Huck Chucks Up

How, in the Lord's name, can ANYbody, much less an experienced politician, say something as incredibly crass and stupid as Mike Huckabee said today about Barack Obama?
I rest my case that Mike Huckabee is not a man Republicans or conservatives should want to have ANYthing to do with.
If McCain picks him for Veep -- which is much less likely now -- I repate that every good conservative ought to actively oppose the ticket.
Meanwhile, and more important, our prayers go out to Sen. Obama, because this is the sort of thing that gets haters riled up. Nobody deserves to have "jokes" such as these told about him. This is serious stuff, and Huck owes (and will probably give) a huge apology to the senator from Illinois.
