On Sunday Huckabee rejects the idea of the states deciding the abortion issue:

Republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee, who is gaining in the polls, said Sunday that he believes that individual states should not be able to decide if abortions should be legal in their jurisdictions, adding that the right to life is a moral issue.
“If morality is the point here, and if it’s right or wrong, not just a political question, then you can’t have 50 different versions of what’s right and what’s wrong,” Huckabee said in an appearance on the “Fox News Sunday” program with Chris Wallace.
“For those of us for whom this is a moral question, you can’t simply have 50 different versions of what’s right,” the former Arkansas governor added.
As for his rival Fred Thompson’s endorsement from the National Right to Life Committee, Huckabee said he was puzzled by their choice.
“But my surprise was nothing compared to the surprise of people across America who had been faithful supporters of right to life,” Huckabee said.
“Fred’s never had a 100 percent record on right to life in his Senate career. The records reflect that. And he doesn’t support the human life amendment which is most amazing because that’s been a part of the Republican platform since 1980,” Huckabee said.

But in an interview with John Hawkins of Right Wing News he had this to say:

John Hawkins: Switching gears again, do you think we should overturn Roe v. Wade?
Mike Huckabee: It would please me because I think Roe v. Wade is based on a real stretch of Constitutional application — that somehow there is a greater privacy issue in the abortion concern — than there is a human life issue — and that the federal government should be making that decision as opposed to states making that decision.
So, I’ve never felt that it was a legitimate manner in which to address this and, first of all, it should be left to the states, the 10th Amendment, but secondly, to somehow believe that the taking of an innocent, unborn human life is about privacy and not about that unborn life is ludicrous.

That seems to be the Thompson’s position, doesn’t it? Maybe these candidates need a scorecard to keep track of what they’ve said in interviews so they don’t get caught in hypocrisy.
