“”He beat McCain 3 to 1 in Kansas and Arkansas, and is a lot more appealing to a lot of people than McCain is.
Of the 14.1 million votes cast so far in the Republican primaries/caucuses the results don’t indicate a strong appeal for the Huckster from Hope. At this stage he gets the anti vote which doesn’t necessarily mean he is appealing.
Total vote percentage todate
McCain 38.7 %
Romney 30.4 %
Huckabee 19.8 % “”
The total vote percentage to date is IRRELEVANT, because a lot of conservatives who voted for Romney would not have voted for McCain.
The Kansas and Arkansas numbers are a lot better indication of what a head to head matchup would look like.

They are just as relevant as your home grown numbers in AR of 3 to 1 is a representative number of what the rest of the states will do....... He was rejected by 40% of the voters in AR his home state and the voters that know him best. The Huckster didn’t even come close in Virginia or Maryland states that voted after Super Tuesday.
I don’t think you’ll find the remaining states going for the Huckster at a 3 to 1 ratio.... Polls are saying he won’t win in TX. We’ll see as it plays out.
3 to 1 you say?..........
How did Wisconsin and Washington respond? I don’t think it was 3 to 1......
