Tree of Liberty said

“”McCain is the only candidate that can loose to someone with over 50% who “will not vote for her, ever”.””

But keep in mind,

MCCAIN IS THE FRONT RUNNER, NOT THE WINNER!!!!!!

HE ONLY HAS ABOUT HALF THE DELEGATES NEEDED TO WIN!

People said Huckabee couldn’t even get 10%, couldn’t possibly win Iowa, couldn’t possibly do it again, couldn’t win any states Tuesday. He won five states Tuesday, and was ahead in Missouri for hours, until McCain finally caught up, then crept past him by one point.

So now when they say he couldn’t possibly win the nomination, I’m not buying that either.

It’s just a daydream of mine, but if Hunter would be Huck’s VP, would you believe his intentions are to do the right thing on the border?

Huckabee won his home state by a (pardon my southern term) WHOPPING margin, while Romney barely won his home state by a 10 point margin.

Who cares who wins New York, or Illinois, or the North Eastern liberal states that are DEEP BLUE, and going to vote democrap in the fall for sure anyway (barring some huge unforeseen event).

A republican president needs to win in the south to win in the fall, and enough Republicans hate McCain to give a Huckabee a good chance.

Huckabee got over 60% of the vote in his home state, 2nd place was only 20%, and McCain got LESS than 50% in his home state.

So if you have been paying any attention to the posters on here claiming to be Arkansas republicans who claim he couldn’t even win his own state, take a deep breath, and look at the numbers. T H R E E times as many votes, and the other guys barely won their home states. He won, BIG, compared to the other people they are telling us would be the winners.

Right now it’s just name recognition, and when most people get to know Mike Huckabee, they like him.

Likeability is something we will really need in the fall, against either Hillary or Obama, or a ticket with both on it.

A VOTE FOR HUCKABEE IS A VOTE AGAINST MCCAIN!!

HUCKABEE / HUNTER ‘08

Please. Nobody with half a brain would vote for the Huckster. Obama is more qualified to be president than that fool and Obama’s qualifications are nil. Heck, I’d vote for McSHAME before I’d vote for Huckabee.

Get a grip.

I was originally a Hunter supporter but since he got behind Huckabee I have lost respect for him. I live in AR and I hate Huckabee, I am not one of the blind Arkies who voted for Huckabee because he was their home-boy. Huckabee is the GOP equivalent of Clinton, believe it or don’t, I don’t really care. I wish all the Huckabee supporters here had him as their Gov.

Huckabee is under no circumstances acceptable.

Huckabee talked about frying squirrel meat on a hot plate. He also posed for that very strange photo of him being shaved. That was almost as bad as John Kerry in the baby blue sperm suit.

A candidate who makes foolish mistakes like that can't win, conservative or not.
