Mike Huckabee is pissy because the evangelicals are not backing him. Accuses them of not wanting to end abortion because it financially benefits their organizations.

Huckabee recently spoke with Fox News pundit Todd Starnes about his feelings toward the leaders of the Religious Right establishment who, he feels, abandoned him and he did not hold back as he accused them of not actually wanting to see an end to abortion or gay marriage because they raise too much money campaigning on those issues. 

"As I've often said, 'I don't go to them, I come from them,' but because of that I do understand them. And a lot of them, quite frankly, I think they're scared to death that if a guy like me got elected, I would actually do what I said I would do, and that is I would focus on the personhood of every individual, we would abolish abortion based on the Fifth and 14th Amendment, we would ignore the Supreme Court's same-sex marriage decision. And you know what the result would be? 

A lot of these organizations wouldn't have the ability to do urgent fundraising because if we slay the dragon, what dragon do they continue to fight? And so, for many of them, it could be a real detriment to their organization's abilities to gin up their supporters and raise the contributions, and I know that sounds cynical but, Todd, it is what it is."

You know Huckabee is really talking out of anger and disappointment here, but he's not wrong.

There are indeed a number of these anti-abortion groups who would have no reason to exist once abortion was made illegal.

However they also realize, as does Huckabee, that it is very unlikely that abortion is EVER going to be made completely illegal again, even IF he were elected.

Personally I never tire of watching these conservative idiots beating each other up.
