• Mike Huckabee Has the VP Ying to McCain's Presidential Yang

    It seems that Mike Huckabee might be angling toward becoming John McCain's running mate

    "There's no one I would rather be on a ticket with than John McCain," the former Arkansas governor said on NBC's "Meet the Press."

    "Let me point out that all during the campaign, when I was his rival, not a running mate, there was no one who was more complimentary of him publicly and privately," he said.

    And that is absolutely, true. Upon some careful examination, we've discovered some unquestionably complimentary traits of McCain and Huckabee…

    McCain: has taken heat from the religious right
    Huckabee: has a low -cal lunch with Jesus every other Tuesday

    McCain: Recently lost standing with moderate Democrats
    Huckabee: Has never had any standing with moderate Democrats

    McCain: Has extensive foreign policy experience
    Huckabee: Has no foreign policy experience

    McCain: Has pushed for campaign finance reform
    Huckabee: Has been hounded by allegations of improper campaign contributions during his time as Arkansas Governor

    McCain: Thinks good friend Sen. Joe Lieberman is alright in his book
    Huckabee: Has read about Jews in the Good Book
