Huckabee/Don Young connection?
Can any of you tell me why it is that your Governor Huckabee and Alaska's sleaseball congressman Don Young are so tight? I noticed on an MSNBC crawl last night that Don is going to be Huckabee's presidential campaign exploratory committee chairman in Congress, while Arkansans funneled five times more money into Young's campaign war chest last year than his own Alaskan constituents.

From the Anchorage Daily News:

Arkansans gave $113,826 to U.S. Rep. Don Young's campaign, about one third of the $391,204 the Alaska congressman raised through March and nearly five times the $24,350 in contributions Young received from his home state ...

It makes me wonder if Young doesn't think that AK stands for Arkansas, not Alaska. He's just about that stupid. (He of the "Lincoln" quote re death to Congressmen who don't support the president.)

1. That would be because Huckabee IS a sleeze-ball.
If he somehow got to be the Puke nominee, I would know for sure that the Pukes are evil and insane, and Bush was not just a one-time horror.
