The End is Near?
Huckabee's running out of money.
In brief conversation with Huckabee's press secretary, Alice Stewart, NBC confirmed that there are some members of Huckabee's senior staff that have volunteered to continue working without pay in the run up to February 5th. Stewart said that some senior staffers along with several staff members who worked for Huckabee in early primary states have voluntarily offered to work for free so that the campaign can save money.Good.
Mike Huckabee has run one of the most divisive political campaigns in recent memory, actively setting factions of the Republican coalition against one another, and engaging in rhetoric that threatens to annoy a loyal part of the Republican base. His popularity has been as surprising as it is disheartening. Up to this point, I had no idea identity politics and class warfare were so popular with GOP voters.
I'll be glad to see him go, and sincerely hope he has no future whatsoever in GOP politics.
