Roundhouse kick given to face of Mitt Romney

The chief export of Mike Huckabee is pain

Former Arkansas governor and Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee appears to have the market cornered on random-but-awesome celebrity endorsements. He recently securing the endorsement of “Walker, Texas Ranger” megastar / phenomenon / indestructible karate master Chuck Norris (which may also help him capture the coveted “Wilford Brimley” demographic), and made this mind-boggling T.V. ad:

Huckabee also received the support of pro wrestling legend, “Nature Boy” Ric Flair:

“It’s a tremendous honor to offer my support to such an outstanding leader as Mike Huckabee” Flair said.  “His authentic conservative qualifications and level of executive leadership experience are unmatched by his opponents.  And like I always say, to be the man, you’ve got to beat the man and Mike Huckabee is the man.  Whoooooooo!”.

I couldn’t make this up if I tried.

In other, more legitimate news, Huckabee has recently surged to the top of the polls in Iowa, passing Giuliani, Thompson, and McCain, and challenging Mitt Romney for the overall lead there.
Huckabee has successfully been painting himself as the sole true Christian conservative candidate, and his message has been resonating with Iowa Republican voters from the right wing. Huckabee is strongly and unabashedly pro-life, anti-gay marriage, anti-gun control, and pro-school prayer.

Huckabee himself does not believe in the theory of evolution, but in a list of animals that Chuck Norris allows to live.

(Half of that last sentence is true. Guess which half.)
