Nearly 50 years in east Alabama, a surname going back to Vikings invading Scotland, and finally too much religious fundamentalism coupled to reactionary radicalism motivates me. I'll share (rarely as of late) my ideas on politics, learning, ... My clan supposedly uses "Peace ... or War!" Maybe those genes compel me to join issue? (Propservralism = PRogressivism + pOPulism + conSERVatism + libeRAL + pragmatISM) Respectfully, John Gunn

Highlander of the Day ~ Mike Huckabee
David Sirota and then Eli via FireDogLake have much to offer on the GOP's reactions to the Huckster. I've gone after Mike Huckabee, mostly for putting the fun back in fundamentalism, yet I've also admitted I sorta kinda like the guy. Many of his policies, especially that foolishness know as the "flat tax", are flawed in my view. David and Eli nail the fact the GOP is terrified that their "flyover strategy" of tricking many evangelicals and "values voters" into voting for the corporate candidate is about to get derailed. Then again, the fat cats can always fall back on Obama and Hillary should Mitt or perhaps even St. John McCain not be able to handle Huck. P/W
