HuckChuckFacts

Leave it to Mike Huckabee to come up with Chuck Norris in his campaign ad. The ad plays off Chuck Norris facts - a ridiculously popular website that lists, among other facts:

Guns don't kill people. Chuck Norris kills People.


There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of animals Chuck Norris allows to live.


Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.

With that in mind, here's Mike (and Chuck):

When I first heard about the ad, I rolled my eyes and thought Mike had come undone. Then I looked at the counter on YouTube. More than 500,000 views in a day. I compared that to other campaigns - Obama's first ad only has 175,000 after nearly a year. His last ad has less than 3,000 hits. Hillary's top ad has 145,000 - after months and months. The Republican side is worse. Rudy's top ad has less than 35,000 hits.

Maybe Mike knows something the rest of them don't. Of course maybe not a single YouTube viewer lives in New Hampshire and will vote for him.

Where were the Religious Right elected official types with senses of humor who you could disagree with without hating (and vice versa) before Mike Huckabee?

When Chuck Norris enters the rodeo, he brings along Babe the Blue Ox as his steer ...
