Another vanity candidate whose sole purpose is to steal votes from real conservatives thereby giving the nomination to Jeb Bush or Marco Rubio.

Just business. He went from nothing, to living in a million dollar house after the 2008 election. Not bad.

There is an upside to Huckabee's candidacy. Yes, he may take some of the social conservative/evangelical vote away from Cruz, which is what the RNC is hoping. However, Huckabee also styles himself as a pro-welfare state, George W. Bush-style "compassionate conservative," which will win over some fiscally liberal Republicans who might otherwise vote for Jeb. Or at least we can hope.
