That link will give you a little background over the fight among Southern Baptists a few years ago. I probably let my assumption run ahead of me here, but I remember the fight over whether southern Baptists as a denomination would take a liberal turn. One thing the secularists were open to considering was gay clergy. I knew Huckabee was on the liberal side, but don’t know that he personally came out in favor of it.

I read the link you posted. I admit, I’m surprised that Huckabee aligned himself with the liberal faction of his denomination, but there's no mention that he specifically supports gays becoming ordained in the church. I don’t think he does. And for the record, I am not a Huckabee supporter.
