Mike Huckabee and John McCain are cut from the same cloth--the neo (read: faux) conservative kind that supports big-government solutions to issues that face the country. Huckabee's speech the other day blasting the libertarian wing of the Republican Party was a disgrace. He is a poor heir to the Reagan/Goldwater legacy of small government, and John McCain is not much different in that regard.
Bob Barr reacted quickly to Huckabee's remarks: "This is why I am running for President: to provide an alternative to the big spending, big government advocates representing the Republican and Democratic parties. My goal is to roll back the size of government and allow Americans as individuals, families, associations, and communities to step forward as they have throughout U.S. history.”
