"Make a list," said Huckabee, referring to supporters' family and friends. "Call them and ask them, 'Are you going to vote on Issue 2 and are you going to vote for it?' If they say no, well, you just make sure that they don't go vote. Let the air out of their tires on election day. Tell them the election has been moved to a different date. That's up to you how you creatively get the job done."

Would that make it worse for Huckabee, or to the person reporting it three years later?

Travis read DU today. Posted their story and disappeared as usual.

Do you suppose that is his job? The D party pays him to spread shit on internet message boards to see what sticks?

Oh, and Mike Huckabee is a douchebag.

Edit:

Huckabee is a douchebag not because of this story. He is a douchebag because of this http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/mike-huck ... id=9207095

Huckabee to Anti-Union Crowd: Deflate Car Tires and Mislead Voters

Former GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has some advice for people who support the anti-union law passed in Ohio that faces a statewide repeal vote on November 8: Find out who's voting to repeal the bill and block them from ballot box. The onetime Arkansas governor suggested deflating tires and giving these voters the wrong election date. "That's up to you, how you creatively get the job done," Huckabee quipped.

Huckabee's remarks came during an appearance on Friday in Mason, Ohio, before a crowd of 350 people, according to MasonBuzz, a local blog that first reported the remarks. On November 8, Ohioans will vote on Issue 2, a much-contested ballot referendum on whether to repeal Gov. John Kasich's controversial anti-union legislation (known as SB 5) that curbed collective bargaining rights for his state's public-sector unions. Recent polls have shown that a majority of Ohioans support repealing Kasich's bill. Enter Huckabee. He has been stumping for voting yes on Issue 2—that is, to uphold Kasich's anti-union bill—urging members of the audience to do the same, and to pray in support of the measure. As part of his plea, Huckabee told the Mason crowd:

Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. Anybody that watches Huckabee at all knows he does tounge in cheek all the time.

Edit: Ok. At least one of you linked an article clearly indicating that he was joking.
