Mike Huckabee is a Liberal

Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee seems to think that the goverment is better at helping the poor than the free market.

He just signed a bill into law that would raise the state's minimum wage, but in 2002, he publicly opposed a bill that would have repealed the state sales tax on basic necessities like groceries and medicine.

Incidentally, did you know Arkansas had the second highest poverty rate in the country from 2002 to 2004?
