re: #24 Ben Hur

Actually, I think it really cheapens Huckabee further to bring this into the discussion. First, the two are not analogous. Also, it minimizes the concept of selling out those with whom you have personal relationships as this is more about you scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours - not the same as selling out one’s close friends. And, of all people, as a former pastor, Huckabee should know better than to use such a comparison in this situation. For him to use it cheapens what he professes to believe by dragging an account that is supposed to be at the core of what he holds sacred and using it to smear a competitor.
