Washington Whispers by Paul Bedard

Huckabee's Joke Is Good for His Bank

May 27, 2007 11:59 AM ET | Permanent Link | Print
GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee is taking his joke about Democrat John Edwards's $400 haircut all the way to the bank. He tells Whispers that his bid to raise 400 new contributions-one for every dollar Edwards spent-in just 96 hours was a hit, with some donations equal to the price of the haircut. In fact, he wishes other candidates would get expensive trims so he could do it again. "If I had known we'd have so many responses," he says, "I would have hoped that more candidates paid $400 for a haircut!"
