Level up: 53%, 72 Points needed | | And why wouldn't he???? Why is it news everytime Huckabee goes after his base?????
Do we need a headline everytime Hillary goes after feminists or liberals??
Or a headline everytime Obama goes after blacks or liberals?
What is the problem with Huckabee appealing to his base???? Or for that matter why is it news, isn't this what the primaries are all about. This is another bit of non-fracking news.

dmk | The media, it seems, will do everything it can to avoid reporting the issues.

| Haha, well, it is nice to agree on something for a change. Usually I find myself in the minority on practically all accounts.
