Mike Huckabee ranks atop the GOP presidential field, according to the latest 2012 poll, released Friday afternoon by Fox News.

Fox didn't ask Republicans whom they'd vote for; rather, it asked whether respondents thought the potential candidate in question would make a good president.

Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, and Sarah Palin followed Huckabee. No GOP candidate was thought to make a good president by more than 50 percent of all respondents (including Democrats, Republicans, and independents). Find the list below:

I think Americans are going to have one of those “Day of Rage” gigs if we ever want to take our government and country back away from the communists.

If Jim DeMint’s not included, then it ain’t a real poll.

The GOP will lose in the next election. No more McCain’s and Huck is one.

I have believed, since 2008, he would be the nominee this time around and I expect it.

I don’t support him, natch, but this is what I see.

Elmer Gantry's a fraud, a socialist, and his ugly fat son is a dog-abuser.

What is wrong with people?

He is a Gomer Pyle looking, amnesty-lovin populist RINO. Is that what it takes to get elected these days?

Might as well vote for Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho for President.

None of them have entered or campaigned any yet. Too early to take this too seriously. The others should get a jump on the Huckster and Mittster to make a dent.

People generally don’t know much about the others yet. There is time for them to make it or break it.

I just saw him with Stuart Varney, and it is obvious he has been listening to Rush very carefully.

B.S.

Admin Moderator: I really mean B.S. - just thought I'd let you know I posted something ‘questionable.’

Huckabee can't EVER bring out a win for the GOP on a National basis - he just does not have a clear enough vision.

Romney is Wimpy, just like McCain: ‘Vote for me today and I'll gladly disturb you with my future liberal leanings on Tuesday.’

Wimpy: ‘Could you please lend me the money for a hamburger for which I will gladly repay you on Tuesday.’

Notice the Wimpy similarity?

The conservatives need to get ahead of this and nip it in the bud. I know a LOT of conservatives in Texas and Louisiana with money who like him. They hear "baptist preacher" and it's all they need to support him.

I worry that he'll peel off just enough conservatives, enabling another worthless liberal republican to end up as the nominee.

We are in big trouble if these are the best top 3 candidates the repubs can muster.

Casper Milquetoast
Socialist republican
Weird futurist

Not a Reagan among them! All politicians. No sign of a real soul here at all.

I know Sarah has high negatives, but I’ll take her in a minute over these jokers.

Why is Trump even on the list? [Though I will say he is much like Thomas Jefferson in the large amount of debt he and his companies have accumulated over the years.] Are we that shallow? If so, I am thinking Australia and New Zealand are looking much more appealing these days. This is so discouraging.

He’s not running. He filed papers a few days ago to the effect.
