Conservatives Against Huckabee

Jeff Fuller from "Iowans for Romney" has made this post that reveals just how many conservatives are united against Huckabee. The following is taken directly from Jeff Fuller:

"I altered the date on this post to keep it at the top of the blog entries until caucus day (by popular demand)Huckabee and his supporters always seem to point out that Romney's attacking him.

"The already nascent Huck-a-bust will undoubtedly be blamed on Romney by Huck and his supporters. However . . . I don't think that Romney had anything to do with the fact that essentially every conservative with a microphone or blog has been railing against Huckabee for the last few weeks. Need some evidence?:
Rush Limbaugh
Condoleezza Rice
Michelle Malkin
Ann Coulter (new one here)

for homeschoolers who support Huck)

too on a TV news show)

"reconciliation" ---- but then he's still not too impressed)
Donald Lambro
David Limbaugh (another here)
Michael Barone
Mark Steyn
Kim Strassell

John Fund (an interesting video here)

The Club for Growth
The Cato Institute (Huckabee's F grade for fiscal issue . . . 46th out of the 50
governors ranked. Yes, that's worse than the vast majority of Democratic
governors!--PDF here)
Mitt Romney :)
Ron Paul :)
Fred Thompson :)
Rudy Giuliani :)
"You can just hear and feel all of these conservative/GOP icons pleading with the voters: "PLEASE DON'T MAKE US TRY TO DEFEND THIS GUY!!!" (should he be the nominee).Conclusion: Huckabee's not a full-spectrum conservative and the GOP would be unwise to give him the nomination. Romney has had to point out the un-conservative spots in Huck's record because the MSM/DNC axis sure hasn't been (they want him as the GOP nominee) and because McCain and Rudy want Huck to win Iowa to stifle Romney's path to the nomination. However, Romney is hardly alone in pointing out Huckabee's worrisome record.Update: This post has attracted some attention! Hugh Hewitt's Townhall.com blog linked to my cross-posting over at MyManMitt. Also, Quin Hillyer's recent article "The Republican Party: All Hucked Up" contains a list that is interestingly familiar to mine."
