Sorry if this was already posted.
 
With regard to his appearance on Jay Leno: "Huckabee appeared confused by the picket line today and said he believed the writers had made an agreement to allow the shows to return to the air."

Man, it really seems like Huckabee is prone to being mis-informed. It also makes me wonder whether or not he would have done this interview had he known he would be crossing the picket line, since all the pundits seemed to have agreed it was probably a bad move on his part to leave Iowa.
 
I have to wonder why they're finally including RP all of a sudden. The theory that it's to cover their asses sounds likely to me.

He knew that picket line was there.

There were stories about it all day.:rolleyes:
 
they couldn't find a better pic to use? Not tht the huckabee one is any better..
 
McCain's either trying to push one out, or he's contemplating all that debt that he'll be stuck with when he drops out after Super Tuesday.

McCain - I knew it. It was all media hype for me in the last couple of weeks.

Huckabee - I be damned. I never saw that Ron Paul crusade coming. Hey Jesus!? Has cannabis not been banned yet in your neck of the universe? I'll be up there in a minute. I gotta run some hot water in the tub first.

Ron Paul *Laughing Insanely* - When I ran for Congress I bet I wouldn't bet anything I could of been elected to Congress.

Romney *dazed* - Sir. If it was going to be anyone but me, I was hoping it was you. *shakes Ron's hand* You stood up for me that one time, remember? How 'bout that VP position?

Stephanopoulos - That's not gunna happen.

Covering their asses in case of strong showing? YES 100%

The theory implied by some that some secret memo went out b/c the elite and networks and said "cover your asses"? NO 100%
 
are we top tier now then ?

I doubt McCain will be much of a factor, i'll be surprised if he does well, just wondering how big a factor the establishment newspaper endorsements will be

Of course he knew. He's used this "I didn't know" line one time too many.
