Giuliani, Huckabee Emerge as Strange GOP Bedfellows

Submitted by JT, Nov 27, 2007 19:04

Anyone who says Mike Huckabee isn't attacking Rudy because he's such a nice guy has got to be kidding! This is politics folks—they have made an alliance with one goal at this point—take out Romney!!! You have got to take off the rose colored glasses and realize this is about posturing and nothing else. Huckabee hopes an early win will propel him, Giuliani hopes Huckabee take Romney out to stop his potential momentum from winning all the early states. That's IT! These two are polar opposites on the Republican spectrum on everything except immigration. If things get too close between them poll wise—the sparks will surely fly. Right now Giuliani sees no threat in Huckabee and Huckabee sees Giuliani supporters as a proxy way to boost his numbers and defeat Romney. At this stage—a vote for Huckabee is a vote for Giuliani. No one knows how this will turn out, but that's the way it is today...
