Huck's Hidden Agenda
Submitted by willow on Tue, 2008-01-01 12:42.
I yearn for even one candidate to change the campaign game. As much as I would like to believe Huckabee is sincere, I can't.
Showing the attack ad he pulled to press proves that Huck only feigns the high road. The tip-off? Huckabee argues that he had to "prove " to press that they actually were going to run an ad. Then he elaborated, that press could confirm his campaign already bought media. Whoops. Mistake.
That simple, fact-checking mission would supplant screening the ad itself. Instead, we're left with another orchestrated publicity blitz with hidden agenda. No surprise to Huck's campaign managers that citizens -- and journalists -- are flocking to YouTube to see -- spread and discuss -- the ad-we're-not-going-to-see.
