If it comes down to Huckabee versus Clinton, wouldn't that be the dirtiest possible match up?

Question

By "dirty" I mean both would stoop to the lowest levels imaginable to win the White House. Hillary has shown her self to be a two faced hypocrite, and Huckabee is pandering to the deluded Christian Right and telling them everything they want to hear.
They both make me sick.
Can you think of a worse matchup ? Please give reasons for your answers. I could be wrong. Convince me, and I'll give you a Best Answer.

Answer 1

Most of the attack ads I have seen have come from Romney, McCain, and Giuliani. Living in NH, I see about 10 per hour. Huckabee, thus far, has been relatively civil, as has Clinton.

I think the worst dirtiest matchup would be either Gravel or Kucinich (both of whom love to demean the other side, although they are usually accurate), vs any of those 3 (Romney, McCain, Giuliani).

Bunch of monkeys in a cage slinging poo...

Answer 2

Huckabee is a bonafide member of the Christian right. He is not faking it or pandering. A worse choice would be Romney. He is religious and insincere. He is full of white lies about hunting and marching for civil rights, and big lies about his views on abortion and gay rights. He made his money by "achieving cost savings" for corporations, a fancy term for laying off hundreds of people.

Answer 3

I don't know, as evil as pastors are (not all Christians, but the leadership) I think I'd prefer Huckabee to Romney. Huckabee has been holding back on the personal attacks, and he only responds when Romney starts.

Romney on the other hand, keeps attacking anyone near him in the polls. Get too close or he sees a potential chance to gain the next highest position, and he pounces.

I do got to give you Hilary though. Problem is, she isn't doing the attacking. She seems to like the tactic of having her staff doing the attack, then apologizing and saying she had nothing to do with the idea. In this way, she can attack everyone without looking like she is attacking anyone; she just says she had no idea it was coming and she didn't want anything to do with it.

Answer 4

If those were my choices I this would probably be the first election I didn't vote in since I was old enough to vote.

Maybe there will be a viable third party candidate that I can throw my vote away on, that way at least I'll have the right to complain (something I don't believe you have the right to do if you were lazy and didn't vote).

Answer 5

Ugh, I'd be terribly upset with that choice. But, I see Hillary as the absolute worst possible choice, EVER, for this great nation. I'd reluctantly vote for Huckabee over any of the democrats. Although Huckabee is basically a conservative democrat with a slightly more fiscal conservative stance than the democratic candidates. Only things that make him able to survive in the republican party, are his views on gay marriage and abortion.

Answer 6

No. Huckabee is smooth, but he doesn't have the machine or people to stoop to the levels that Hilliary Clinton would to win. It would be a wipeout with sadly Hilliary taking the WH and healthcare as we know it with her.

Answer 7

I agree, they would take the cake in mudslinging,,,,and whichever one won the White House, we would still all lose because they are both alot alike and we'd get Hillary orHillary Huckabee,, Not much of a moral victory if you want my opinion.

Answer 8

Maybe some third party candidate would get 25 or 30% of the votes and make the two parties wake up.

Answer 9

well it wouldnt be that bad. i personally cant stand huckabee but clinton seems to want to do more to stop illegal immigration then barrack obama by far. so i wouldnt mind clinton because of that. but hopefully HOPEFULLY mitt romney answers our prayers and wins. (prays)

Answer 10

Worse? How about Giuliani & Co?.
