"....Hopefully, we will all play by the same set of rules. Todd erred, apologized, and we need to help him win, not convince ourselves he can’t. Karl erred, apologized, and we need to treat him in the way we want Todd Akin to be treated. If Todd is continued to be alienated and Karl doesn’t suffer the same fate, then I will encourage all the activists I can to spend all their time, money, and effort in Missouri. If the party doesn’t want us, then I guess they don’t need us. Akin will. Janet and I are sending him the maximum we can under federal law...." Huckabee comment in Politico
Mr. Huckabee,
Respectfully - The issue is that Congressman Akin is
a "player" on the GOP "team".
I Believe Karl Rove "owns" part of the GOP communications team because he and his allies "fund it."
According to the NFL "owners are able to drop a player if he does NOT perform. Do you agree with that?
Why invest in a "team" if YOU can't win the Superbowl?
The Presidency is the political = of the Superbowl. Do YOU want Romney to win or are YOU salivating for 2016. One of your supporters told me last night your working on the "primary" strategy. Is that what a "team" player does?

Let’s hope that all those who have publicly called on Todd to quit the race now do what they can to help him win. If they continue to ask him to stand down, then I will expect they will demand the same of Karl. If they don’t and try to say “it’s different,” then we will finally know for sure that we are a party of personalities and not of principles. We will then know that we protect only those who are “in the club” and the rest of us are on our own.
