Huckabee tells ABC's Jake Tapper that he doesn't plan to respond in-kind (or not-so-kind) to Romney. "I don't plan to fight with him. He's throwing punches and I'm saying, 'Merry Christmas,' " Huckabee said.

"Because most people go to the mailbox and they want some nice comfortable Christmas cards that say, 'Peace on Earth, Goodwill towards Man,' not 'Here's a hammer, let's crack this fellow's kneecaps.' I mean, it's unbecoming."

But in not attacking, Huckabee is sort of going on the attack. Tapper notices "some of the strongest language he's ever used -- words such as 'ruthless,' 'dishonest,' 'desperate' " -- as Huckabee discusses Romney on the trail.

Says Huckabee: "You need to look at this with some sense of sympathy. . . . Here's a guy who has outspent me 20-to-1 here, and he's behind."

His defense on clemencies has grown aggressive as well, as he repeats the tale of the veteran who wanted a BB-gun conviction from when he was 13 expunged so he could become a police officer. (Romney twice turned down the requests.)
