It's over, Charles. Romney outspent Huckabee 15-1 in Iowa and lost. New Hampshire is in his own political backyard and lost. He is toast. Why? Because voters know he is say-anything-lying-flip-flopping phony.

You ought to be ashamed of yourself for supporting a man that has been the enemy of the values you claim to hold.
