Mike Huckabee watched Tim Pawlenty's disappointing debate performance Monday night and had some advice for the Minnesota Republican: Ixnay the advisers. "He's over-coached, over-consulted," the Fox News host said on Laura Ingraham's radio show . "Get rid of them." Huckabee is not the first to wonder how Pawlenty and/or his advisers could have been so unprepared to take a direct question on his "Obamneycare" quip linking Mitt Romney to President Obama's health care overhaul.
