Posted by D. Cupples | I love it when the Washington Post's Joel Achenbach gets into politics. Friday, Achenbach shared his two cents on presidential candidate Mike Huckabee at WaPo's The Trail:
"Mike Huckabee has emerged as perhaps the most fascinating figure on the campaign trail this side of Elizabeth Kucinich. He's affable, funny, plays rock guitar, pardoned Keith Richards (name ONE thing that any other candidate has done that's as cool as that), has completely cornered the Jenny Craig/Weight Watchers vote, and is running as a rock-solid conservative even as his governing record leads some folks to call him a liberal.
"He's also a Southern Baptist preacher, and believes, he says, in Adam and Eve....
"One of The Trail's readers posted a comment the other day about the Dennis Kucinich UFO encounter, saying, in essence, why is that any weirder than the supernatural events that are described in the Bible and are central to Christian faith? (The commenter put it more colorfully.) But it's no mystery: Christianity is mainstream in America, whereas atheism or UFOlogy or even Mormonism is not. Christian candidates don't have to explain themselves -- unless, like Huckabee, they get too far into Adam-and-Eve territory...."
