It's clear to me and many others that Mike Huckabee is not broadening his appeal enough to win the primary. Therefore, his only contribution is to siphon off votes, giving McCain a clear path to victory.

So, it's not that Huckabee is wrong on any particular issues. It's just that a vote for the Huckster is a vote for McCain, because your man Huckster can't win.

Way to stand up for what you believe in, "Reverend"!

Actually, because their second choice is overwhelmingly for McCain, a vote for Huckabee is one that is not going to McCain.

Of the six candidates still in the race, 3 have a history of being pro-life (Huckabee, McCain, and Paul), 2 are vehemently pro-abortion (H. Clinton and Obama), and one was pro-abortion but now claims to be pro-life (Romney). So the Reverend excludes two of the three pro-life candidates...is he implicitly endorsing Ron Paul?

More than likely The Huck is drawing votes away from McCain. If you like Romney there’s no way you’d vote for The Huck.
