Huckabee becomes Yuckabee

Republican Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee may have improved his standing with ultra-rightwing xenophobic racist nut-cases by announcing that he's been endorsed by anti-immigrant Minutemen founder Jim Gilchrist.

From NBC/NJ’s Adam Aigner-Treworgy
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa -- Huckabee announced this morning the endorsement of Jim Gilchrist, the founder of the anti-illegal immigration and border security group the Minutemen. More to come.
Chuck Norris's endorsement and the accompanying cutesy commercial gave Huckabee an image boost, making him seem more 'regular guy'.

The Gilchrist endorsement exposes either a racist side to Huckabee or a shortage of moral principles.
