Huckabee Attacks "Maria" Sotomayor
Mike Huckabee was ahead of the pack today in releasing a statement criticizing President Obama's nomination of Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court. There was only one problem: he got his target's name wrong.

As Ben Smith points out, Huckabee's original statement identified the nominee as Maria Sotomayor:

The appointment of Maria Sotomayor for the Supreme Court is the clearest indication yet that President Obama's campaign promises to be a centrist and think in a bipartisan way were mere rhetoric.

The error has been fixed and the full statement can be found on Huckabee's personal website.

13. and thus he can claim that he never really attacked Obama's nomination ...
similar to the statements that Obama was never really sworn in as President, first because "he" effed up the oath of office, and then "he didn't swear on a Bible" ...
