I read that he was from Arkansas and had an extensive criminal record. Saw something earlier about how Huckabee might be down for the count, which could help Palin, or whomever, in 2012, but didn't quite understand it. Then I saw this on Andrew Sullivan's blog.
Huckabee Sweats
The suspect in the murder of four cops in Seattle coffee shop has a history:
Maurice Clemmons, the 37-year-old Tacoma man being sought for questioning in the killing of four Lakewood police officers this morning, has a long criminal record punctuated by violence, erratic behavior and concerns about his mental health. Nine years ago, then-Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee granted clemency to Clemmons, commuting his lengthy prison sentence over the protests of prosecutors.
The base won't like that, will they?
