voted for Huckabee. Then I voted for 8 Huckabee delegates...

A little-advertised fact of primaries is that if/when a candidate with delegates bows out, whoever they endorse gets their delegates. So, considering Huckabee's love of McCain and hatred for Romney lately, you could have effectively have just voted for McCain.

That’s why I picked Huckabee delegates that I know and trust. All delegates seem to be bound to their advertised candidate for at least one round of voting this time. Then they are free and not bound to vote for who was endorsed.
