Not familiar with that analogy. But all too familiar with the Huckabee nonsense. He is not a viable candidate and, if voter madness were to choose him, he would be slaughtered in a general election!

Look, I voted for Reagan, but I was also quite surprised at his success. And, yes, I agree that he became one of our great presidents. But Mr.Huckabee is not Ronald Reagan! I don’t mind that he continues in the race, but I don’t think it is incumbent on me to support him or to endorse him or to, even, value him. He is in the race for himself and whatever he can get out of it. My own hope is that he gets a one-way bus ticket back to Arkansas.
