-- Mike Huckabee, in an interview on Radio Iowa, complaining that "many of the Republicans are more interested in just defeating Barack Obama than they are in rebuilding America."

met with, maybe was interviewed by Huckabee and it was a very good and informative talk. Huck later stated how impressed he was with Obama and what a nice person he was. I remember heads exploded on the right over that one. It was great.

Does Huckabee still have his gig at FOX? If so, I predict a campaign to get him canned.
