Hell, most Kansans would welcome him with open arms and elect him Supreme Leader for Life

No, Huckabee can't evolve. He receives god's approval.

All people in Kansas are stupid assholes. All of them. The ones that let Huckabee supporters live are just as bad as the Huckabee supporters.

Huckabee... I choose you!

god created him as a strong candidate from the start

Fair enough.

Huckabee designed his Kansas campaign very intelligently.

Winning Kansas? Isn't that like winning a key chain when your friend wins a new car?

 
theurge14 2008-02-09 08:00:53 PM  
Irrelevant. Obama won the Democratic race here a few days earlier.

I figure Huckabee's selection is pretty natural for Kansas.

Michael Beasley would win either primary in this state.

As he should.

Apparently, McCain could not adapt and did not have the traits needed to win.

 
Clonod 2008-02-09 08:06:43 PM  
Kansans clearly believe the caucus is not vestigial and has a purpose as intended by God.

Beating Hillary in Kansas is kind of like winning a gold medal at the Special Olympics, isn't it?

It only took 6,000 years to evolve that perfect headline.

Rational folks? Not in Kansas anymore!

Kansas: Origin of Feces.

Carry on, you wayward sons of biatches!

What you don't seem to understand here is that Huckabee is a puddle... Or maybe Kansas is the puddle, and Huckabee is adapting to fit its shape... Or Huckabee is a banana, and Kansas is a jar of peanut butter, and... Excuse me, I'm going to get something to eat.

You can come in and kill as many of us as you're able, but then we'll own your ass in basketball for all eternity. It's a faustian deal.

Depends on wot you beat her with. A rubber hose packed with sand is a silver. Beating her over the head with Karl Rove's dirty politics playbook is wot it takes to get the gold.

Huckabee is my horse in this race. Read chapter 1 of Genesis.....

Great headline, subby!

Can we get a photoshop veteran to put Huckabee's face on a pro wrestler's body yelling: "SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST!" or sumthin like that?

that would make my day :)

Durrr... I've never been anywhere west of the Ohio River, but I'm gonna go ahead and talk out of my ass anyways.

Food for Thought for the Ignorati:

- Kansas never "banned" the teaching of evolution. They briefly took it off the state proficiency exams, but all of the board members that made that decision have been kicked out.
- Huckabee campaigned heavily there the last couple of days, and McCain didn't. This really shouldn't come as a surprise- if you want someone's vote, you have to go earn it.
- As already mentioned, Kansas supported Obama stronger than any other primary or caucus up to this point with record breaking turnouts.
- Kansas has a Democrat governor in her second term and is on a short list of VP candidates, and half of the state's representatives are also democrats.

/You may now proceed with your misinformed snark fest.

 
vlakorados 2008-02-09 08:18:29 PM  
You feed Huckabee some Kansas.

Huckabee became Huckabumble!

/it's super effective!

/Did I misinterpret the "evolve" headline?

 
oldsbone [TotalFark] 2008-02-09 08:20:36 PM  
As a Christian, I am actively hoping Huckabee doesn't win. Don't give me any of this "God's man for the job!" nonsense. No religion does well when it's in bed with the government (see also: Islamic Sudan, Spanish Inquisition, Roman persecution of Christians...you get the point). Too many people rise to positions of power in the church/state that are complete and utter hypocrites looking for a piece of the action. It's hard to convince people you're not an asshat when the people in charge claim the same faith and are asshats.

/It's also hard for moderate members of the religion to avoid slowly evolving into asshats when the people who are their leaders keep telling them it's okay to be asshats (saying the other guys are the ones who are evil, it's okay to hate them)
//It's also hard to type with a band-aid on my finger...meh.
///Speaking of evolve, the headline made me snerk.

There's actually a town called Liberal, Kansas. That gave me a good giggle when I found that out.
