"I got to know Governor Huckabee well on the campaign trail," said Hunter. "Of the remaining candidates I feel that he is strongly committed to strengthening national defense, constructing the border fence and meeting the challenge of China's emergence as a military superpower that is taking large portions of America‚s industrial base."
"Along with these issues of national security, border enforcement and protecting the U.S. industrial base, I see another quality of Mike Huckabee's candidacy that compels my endorsement. Mike Huckabee is a man of outstanding character and integrity. I saw that character over the last year of campaigning and was greatly impressed. The other Republican candidates have many strengths and I wish them all well. My personal choice is Mike Huckabee," Hunter concluded.
I am at a loss. Severely disillusioned and incomprehensibly disappointed. I personally disavow such an awful endorsement. God preserve us from politicians and their pandering deals!
Wonder what they are serving on the campain trail. I'm still staying with Mitt. I'm going to watch him, I dont trust anyone completly right now but I trust him much more than anyone else.
Silverhorse said: I don't know what to think now! Hunter was my first choice and is definitely the man on border control. Guess I'll have to respect the man's decision.
Instead of respecting his decision why don't you look at it realistically? Hunter is a politician first, he is pandering, he is posturing for VP if, God forbid, Huckabee should become UGH president.
He said he got to know Huckabee on the campaign trail. Too bad he didn't research his record as governor. All liberal except for his position on abortion. Shame on Hunter.
Ugh says it all. I agree with all the posts on this page. I guess those backroom deals come with the carrot of a VP or cabinet spot. What tripe! I STILL will never vote for McCain.
Our children and grandchildren are depending on what we do right now!
