Having given up his long-running show on Fox News, it’s looking likely that Gov. Mike Huckabee is very seriously considering running for president in 2016. Reaction to his announcement Saturday night has ranged from disinterest to feelings of nausea, but Glenn Reynolds, aka Instapundit, is seriously considering a second look at Hillary Clinton if Huckabee clinches the nomination.
His followers, though, are beginning to consider the merits of the Sweet Meteor o’ Death.

@sven10077 @instapundit Yes! @smod2016 in 2016! Spare us from Hill and Huck.

@sven10077 @instapundit If Huck gets the nom and if @smod2016 doesn't run after all, maybe we're stuck with this. pic.twitter.com/hPNGL04fs5

@instapundit Well, Huckabee would probably be better on foreign policy. But otherwise, disaster.

@instapundit @ProofBlog I do not understand the huckster hatred.

.@scotty_watti @instapundit Huckabee's not a bad guy, he would just make an atrocious president.

I'd vote for Hillbillary in this scenario. RT @instapundit: If it came down to Huckabee vs. Hillary, I'd have to give Hillary a second look.

@ProofBlog @instapundit I don't know. The only position I have heard him spell out is the fair tax. Beyond that I am ignorant. #FairTax

@instapundit @HouseCracka I'd give a pile of poo a 3rd look instead of Huckabee or Hillary…just saying

U want a far left SCOTUS for life? Chill. “@instapundit: If it came down to Huckabee vs. Hillary, I'd have to give Hillary a second look.”

.@scotty_watti @kinxbitz @instapundit @SenTedCruz I just heard about Huck's support for Common Core today. Another strike in my book.

.@scotty_watti @kinxbitz @instapundit @SenTedCruz Jindal would be good. Don't know how well he'll do as a national candidate

.@scotty_watti @kinxbitz @instapundit In a country that fell for Styrofoam Greek columns, it would be better if he was 6'4" and a baritone.
