I believe Huckabee was the social conservative’s grass roots candidate and I really liked the fair tax. I need to read the book to see what I think of it.

Mr. Huckabee is doing a lot of whining:

"If you thought Romney would make the ticket with GOP nominee John McCain, you will think again when you read "Do the Right Thing." For example, during the 2008 campaign, Romney tried to do a leveraged buyout of the Republican presidential nomination. "That fellow raised more than $107 million that was reported on the Federal Election Commission forms, much of it from himself and his equally blessed friends, thus dwarfing my $16 million. And other candidates pulled in even more: Senator Hillary Clinton raised more than $229 million, and yet she didn't get the nomination, either because, incredibly, she was outspent by Barack Obama," Huckabee writes.

I supported Steve Forbes and then Mitt Romney. Neither of these top spenders won the nomination. Money doesn't necessarily mean votes. Don't spend your money on his book is my suggestion.
