20% of Republican primary voters say they support Huckabee...

80% say they do not.

Conservatives ought to at least agree that a New Hampshire victory for Senator McCain would be very bad for our common cause.

National polls are quite volatile at this stage on the Republican side, Huckabee’s lead here is not such a big deal.

Lemme know when there’s a national election....then I’ll start paying attention to national polls.

I would love the sound of an H “bombing” (in the polls.) Preferrably, both of them.

The bio of the 23-yo author from his site:

Michael van der Galiën: Founder and Editor-in-Chief Michael van der Galiën is the founder and Editor-in-Chief. He is a 23-year-old former law, now American Studies student at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen in the Netherlands, where he was a member of the board of the Criminal Justice Student Organization called Simon van der Aa and he wrote for a studentmagazine about religion, politics and culture called Intensief Magazine. In January 2006, Michael founded the blog Liberty and Justice. Because of his love for the U.S, it was quite logical for him to write about international politics with a special focus on the U.S. In June 2006 he became a co-blogger and later (after quitting his own blog due to lack of time) assistant editor at The Moderate Voice. He resigned from that post in September 07.

Moderate cheers Huckabee-that makes sense out of this piece. This is pure speculation wrapped up as informed insight. It isn't.

Huckabee has surged because he won a couple of debates and he’s got evangelical support. If a quick rise can happen to the liberal pro-life evangelical Huckster, it can happen to the conservative pro-life evangelical Hunter.

According to Intrade, the winner of the December 12th GOP debate was... Duncan Hunter.

Why the smart money is on Duncan Hunter

In this poll Hunter is up 3% and even with Paul and Thompson.

They should run on the same ticket together.
