Ark. Governor Responds, Says Times Editor 'Is Behaving Like a Hobo'new

In a surprisingly vitriolic statement distributed by e-mail and posted on the Arkansas state Web site, Governor Mike Huckabee addresses complaints he has faced since he dropped Arkansas Times from his official media list. Huckabee claims that Editor Max Brantley "feels he is entitled to special treatment and should be given personal notice every time I conduct interviews with members of the press." A couple of political bloggers have differing opinions of the statement's significance for Huckabee's potential presidential candidacy: On The New Republic Online, Noam Scheiber writes that "You've really got to read the whole thing to appreciate how unhinged he sounds. The tone is not exactly what the political pros refer to as 'presidential.'" Meanwhile, Wonkette, tongue firmly planted in cheek, reaches the opposite conclusion: "So Mike Huckabee is an Arkansas governor with a bad temper and an adversarial relationship with certain media outlets. Perhaps he has a better shot at the presidency than we thought."
