"If we are so politically correct in this country that a person can't say enough of the nonsense with the political attack ads could we pause for a few days and say Merry Christmas to each other then we're really, really in trouble as a country," Huckabee said.

Translation: If I actually have to withstand the scrutiny of other candidates and the media during the run-up to the caucus my preening, endlessly self-congratulatory campaign for the presidency might really, really be in trouble.

If a pause in campaigning means I won't have to listen to this sort of gag-inducing I'm not campaigning! campaigning I'm all for it.
