AP News Analysis: Huckabee quips now under national spotlight

LITTLE ROCK - Six years after referring to Arkansas as a "banana republic" on Don Imus' nationally syndicated radio show, Gov. Mike Huckabee returned to the show this month with another comment to cause a stir.



When Imus, commenting on the Arkansas governor's dramatic weight loss, referred to Huckabee as emaciated, Huckabee had a quick explanation for his appearance.

"I have just come out of six weeks at a concentration camp held by the Democrat Party of Arkansas in an undisclosed location, making a hostage tape," Huckabee said during Wednesday's show. "That's why I look that way."

The comment drew the ire of a Jewish Democratic group that said the term-limited governor and potential presidential candidate should apologize for the remark.

I"M SHOCKED @ GOV, HUCKSTER"S COMMENT "Please if there is a GOD let him get Huckabee out of arkansas politic as soon as you can .......... AMEN "
