I could probably vote for him in the general election. It is actually Congress that passes legislation and apportions spending and the most the President does is push it through. I am more concerned about the types of judges he would appoint and what legislation he would choose to veto. I find him light on crime. He gets the evangelical support because many of them agree with him.

I am an evangelical and I view Rick Warren as nothing less than a false teacher and Huckabee as a repackaged, ordained Bill Clinton. The Washington Post’s labeling of evangelicals some years back as “easily led” seems to have been almost prophetic. Huckabee claims he is pro-life, but he is also (based on his RECORD — not his easily
-forgotten campaign promises) pro-tax, pro-illegal immigration, pro-Big Government. Anyone who favors FEDERAL legislation banning smoking in the workplace is an anti-tobacco fanatic. Many liberals are anti-tobacco; many great saints smoked. Admit it, people — there is NOTHING in the Scriptures condemning tobacco any more than there are passages condemning Pepsi-Cola. Can tobacco (or Pepsi) be abused? Certainly. Is this a problem the Big Government can cure with legislation and anti-smoking police? To ask such a question is to answer it.

If he’s elected he’ll just be another George W. Bush, without the tax cuts (he’s even expressed some explicit anti-rich sentiment). Personally, I’m tired of having socially conservative Democrats masquerading as Republicans.
