Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said he hasn't decided whether he'll run for president, but thinks people should be paying attention to him.
"I just don't understand how it is that a person can read these polls day after day and the narrative is constantly everybody but me," Huckabee told Politico.
"Whether I do it or not, the fact is that if one looks at the overall body of information that's available, nobody would be in a better position to take it all the way to November."
Huckabee also drew a contrast between the attention given to former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, with whom he shares a base of support among religious and conservative groups.

What kind of Christian is called to the cloth, and then leaves it for a career in politics....I know, a phony one.
His conservatism is as fake as his bass playing and his Christianity.
His appeal is only to the most ignorant and backwards voters in the country. They have to be to support such a flawed human being.
Which of the his sons tortured a dog, then hung it to death?
One turned loose a violent felon who went on to gun down four cops in a coffee shop in cold blood and the other one didn’t.
Not a huge fan of Palin_for_President but I’ll take her any day over Huckster. He is so cloying on his TV show.
It’s about a toss up. I’d give the edge to Sarah. However, neither is conservative enough. We need better, and I think we’ll get it.
He still sees Palin as his great rival, rather than Obama.
Fight the Obamists, fight the communists, fight the Sorosian gangsters, and your presidential ambitions will take care of themselves.
Waste your energy worrying about Palin and you’re done. And, as it happens, barring a sudden enlightenment, he is done. He doesn’t get it. Folks like Palin, Bachmann, DeMint, and a few others, all focus their energy on the Obamists. Guys like Huck and Romney worry about Palin.
I hope his “peeps” are reading FR when I say, “NO THANKS Huckabee you snake oil salesman! Keep your radio show; that’s marginally acceptable. But we don’t need the Republican version of John Edwards roiling the waters!”
No, you would have to resurect Howdie doodie for that job.
FWIW, Mike has two clemency decisions that went lethally wrong, and the campaign isn’t even really started yet. Unless he gets God to raise the victims from the dead, he’s done, in 2012 and beyond.
And even if he didn’t have them on his record, he’s a self-pitying douchebag, and that’s never going to be attractive in a presidential candidate.
David Huckabee was kicked out of the boy scouts for torturing and killing a stray dog.
Reminds me of that old redneck joke.
Q: How can you tell if a guy is a redneck?
A: When his front porch collapses, it kills at least 15 hound dogs.
You missed the program I saw.
Huck’s likable and pro-life. after that, he’a an empty suit.
