Huckabee Hypocrisy

Today Mike Huckabee held a press conference in which he congratulated himself for deciding not to run an anti-Romney attack ad. Here was his explanation:

At some point we have to decide, can we change the kind of politics and the level of discourse? I'd like to believe we can, and it's got to start somewhere, and it might as well start here, and it might as well start with me.

He then proceeded to show the ad to the assembled reporters and gave them all a transcript of its contents.

Huh? Did I miss something?

Oh I get it... By claiming to not realize that he'd deliberately failed to not run a negative ad, he "change[d] the kind of politics and the level of discourse."

Very clever, Mike!
