Dishonest Huckabee Ran That Negative Anyway
Huckabee has made a lot of noise about qualifications to be President, and a lot of those qualifications have had to do with his history as a religious leader. In fact, his morality was a reason he gave when he said he’d decided not to run a negative ad against Mitt Romney.
But it turns out that Huckabee’s morality is somewhat suspect. Not only did he show the negative ad he pledged not to run to reporters, he also went ahead and ran it on television anyway.
Update, Jan. 4: The ad ran at least 10 times on four different stations in Davenport and Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The Huckabee campaign called those airings a mistake.
That’s not a mistake. Huckabee flat-out lied.
He’s a slick, manipulative politician and don’t let his “Baptist preacher/country bumpkin” routine fool you.
