You seem to be easily impressed. When the bar is so low, no one is amazed that anyone can get over it.
Personally I consider Huckabee to be about the worst of those still standing. (I don't count Ron Paul. I never have.) I'd prefer him over Hillary or Obama, but that's not saying very much.
I would rather vote for Hillary or Obama than the Huckster. Why? Because after four years of Hillary/Obama, there's a really good chance that the masses will see the light and elect a Republican House, Senate, and POTUS (or hopefully, at least two out of three). If the Hucketer wins, I foresee the RAT's winning the POTUS in 2012 and controlling Congress for a generation.
