Gov. Huckabee Departs Fox News, Will Make Decision On '16 Campaign
By Late Spring
Huckabee: "As much as I have loved doing the show, I cannot bring myself to rule out another Presidential run."
"Tonight I
will do more than just say goodnight. I will say goodbye. This is
the
last edition of 'Huckabee' on the Fox News Channel. It's been the ride
of a lifetime, and I have never had so much fun in my life. But I also
realize that God hasn't put me on earth just to have a good time or to
make a good living, but rather has put me on earth to try to make a
good life.
"There has been a great deal of speculation as to whether I would run for President. If I were willing to absolutely rule that out, I could keep doing this show. But I can't make such a declaration. I won't make a decision about running until late in the spring of 2015, but the continued chatter has put Fox News into a position that is not fair to them nor is it possible for me to openly determine political and financial support to justify a race. The honorable thing to do at this point is to end my tenure here at Fox. As much as I have loved doing the show, I cannot bring myself to rule out another Presidential run. So as we say in television, stay tuned!"
