Yeah, I guess it is time people stop thinking there was some kind of conspiratorial tag-team going on. They are going to have to come up with an alternative narrative to explain everything.....but still deny Huckabee's political skills, resilience, and natural appeal.
Oh, I still think Huck was playing tag team for McCain, he just did so unbidden. Now that it's becoming apparent to him that McCain is not going to pick him for Veep, Huck has to attack him. If Huck had a different plan, he would have attacked McCain after New Hampshire (or even during, or even during Michigan). Not after Super Tuesday and after Romney dropped out. Now that McCain hasn't approached Huck to pay him back for splitting the conservative vote, Huck is swinging for the fence. A lot too little. A lot too late.
