Machiavellian or Boob?

I vote boob. I think Huckabee is the Forrest Gump candidate for the Republican presidential nomination.

Mike Huckabee said Monday he wouldn't run a TV ad he'd prepared blistering Republican rival Mitt Romney as dishonest. Then he showed it to a room packed with reporters and cameramen.

Huckabee, who has sharply intensified his criticism of the former Massachusetts governor in recent days, tried to reclaim the high road in the midst of a news conference three days before Iowa's presidential caucuses. He told reporters the event had been called to announce the hard-hitting new ad but he had changed his mind about running it on TV.

Apparently, some of the reporters in the room started to laugh as Huckabee claimed to be above it all when he talked about not showing the ad he was about to show. Stupid is as stupid does.
