APPLETON, WIS. -- Former President George H.W. Bush may have endorsed John McCain, but Mike Huckabee is not flinching.
"Believe me, everybody likes endorsements," Huckabee said to the crowd of about 150 who had braved the windblown terrains of central Wisconsin to see him. "But this isn't about endorsements, this is about principles."
It was all he mentioned of Bush 41's endorsement in his speech, but it was a follow up to the press conference avail that preceded the event, where journalists peppered him with questions on the matter.
A reporter said critics were calling the former president's endorsement a death knell to his campaign, to which Huckabee responded, "Well, does his voice count more than the millions of Republicans across country? Blue-collar Republicans that maybe don't have the platform he has -- do their votes not matter?"

It doesn’t change any votes, or the outcome of the nomination contest.
McCain has to make it to the convention. I’m sure Huckabee is concerned about his health.
Anything that gets a TV camera in his face is fine with Huckabee. The poor dupes who are knocking themselves out to campaign for him aren’t in on the joke, but for Huckabee this is all about keeping the money rolling in.
BTW - Message to John: Ditch the sweater and, for the love of Pete, stop with the “My Fiends†shtick already. Who is advising this dimwit?
My Friends
and his oversized ego.
Not to worry, I’ve been called lots of things by Huckabee supporters, none of them nice.
