Mike Huckabee Rubio Endorsement: He's A "Principled Conservative" (VIDEO)

Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee has endorsed Marco Rubio in the Florida senate race, a big boost for Gov. Charlie Crist's conservative challenger.

"Marco loves liberty," Huckabee said in his endorsement video. "He's a principled conservative, but he's also an effective leader."

Watch:

Last week, Sen. Jim DeMint broke party ranks to endorse Rubio against Crist.

Loser endorses Loser.

[Andrea Soule]

Don't you have a fair-and-balanced Faux News talk show to host, Huck?

[mudbones]

Lord, this'll help Crist, gee thanks.

[doodlebug2]

I am supposed to care because...­.........?­??

[Xav7]

Not much of a surprise. Huckabee is a simpleton.
Who caught Rubio's ludicrous tweet about Iran and the 2nd Amendment?
Rich!

[republicrat1]

I did and he only thought out loud that if countries has what we so hard fight for to preserve, the 2nd on , or any version of it Dictators and totalitarian regimes would think twice before cracking down on their citizens

So it was freedom what you he had in mind

since rick warren has gone under the radar, maybe hucklebee could do his stand-up wanna-be political act at saddleback.

[JeffE]

Yeah, Huckleberry. Give it your best shot. Crist will wipe the floor with Rubio.

[Whinger]

Thanks Mike, oh death where is thy sting!

When you come in 4th in a state's primary...your endorsement is somewhere between meaningless and inconsequential.

Matters not. Florida began leaning democrat well before handing the state to Obama during the 08' election. Oh yes republicans, currently...there are far more Floridians sick and tired of the GOP than there is overly-medicated and paranoid, democrat haters.

Rubio...he'll be joining Huckabee in the Also Ran Club.

[IDIOTA]

Crist is supposedly gay -- maybe he's bisexual -- so Huckabee is supporting the safe, attractive, Latino candidate who stands a chance of winning in Florida.

[AKWrongWinger]

I believe you mean Huckabee is GAY, he is a preacher!

[truthartbeauty]

where is your rocket scientist sidekick Chuck Norris pin head?

[grf67]

Who could possibly care what huckabee has to say? He was so bad that he lost to mccain.
