Huckabee Clarifies His 2012 Remarks — Sort of

Will he or won’t he? Many politicos question whether or not former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee will make a run for the presidency in 2012. But, his decision’s already been made, right? Well, sort of.

A few weeks ago, Huckabee took to his FOX News show to dispel rumors and to put speculation about a potential 2012 run to rest. He made it clear that he has no plans to jump into the ring saying, ”…my heart says no. And that’s the decision I have made.”

But, then, in a speech that followed, Huckabee said, ”I’m not going to say…under no circumstances ever, never, never [will I run]…whether it’s next year or four years from now.” So, does this mean he’s changed his mind? Below, watch his response to this burning question:

    That is the first time I have seen a politician make a fist like a man in along time. Maybe he is serious?

    Talk about inconsistencies! He just said not too long ago that he wasn’t running. Could it be that Mitt Romney’s upcoming numbers in the poll made him change his mind. I personally think he should stay out of the race. He’s a very nice man and appears to be a good preacher, however, I don’t think he has enough experience to be president during these critical times.

    Just go away, PLEASE, Huck your last week’s blue plate special. Besides if you think you were such a great gov. then why did you get voted out of office. You’ll never run for President and you know why, because the puppeteers have already picked Palin to be the proverbial lead dog.

      Wrong! The puppeteers HATE Palin so bad because she doesn’t HAVE strings attached to her arms and legs like Huckabee does. They can’t control her so they want to go back to the days when Huckabee was leading in the polls. He did a Gingrich. He is out.

Its what he and Mc Canin did to Mitt…..we must make our votes count, we must get Obama out….we cannot have a divided country again….we cannot take 4 more years of Obama, period. Stay out Huckabee, please for outr countries sake…the media is playing games with these polls…and you know it.

Someone send him a nickel with a note that says “Here now buy yourself a clue” He is a RINO like the majority of “republicans” out there. Go ahead Huck change your mind and run, the economy needs the money you are sitting on! Huckabore cannot win and isnt the one we are looking for.
