I agree. This article is right on the money. Huckabee is not going away because he represents a wide swath of opinion among middle American voters. Committed to faith, life, family and biblical values, they are also compassionate and see government as a tool not a master. Couldn’t have said it better myself.

Committed to faith, life, family and biblical values,

One can be committed to faith, life, family and biblical values and still believe in a strong economy, limited government and liberty as opposed to "liberal", big government solutions. In fact, liberalism has led to strongly anti-worker, anti-faith, anti-family, anti-biblical value outcomes most everyplace it has been tried.

Why is the media ignoring the Huckster’s supporters being motivated by hate?

This government compassion of the past forty years has given us the Lyndon Johnson War on Poverty programs. This is not compassion. This is sly Democrat party big government, big party machine cronyism in the disguise of helping people. After forty years of trillions of dollars on these always expanding social programs, you would think that there would be no poverty anywhere. And yet what do Clinton, Edwards and other liberals campaign on - poverty. They will bankrupt all of us before they put an end to poverty.

The problem is that Huckabee is not a conservative.
There are other serious Christian in this race. Hunter actual is a conservative and a Christian. Paul is a Christian and a Libertarian. The Huckster isa nannystater with questionable ethics a propensity to lie behind a veneer of religiousity.
Matt 23 anyone?

The politician pretends to be the servant so he can become the master.

Huckabee is just a sleazy televangelist who glomed onto religion as a tool. He would just as easily glomed onto any other issue to win.

but its ok, he is anti-abortion so that gives him the free pass...

Self-appointed "compassionate" people who feel entitled to use the "government as a tool" to advance their personal moral agendas have historically given rise to tyranny and are among those most to be feared by a free people.
