Put down the crack pipe and sober up.

Hey, it is red zinfandel, mmmm, not crack, and I will not put it down. :o)

Huck stopped ROmney and gave the nomination to mccain, end of story.

The story continues. The story is that Romney beat Romney, no one else. He wasn't a good enough candidate. He couldn't beat the liberal McCain, and he couldn't beat the conservative Huckabee where Huckabee was able to make his presence known. Watch for Huckabee to continue to roll up victories in Louisiana and Texas. His success this evening will propel his candidacy forward. It may be too little, too late, to stop McCain, but to blame Huckabee for Romney's shortcomings is absurd. Romney is a flawed candidate, and no amount of money or pundit propaganda will overcome that fact.

Let me fix your comments ...

Romney won more votes and more states than Huckabee tonight.
HUCKABEE IS THE LOSER HERE, HE JUST DOESNT KNOW IT/CARE.

The story is that Huckabee beat Huckabee no one else. He wasn’t a good enough candidate.

He couldn’t beat the liberal McCain, and he couldn’t beat the conservative Romney where Romney was able to make his presence known. Watch for Huckabee to continue to roll up losses in non-southern states around the country.

As for Louisiana ... Huckabee was not even in the running there.

Huck lost 16 states, doing miserably in most of them, his lack of success this evening outside a few southern states will propel his candidacy to irrelevency.

Huck will lose TX. The Huckster-fraud will get single digits.

too late to stop McCain now.

Romney is a flawed candidate...

True. But so are McCain and Huckabee. Yet when only flawed candidates are running, one of them has to win.

Yes we know Huckabee can win the low IQ states but what will that do for him in a national election. In a real sense Huckabee has given the election to Clinton or Obama. Can we get a Constitional Amendment so that nobody from Arkansas can run for president again. Or better yet, if you lived in Arkansas for more than 5 years you are ineligible to run for national office. Let us end this now! NO MORE!

He was pretty good actually, but he is not a street fighter. And the President needs to know how to win a knife fight.

When people got to know him more personally, he had more traction. But I agree; he came close, but he muffed some important things.

The question is, does he really care and will he be back? Like Reagan came back after losing in 1976?

If he goes around the country after the debacle of the 2008 general election and does his best to rally Republicans back to conservative principles, then he will begin to earn his spurs.

I can't say for sure if under his business ad glitz that there is a real and decent man is true. I can only say I hoped so when I voted for him.

“Watch for Huckabee to continue to roll up victories in Louisiana and Texas”

Texas will never in a million years go to Huck.

Thanks for helping put McInsane in the drivers seat.
