reconsidering 2012 Presidential Bid…
    As sure a sign, as any, RINO’s are getting desperate.

  31. hoodaticus says:
    September 30, 2011 at 5:31 pm

    I have a question for Huckabee:

    Jesus said that a house divided against itself cannot stand. What do you think Jesus would say about your fiscal liberalism in a fiscally-conservative party?

  32. hoodaticus says:
    September 30, 2011 at 5:33 pm

    @Teacake

    Cain is a former federal reserve member. In what way is he outside the establishment?

  33. Outlaw6538 says:
    September 30, 2011 at 5:34 pm

    Huckabee’s own wife wouldn’t vote for him.

  34. Outlaw6538 says:
    September 30, 2011 at 5:36 pm

    Tru dat, hoodaticus.

  35. 24Klady says:

    Perhaps his ratings are down? Needs a little excitement to gin up more viewing.

  39. sheepdog says:

    I don’t like him at all !

  40. Axel says:
    September 30, 2011 at 6:35 pm

    How embarrassing the republitards got nothing in the most critical time in our history.

    I thought people were poor, where are the campaign dollars for so many candidates coming from?
    I certainly hope not in $3 emails.

  41. DACISME says:
    September 30, 2011 at 6:38 pm

    Be careful, if he sets a deadline and doesn’t follow it he’ll be mocked by Erick Ericson at Redstate.com.

  42. ER says:
    September 30, 2011 at 6:44 pm

    Don’t like him, but admit he’s good on 2 things: (1) would be only candidate to explicitly (& repeatedly) state opposition to a 2-state solution that would give up Israeli land, and (2) fair tax. That said, his entry would torpedo nomination for either Cain or Huckabee himself. Better if he just stuck to supporting Cain.

  43. Don Fulano says:
    September 30, 2011 at 7:13 pm

    Huckabee= John McCain without the war hero cred.

    The RINOs are getting desperate.

    Let him enter the race. He can keep Huntsman company…..
