TWIGGY TO WHIGGY?
(CNN) — Days after national Republicans launched a new campaign to broaden the party's outreach, former upstart presidential candidate Mike Huckabee says the GOP is at risk of becoming "irrelevant as the Whigs."
Three prominent GOP leaders — Rep. Eric Cantor, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney — questioned whether Huckabee's lavender tie sends the "wrong" message to the party's base.
"I'm frustrated with all these people who are jockeying for the position to be the 'leader,'" Huckabee said. "It's almost like we're worried about who's going to be the drum major and we don't have a piece of music yet."
Observers also report whispers that the former governor may be losing his battle of the bulge.
Said conservative talk-radio host Scott Hennen, "You don't see a lot of overweight drum majors."

Minds in similar circles. R U a Scorpio?
I was reading CNN today and b4 coming here..visiting here.. I noted the bit on Huckabuck.
Seems he's hanging on to his mantra of social conservatism.
When will they learn that Pluto has left Sagg and won't return for 244 years...meaning the church vs. state fight is dead, for all practical and planetary reasons. Last time around Pluto in Sagg gave us the Puritans who morphed into today's Fundies, and now must wait another 244 years before raising their ugly heads.
Good for us, via CNN, Darth Cheney is digging in his heels. Won't budge. Stays the course and from what eLwood has seen THAT IS GREAT!
Dick and Mike are clicky
