I like Huck:-)Huck for VP!!!

McCain/Huckabee 2008!!!

That was just stupid. If somebody aimed a gun at anybody they would duck too. I suppose somehow it was to imply Obama was scaredy-cat but as stated Huckleberry looks like an idiot. How was that appropriate or even funny? I didn't think he was mean but there is mean-intent in it?

You know, Huckabee is a very likeable, friendly kind of guy. Reminds me of an insurance agent.

If he wasn't so conservative, I could easily work/vote for him.

Then he does something like this to prove what an idiot he is. We only have to look back to 1968, when we lost both Martin Luther King, Jr. and a very promising presidential candidate, Robert F. Kennedy, to think of how easily things can change. Imagine how different the 70s would have been with RFK as President!

I certainly hope Mr. Huckabee apologizes for this ASAP, and vows to never again utter such words. In the meantime, McBush should distance himself from Mr. Huckabee. Though I must admit that I'd expected to hear this kind of thing from McBush.

This has to be taken very seriously. The assassination of any political leader is something we should deplore and work hard to prevent rather than encourage as Mr. Huckabee did today.

Obama 2008 -- Yes, WE CAN!!!

Huckabee should not only apologize, but also turn down any possible offer of VP slot after this preposterous remark!

Oh, and resign as pastor of a church that preaches loving one's enemies...

It almost seems like everyone should apologize but Obama. A joke is a joke and Huckabee can make all the jokes he pleases. Didn't the Obamabots call Hillary all kinds of names? Who was calling for apologies then? Obama is not above anything infact he has nothing on his resume other than winning caucuses and superdelegates to give him that special status. There is no need for Huckabee to apologize

A slot at the bottom of the ticket, how appropriate, the bottom is where both he and McBush belong.

Not to funny Huck you of all people should know better that is a childs prank......

I felt Huckabee was the most honest and forthright of all the Repub candidates. I really liked him. But joking around about shooting a presidential candidate, from the other party, the first black candidate in history, in front of the NRA is criminal, not to mention sinful. As a preacher, He has to know that God is not smiling.

No, BO would not take the dive, he just gets behind his staff as usual.

Huck has always been quick with the jokes, after all, he is one.

Obama should shove that comment down the repig's throats
Obama should use video footage of his daughters and Michelle, then play the sick twisted voice over of Huckabigot.
Republicans own your label..MEAN SPIRITED!

This is not a joke. If this was said about a sitting President, he would already have been arrested, this type of humor has no place in politics today. Huckleberry is finished.

This is outrageous coming from a man of God and for him to think this was a joke. Unbelievable. In this political climate this is unconscionable.

It was a tasteless joke. Not even funny to me. I could see how a gun totin' bigot would think it was funny.

Voter,

I really hope you're not as stupid as your comment portends. Huckabee's "joke" was way eerie. There's a huge difference between harmless campaign-trail humor and what Huck said today. Furthermore, he made the entire NRA look like the bunch of redneck, socially inept retards that they're stereotyped as being.

I think it is true in a way. Obama tried to hide behind Hillary during debates, he tried to hide behind MO, he tried hiding behind Wright first and then also tried hiding behind Bill Clinton. There is no originality in this guy. Including the Hamas comment that he took from Carter. Huckabee is a lot of fun and can keep you laughing. Instead Obama's comments about meeting Hamas should be taken more seriously.

Very Christian of you, Huck.

It is never funny to joke about guns and presidential candidates. Poor taste doesn't even begin to describe this.

To defend it is also fairly outrageous. I am frankly more disgusted with the people posting in here who think it was in any way appropriate or even remotely funny.

With the nuts cases that the US breeds, no politician should make a joke or otherwise about shooting a presidential candidate.

Talk about reckless.

Huckabigot just cut his own political throat, he won't ever be given a VP or cabinet position, or TV commentator, or speaking tour.
What a fitting outcome for a dumpy little squirrel munching bible thumper who advocated putting people with AIDS in CAMPS,

karma is a b*tch...Huck
