Clearly the followers of Jim Jones...I mean the Huckster... have worked out in their sheeple minds why the Huckster took off in the middle of the campaign to go to the Caymens..he says for a prior book signing commitment....who paid for wifey’s all expenses...multiple times to Las Vegas..the huckster penchant for not coming clean about his so called degree....and any defense of his goof ball son(s).

As to this Value voters group they must be strongly allied with the Taliban.....same mentality

Democrats will salivate at the chance to face him. The MSM will immediately paint him as an out of touch, christian zealot.

Straw polls are a joke. It really is just seeing who can bus in the most of their supporters. Which is more of an exercise in who know how to get people to the poll instead of who the people really want to win.

I refuse to vote for the Huckster or what ever they call him he is part of the reason we had the Corpse cast upon us.

I can’t watch his show on Fox.

It’s like a talent(less) show for political wannabees.

Not worried in the least. For one thing Huck was there and gave a rousing speech. Palin doesn’t need the conservative cred imho, she can skip this stuff. If Palin runs just watch those rallies and watch how her presence controls the news cycle every single day. Huckabee will be a fine decoy.

12.4 percent preferred former Massachustts governor and presidential candidate Mitt Romney. Other strong contenders included Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who won over 12.23 percent of conservative voters. Former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and Indiana Rep. Mike Pence came out in in a virtual tie at 12.06 percent and 11.89 percent, respectively.

OK. The difference between Romney and Pawlenty was 0.17

The difference between Pawlenty and Palin was 0.17

The difference between Palin and Pence was 0.17

But for some reason, the reporter thinks Palin and Pence were "virtually tied", while the others were not.

If 0.17 is a "virtual tie", then really all 4 of these candidates were in a "virtual tie".

Oh, and in case you haven’t figured this out, there were 597 votes.

Each vote would translate to, you guessed it, 0.17%. Or more accuratly, 0.167%.

So, in fact, the difference between each of these candidates was 1 vote.

Name recognition is everything at this point in the game. And .. explains to me why Huckabee went into TV.

However, I am more in favor of choosing a person the left hates. The reason: If the left hates my choice of a candidate - that means the left is really terrified of that person. Being terrified of that person can only mean one thing .. the left believes my candidate can win against them.

A sure way to gage a person’s strength is when the left DOES NOT ATTACK THEM - ergo .. Huckabee. Which means that the left is not in the least worried about having to beat Huckabee. All they have to do is brand him as a Bible Thumping Preacher, and the election is over.

I don’t think so. Let’s do a national survey of only republicans and we will see who is the favorite. I’m putting the RNC on notice, if Huckabee, McCain, Rudy, Mitt or any other RINO runs for president, I will not waste my vote on them. The results will be the same as 2008 if they do. I will vote third party or write in Sarah’s name. Period.
