Huckabee and his supporters always seem to point out that Romney's attacking him.  The already nascent Huck-a-bust will undoubtedly be blamed on Romney by Huck and his supporters.  However . . . I don't think that Romney had anything to do with the fact that essentially every conservative with a microphone or blog has been railing against Huckabee for the last few weeks.  Need some evidence?:

Rush Limbaugh

  Bob Novak

Condoleezza Rice

Peggy Noonan

Charles Krauthammer

Michelle Malkin

Ann Coulter

Sean Hannity (kind of . . . not frontal attacks, but plenty of comments expressing concern with him as the potential GOP nominee)

Laura Ingraham

Fred Barnes

Mark Steyn

George Will– (  these comments too on a TV news show)

Glenn Beck  (semi “reconciliation” —- but then he's still not too impressed)

Matt Drudge (it's obvious that he has a bone to pick with Huckabee given his coverage of late)

David Limbaugh

Kim Strassell

Pat Buchanan

Michael Reagan

Jim Geraghty

Tony Blankley

James Taranto (also here too, and don't forget Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4 of the “No Truck with Huck” series)

Rich Lowry

Dean Barnett

Mark Hemingway

Austin Hill

Tom Bevan

Kathryn Jean Lopez

John Hinderaker

Victor Davis Hanson

Hugh Hewitt

Frank Gaffney

Peter Wehner

Paul Mirengoff ( here and here too)

The Editors of National Review  (Oh yeah, this one too)

Conclusion:  Huckabee's not a full-spectrum conservative and the GOP would be unwise to give him the nomination.  Romney has had to point out the un-conservative spots in Huck's record because the MSM/DNC axis sure hasn't been (they want him as the GOP nominee) and because McCain and Rudy want Huck to win Iowa to stifle Romney's path to the nomination.  However, Romney is hardly alone in pointing out Huckabee's worrisome record.
