Looks like the GOP may have finally crossed the line, what will they do if this Huckabee movement catches on. Some Huckabee supporters are encouraging Mike Huckabee to leave the Republican Party and start a new party. McCain and the GOP is about to lose their base. lol Looks like Obama wins. http://www.mccanes.com/newparty.html

I hope McCain takes note of articles like this. Hopefully maverick doesn't mean we'll get a pro-choice VP out of spite. Values centered voters won't back down.

Huckabee has already "caught on". The man is honest, principled, experienced and he is in touch with the people and has the right vision for America both as a uniter and to fix the problems the country is facing. Fair Tax, health care and education, as well as enforcing strong immigration guidelines and strong military. He has the answers AND the change the country needs. Huckabee 2012!!!!

I just blogged this article on www.jayperoni.com/blog It is amazing how liberal senator Obama is. Yet many values conscious voters are leaning toward Obama. Obama is for abortion in almost every circumstance, favors homosexual aka counterfeit marriage, is for higher taxes, and limiting free speech. I must be missing something. What specific accomplishments has Obama performed that would attract a values conscious voter? What personality or character traits would lead you to favor Obama over McCain. Just curious to find the logic.

Obama's stand on late term abortions shows that he has no moral values. Regardless of one's luke warmness to McCain, we must vote against Obama who will lead this nation totally in the wrong direction with his so-called "change".

A lot of politicians were pro-choice before they pretended not to be, particularly John McCain. George HW Bush campaigned against Reagan's 'Voo-Doo Economics' as pro-choice before he became the VP pick and was 'reprogrammed'. And say what you want about Huckabee, but he once witheld insurance payments to hundreds of flood victims in Arkansas because the wording in the insurance contract had the words 'Acts of God' as part of terms. He was so offended that those people waited months to receive what was due to them. Huckabee's house apparently was unharmed.

Take note, Senator McCain! The 40-70 million of us who think of themselves as Evangelicals (consisting of Lutherans,Catholics, Baptists, etc..)and encompass peoples of all color, have felt pushed aside and ignored far too long! We are conservatives but it would be a mistake to ignore our plea to you to choose a dynamic/charasmatic figure who has shown himself to be CONSISTENT in his call to protect the innocent and stand firm on the pro-life issue. We can see through the smoke-screen if you ignore us and choose someone who has conveniently changed to pro-life for political gain (Romney)or who is pro-choice. MIKE HUCKABEE is THE choice of a majority of Americans as noted in dozens of polls! We are poised and ready to bring a new level of intensity to your campaign by adding millions of man-hours and dollars to the cause! To choose to disregard our message would be a grave mistake and could very well cost you the election. McCain-Huckabee '08!!!!

As an orthodox Christian, I too am deeply troubled by the *choice* before us. That's why i've decided to support Chuck Baldwin and the Constitution Party .... www.constitutionparty.com

McCain is pro-life and Obama is hard-core pro-abortion and even worse as he endorses and has supported via votes the outright killing of infants that manage to slip thru the seam so to speak. How can Obama vote to kill a child that was not aborted simply because the woman wanted to abort the child (see his votes in the Illinois senate)? How can a doctor or anyone sit by and let a child die after birth simply because the doctor did not get his scissors inserted into the brain before the child slipped out? And how can anyone that is pro-life imply that they would abandon helpless children simply because of a VP pick? Does it clear your conscience and relieve your moral responsibilities? When Obama and the Democrats roll back the partial birth abortion ban I guess one can think "I'm sorry little babies that you have to die this way but that McCain picked the wrong VP so I sat out the election". How incredibly sad that one's strongest convictions can be so easily overcome. Would you pro-life people vote for Obama because he picked a pro-life VP?

McCain is pro-life? How convenient. He's also now against the war whenever he stands in front of a group that opposes the war. Or he's for the war he staunchly voted for when in front of a pro-war group. He used to be pro-choice. I recall the stories of how the Bush administration ridiculed the evangelical movement behind their backs, and pretended to be so pious when the climate called for it. Obama didn't sit in the senate when the vote was tabled, though he says he'd have voted against it. Hindsight is always the most accurate vote. I think they're all 'flexible' when courting your vote. And they're all millionairs who feel our pain as we work our butts off to make ends meet. Sure they do.

I wish i could have gone to the call it looks great and im so glad their doing it. Obama will kill our nation

Since he voted against the Born Alive Infants Protection Act, clearly Obama does NOT believe that human life even begins at birth, much less before birth. Not WRIGHT for America asks him a good question in light of Obama's vote on that law: when exactly does he believe human life does begin? 1 month of age? One year? Whenever the abortionist says?! www.notwrightforamerica.com

Hussein Obama, as a state senator, voted for a bill that would allow babies lucky enough to survive abortions to be placed on hospital beds to die. In a 2004, fundraising letter, Michelle Obama said that partial birth abortion is a legal medical procedure which must be protected. More recently, Obama said that he would not want his own daughter PUNISHED with an unwanted baby. No matter what he says now, Hussein Obama is a certified baby killer. A country that supports unrestricted killing of babies and men marrying men has hit bottom and cannot survive long. Our founders must be spinning in their graves.

Do I think Obama is a baby-killer? Yes. It's that simple. It's the truth. Read the record for yourself.

So who do we vote for if they're both pro-choice?

Question of the day

White House officials and Senate Democrats met in private three times last week to craft health care legislation. Do you think these discussions should be more public?
