It&#8217;s scary.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t care which candidate &quot;loves Jesus&quot; the most! We already know that Bush &quot;talks to Jesus,&quot; but what about the 100,000-plus innocent Iraqis who have died from his war?<\/p>\n<p>Would Jesus just sneer at them and turn away?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The first pundit to take Mike Huckabee seriously was Michael Medved, an Orthodox Jew. Medved&#8217;s rooting for John McCain to win the Republican nomination but he thinks Huckabee would be a fine choice. Dennis Prager finds Huckabee too sectarian.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/hughhewitt.townhall.com\/TalkRadio\/Show.aspx?RadioShowID=5&amp;ContentGuid=bfda9dcb-35da-4ba2-b6aa-2e2376694376\">Prager and Medved were on the fourth hour of Hugh Hewitt&#8217;s marathon radio show last night.<\/a> &quot;Nobody was knocked out,&quot; says Prager. &quot;If Huckabee did not win, he was out.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I don&#8217;t like identity politics,&quot; said Prager. &quot;I don&#8217;t like Obama playing up black identity and I don&#8217;t like Huckabee playing evangelical identity.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Medved: &quot;He did it on the strength of his performance in those televised debates. How did Huckabee end up in a different position than Tom Tancredo and Duncan Hunter? Because of his likable humorous winning consistently eloquent performance in the debates.&quot;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dennisprager.townhall.com\/TalkRadio\/Show.aspx?RadioShowID=3&amp;ContentGuid=678de1c5-0693-4f6b-9700-4efc8181b889\">Here&#8217;s Prager Friday morning.<\/a> He asks: &quot;When has there been unity and goodness?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Political analyst Arnold Steinberg said that if Romney was not a Mormon, he would&#8217;ve won in Iowa.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dennisprager.townhall.com\/blog\/\">From Prager&#8217;s blog<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>David Brooks: Iowa <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2008\/01\/04\/opinion\/04brooks.html?_r=1&amp;hp&amp;oref=slogin\">turns out to be big<\/a>, especially for Obama.<\/p>\n<p>Dennis Prager and the Dog Whisperer on YouTube.
