Huckabee won’t be the VP nominee. The VP nominee should be someone who has been a U.S. rep., since that usually worked, in the past 55 years. Five of the last six GOP VP’s were congressmen. Those five were Dick Cheney, Dan Quayle, George H.W. Bush, Gerald Ford, and Richard Nixon. The exception was Spiro Agnew.

Huckabee should be the presidential nominee, and his running-mate should be Bob Beauprez.

NO TAX AND SPEND HUCKSTER SHOULD BE OUR NOMINEE.

“By the end of his ten-year tenure, Governor Huckabee was responsible for a 37% higher sales tax in Arkansas, 16% higher motor fuel taxes, and 103% higher cigarette taxes according to Americans for Tax Reform (01/07/07), garnering a lifetime grade of D from the free-market Cato Institute.”

Huckabee should be the presidential nominee,

Why?

If the nominee is a senator, the chemistry changes and a domestically oriented governor might be a good balance for a senator.
In this race a lot of the conventional wisdom will not apply.

Actually, Mike Huckabee would be an excellent VP for Hillary Clinton. He is no conservative. He just promised Arkansas a new slave bank in his pro-illegal alien stance. Even said as much!
