Say it ain't so

Down the stretch they come and the candidates made their final pitch to voters. Mike Huckabee held a late-night rally with his sidekick (get it?) Chuck Norris. But what was not widely reported was the other guy at his side. Check out this report from the Dallas Morning News:

Then Mr. Huckabee showed up with a bass guitar. And a band, with MSNBC's Joe Scarborough on rhythm guitar. And they started playing "Sweet Home Alabama." Mr. Norris stood to the side, hands in bluejeans pockets, bopping to the beat. The scene would be like a bad acid trip for a diehard Democrat.

I expect these things from a guy like Sean Hannity, but Joe Scarborough? Oh, and who was his guest on his program the next morning? The Huckster himself.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Scarborough's show has been a Huckabee ad for the last two weeks.
