Mike Huckabee: Playing Both Sides of the Pulpit
The candidate says he wants to unite the country. But in a 1998 book, Huckabee was a fierce culture warrior, equating environmentalism with pornography, homosexuality with necrophilia, and nonbelievers with evildoers. by David Corn

Thought you guys might like to know what the campaigns are doing here in the Great Land (that’s Alaska, for you Lower 48ers). Short version: they ain’t doin much…
There’s a short snip at the end of the “Romney gets tearful” article that I think is interesting.
Romney’s appearance at Insight veered off course when an attendee asked Romney why a woman — who turned out to be from the anti-war American Friends Service Committee — had been thrown out while distributing cards with a series of questions. The attendee asked if organizers considered such questions “toxic material.”
Romney replied, “There is nothing that’s toxic to me; I was on `Meet the Press’ yesterday, for Pete’s sake.” He then grabbed the card and answered a series of questions, which focused on the Iraq war and alternate uses for the money being spent in the battle.
I’m convinced every campaign has overzealous staffers that feel compelled to remove “undesirables.” I don’t know anything about the woman in question, she may have been threatening some stupid outburst, or whatever. It’s nice to see a candidate do more than just apologize long after someone’s been removed, but actually take whatever their pet issue or questions were and respond to it.
