Post Talk: Huckabee Hits Romney Flips

In an interview with the Post's Dan Balz and Chris Cillizza, former Arkansas governor says Democrats would exploit Romney's "dramatic" shifts on issues.

Huckabee said he does not doubt the authenticity of the former Massachusetts governor's conversion on social issues, most notably abortion. "I'm just going to assume that if says he's solidly pro-life now, he is," he said, adding later: ""Let's assume everything is hunky dory with his views now," he said. "The problem is not so much where he is but where he was and the fact that that's a change and not just on that issue but on a number of others. What's problematic is that it does represent a dramatic shift and the obvious thing that a Democrat[ic] opponent will do to him is to say he shifted once, will he shift again?"
