Huckabee isn't even a good liar. The Iowa straw poll is more biased to the perceived conservative evangelical candidate, not the "Washington ruling class"! LOL. He and Santorum are the last two winners. How can he spin that?!!!
Cross?!!! What cross?! How dare you call out my televangelistic pandering!!!
He won it in 2008; ergo, he must consider himself part of that ruling class? Or maybe it's just that the guy he is the stalking horse for in 2016 (Jeb) is.
The Iowa Straw Poll (formerly Ames Straw Poll) is not the same as the Iowa Caucuses.
Romney won the 2007 Ames Straw Poll by a wide margin. Michele Bachmann won the 2011 Ames Straw Poll by a narrow margin over Ron Paul.
The Straw Poll is a fundraiser intended to be more like a Republican state fair.
