...Mike Huckabee put the squeeze on a politician at the North Carolina Republican Party convention, but in a good way.

The former Arkansas governor performed the Heimlich maneuver on Robert Pittenger, Republican candidate for lieutenant governor...

Pittenger said he was laughing when he choked on some food.

"I stood up and the governor came over and did the Heimlich and got the relief,"...http://www.rawstory.com/news/mochila/Huckabee_helps_choking_NC_candidate_06072008.html

This was entirely accidental. Huck was trying to strangle the other guy but accidentally ended up Heimliching him.

And here I thought it was The Moronchurian Candidate (Obama) that was The Messiah.

Yay for Huck. He may not be the best politician but I still think he is an awesome person.

Agreed.

I bet he's glad it was Huckabee, and not Barney Frank!

I'd rather die than be saved by Barney Frank.

Especially if being saved required mouth-to-mouth.

:yuck:

I was more thinking of having Representative Frank do the Heimlich maneuver...

THAT, my friends, is scary.
