NYT Blog: Huckabees Remarkable Play

…remarkable only in the sense that it was a dumb play.

There’s a video at the blog you should see. I was almost prepared to write in Dukakabee’s defense until the moment he announced he was so outraged — so rock solid on positive campaiging — that he was going to show the ad to the press.

Better play: Give the same speech, refuse to run the ad, and let reporters ask to see it.

If you watch the video, Huckabee knows something we don’t… namely that McCain is rising in the polls and looking formidable coming down the stretch (if this can be described as a stretch). In fact, one might calculate that Dukakabee is running for Vice President after this stunt…

…we’ll see. McCain/Huckabee, anyone?
