This wouldn’t be the first time Huckabee ran into ethics issues. As governor of Arkansas, Huckabee, according to the Associated Press, faced 14 separate ethics complaints against him and his administration, with five resulting in findings that he violated ethics guidelines.
“Sometimes operations just don’t change,” says a paid consultant for a rival campaign to Huckabee’s. “When you’re desperate enough for support, you’ll cut corners. That appears to be what Huckabee’s campaign has done in this case. Going back to his time as governor, he appears willing to cut corners.”
A staffer for the Huckabee campaign denied that it had ever seen the HSLDA materials or approved them. “This is complete surprise to us, we had no coordination whatsoever,” says the source.
