I'm listening to Hardball (something I rarely do) as I work on my transcription. So far, Mr. Matthews has struck at Huckabee, Clinton, and Edwards, while mentioning his amazement that McCain is holding up the rear and is "an alternative" to Huckabee.

I'm waiting for him, in the next twenty minutes, to say something bad about Obama or McCain. Because, otherwise, he will have made his bias plain.

tweety is ok, I mean, I like any host who is his own man, and not just a pawn of the republican echo chamber, but he does get these man-crushes, which are kind of funny. He gets all doe-eyed when he finds men that are manly men who do manly things. Obama is a manly man, maybe partly because he smokes cigarettes. tweety also of course has a crush on giuliani, who plays the posing sort of macho, and mccain, who has a war vet is definitely a macho guy that pushes tweety's button.

Huckabee shows too much of his female side when he talks about caring for the poor and unfortunate, edwards way too poofy, clinton is a woman.

The bias is not what you think, perhaps. You put a manly man who smokes a manly cigarette or poses in a manly fashion next to manly firemen, well, it just makes chris matthews weak in the knees.

Obama? Manly Man??

I'm merely explaining how Chris Matthews' mind works. I don't have a good explanation for why it works that way.

Yes, support a man who released a rapist who went out to kill a woman.

And your journal. Sock puppet much?

Mr. Huckabee offers a reasonable explanation for the consideration he gave, and one, frankly that rings true: It would have been very easy for him to put his political career first, and simply say "no." But, he made an earnest attempt to give due consideration. Okay, he made a mistake. (And you know that he's not happy about the outcome.)

When you compare Huckabee to Obama - in terms of maturity and expertise, Huckabee stands head and shoulders above Obama who - talent and all - is still much of a political idealist and upstart.

And, as far as "manly," goes, I'd consider a hunter more of the manly man type (yes, I know, not as "romantic" as the cig gigg ), wouldn't you?

Increasingly, Mike Huckabee has the look of leadership (http://snipr.com/leaderlook).
