After reading all the posts about Huck's Army's renewed hatred of us, I had a few thoughts.
I love that the two candidates can, in several ways, be mirrored in their respective grassroots on-line communities. Huck's Army is banning people and closing down threads left and right. Being polite seems to be more important to the folks over there than getting to the meat of any issue. As a result, their community remains relatively small, with most posts by just a few people. When someone over there tries to get creative, their ideas are picked apart and hammered to death and the few energetic souls are told why the idea won't work. They love to complain about how mean other people are to them, particularly RP supporters.
Meanwhile, back at the RP grassroots, liberty is king. We have thousands of members, with hundreds on-line at any one time exchanging ideas at the speed of lightning. Yes, some of us are a bit rude, and some of us use language that others find objectionable, but at the end of the day, we work it out for ourselves. We come up with great ideas and we get things done. We do things that no one on the outside would have believed possible. We are what a Ron Paul presidency would look like.
As a Christian, I emphatically state that I will NEVER vote for Huckabee, under ANY circumstances. That man is the worst kind of hypocrite.
Edit: Actually, even calling their effort over there a major grassroots community is kind of silly. Forgive me if I was too generous in my characterization.
