George Will Takes Aim at Huckabee
Finally, someone willing to call a RINO a RINO:
Huckabee’s campaign actually is what Rudy Giuliani’s candidacy is misdescribed as being – a comprehensive apostasy against core Republican beliefs. Giuliani departs from recent Republican stances regarding two issues – abortion and the recognition by the law of same-sex couples. Huckabee’s radical candidacy broadly repudiates core Republican policies such as free trade, low taxes, the essential legitimacy of America’s corporate entities and the market system allocating wealth and opportunity. . . .
Huckabee’s role in this year’s ’70s Show is not merely to attempt to revise a few Republican beliefs. He represents wholesale repudiation of what came after the 1970s – Reaganism.
Power Line concedes that there is "some truth" to Will’s words, but Ramesh Ponnuru (writing on NRO’s the corner) steps it up when he brings up another issue on which both Huckabee and Giuliani depart from conservative citizens: guns.
Yet another reason I continue to support Fred Dalton Thompson.
