Don't be too hard on him. He is just here treading water waiting for Reaganesque to author and pass around the der Flipmeister talking points so they know what they are supposed to parrot.

The rudy 10% is almsot certainly a typo — he’s not getting that in any single county. I think the posted raw number of 4901 is probably actually 491.

Just what is this love affair Fox is having with Mcinsane? He has been all over the place on Fox the last few days? This for the guy who is barely beating Paul for 4th place tonight?

...perhaps, more accurately, it would be the Evangelical wing of politics that spoke

I've been following this thread all afternoon and I think you may be closer than anyone so far. Here's my take, for what it's worth. I belive many, many Christians are put off by the Mormon candidate, but don't necessarily want to make the point out loud (for example, me). While I do not support the Huckster (go FRED go!), I believe he, as "the former Baptist Minister", most clearly represents the unspoken anti-Mormon vote.

Wasn’t Rush Limbaugh supposed to have destroyed Huckabee’s campaign? Guess not.

Like myself I imagine many stopped listening to Rush years ago. When he sounded as though he was broadcasting from the White House basement, I tuned him out.

That being said, I'm no Huck supporter.

LOL. I just heard a wierd exchange between Ed Rollins and Chris Wallace on Fox. Some blogger reporting all sorts of nasty stuff she heard Rollins saying to his wife in a resturant. By nasty ,I mean nasty political ploys.
Did anyone else hear that and know which blog this is being reported on? Rollins looked pretty nasty.

The MSM can’t ignore Fred if he comes in third, and still have a love fest with Hillary when she comes in third.

"So here in the Situation Room, we are
reporting that Hillary's campaign is still alive with
a strong 3rd place showing. On the Republican
side, every other candidate except Huckabee
should commit suicide and give up right now."

Which is exactly why Chucklebee will not win another state.
What an idiot. And his handlers like Rollins only reflect the turds ideas.

Lord Jesus. As great as our country and people are, why would a state send Huckabee or Obama to lead us, especially during these times?

While Abortion is one of the most important issues, it is clearly for naught if we lose to the jihadists. You can add the jizba to your list of sacrifices too.
