: Expressio UniusHuckabee Wins West Virgina; Romney Whines
By wt
But Mitt Romney whined that John McCain's voters, once their candidate looked like he wasn't viable, went to Mike Huckabee.
"Governor Romney had enough respect for the Republican voters of West Virginia to make an appeal to them about the future of the party based on issues. This is why he led on today's first ballot.Sadly, Senator McCain cut a Washington backroom deal in a way that once again underscores his legacy of working against Republicans who are interested in championing conservative policies and rebuilding the party."
Wow. If the Romney camp has evidence of a "backroom deal" between John McCain and Mike Huckabee, they need to come out with it immediately.
Huckabee got McCain's votes and the delegates of the State of West Virginia. But what did Huckabee promise to McCain?
Not to attack him in other states? To compliment him on the rest of the trail? To serve as his Vice-President if asked?
Whatever Huckabee offered to McCain, it needs to come out from the Romney camp.
And it needs to be made clear how this deal was formed. In a backroom, apparently, but where? By McCain himself, or his surrogates?
As it is, the charge is very potent, and the Romney camp should probably reveal what it's found out.
And, uh, dude. You've been calling McCain a liberal and railing against him for a week. You think his supporters were going to run toward you as their second choice?
Lame.

I don't really hate him, although I'm not as enamored with him as others; I find him glib, smarmy and a increasingly catty. That said, this is not a great start for Romney on this Super Tuesday...
"We're still on our feet, and much to the amazement of many, we're getting there, folks, we're getting there."
Huckabee reemerges.He won the South. Did he win it because of something about the South, or because he has so little money that he had to concentrate it somewhere?Ed Rollins, Huckabee's chief political strategist, said he would be astonished if Huckabee has spent more than $10 million on his candidacy...

Huckabee Girl
There has been Obama Girl, Giuliani Girl and even the Romney Girls, but the sharpest and most critical of this genre would have to be the Huckbee Girl. As The Daily Tube says, "With skimpy skivvies and a surprisingly catchy tune, Huckabee Girl delivers a ringing lampooning of the erstwhile...

First take: Mike Huckabee, referring not very obliquely to Mitt Romney, in the single most brutal, deft, and insincere negative campaigning one-liner of the 2008 GOP presidential primaries: On "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" Wednesday night, Huckabee said that voters are looking for a presidential candidate who "reminds them more of the guy they work with rather than the...
