Ugh...

[peyton randolph]

Evidence that some of the people can be fooled all of the time.

[NonValueAdded]

Strange valies, then.

[ColdWater]

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is the preferred 2012 GOP presidential nominee among Christian conservatives

Of course. Believing that the earth is 6000 years old is the number one issue.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I guess we didn’t learn anything in 2008. We’re running out of chances.

[jessduntno]

I can’t stand this...why?

WHY?

Not a SNOWBALL’S CHANCE IN TED KENNEDY’S NEW BACKYARD...

[elizabethgrace]

Not surprising. Huckabee gives a good speech and Sarah wasn’t there.

[Gatún(CraigIsaMangoTreeLawyer)]

Shaking head. Rolling eyes.

[annieokie]

Again the media is picking our nominee.

[My Favorite Headache]

If the GOP wants to sandbag another election then this poll is the way to do it. No way Huckabee...never.

[EternalVigilance]

The whole event is insipid. And that’s the nicest thing I have to say about it.

[PeteB570]

Oh,for goodness sakes, here they go again.

[mnehring]

I don’t believe, in recent history at least, the winner of that straw poll ever goes on to do well in the primaries. It is almost a kiss of death (I think because so many bring their own people to stack the polls it gives a false impression and screws up strategy).

[NotSoModerate]

Huckabee is a bass playing boob.

[Lexington Green]

Note to Repubs -

New faces with traditional values... or no deal

[behzinlea]

If Chuckleberry is the best we got to offer in 2012, I’m seceding my home from the union.

[Aria]

Huckabee got us McCain which got us Obama which got us an unmitigated disaster.

However, I just don’t see how any of our candidates could have taken Obama last year...zero lied so well that voters actually thought they were getting a fiscal conservative....at least now they know better.

[Repeal The 17th]

I wish there was as much concern about ‘oh-ten’
as there is about ‘oh-12’. Much work to be done.

[nomoremods]

Surprised at the low turnout; only 597 votes.

[jonrick46]

Is this evidence that the Christian conservatives are not paying close attention to the political landscape?

Anyone who is smelling the coffee knows its between Sarah Palin and Mitt Romney. And Sarah has been 100% on the money with everything she has said. Mitt comes off as a smooth talker which brings out too many negative associations.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Who cares? I sure as hell don't. It's a meaningless unscientific vote.

Besides, I noticed they didn't do online voting this time around, and I think it's because they didn't want people outside the status quo being able to vote.
