I’m not a Huckster supporter at all, but why the glee?

Would he pull primary votes from somebody you’re favoring?

A) he divides up conservatives.
B) he pulls funding from conservatives.
C) in the off-chance he won, he’d govern against conservatives.

I think the concern was that he would pull the evangelical vote for the “true” conservative (TBA). Which I understand.

I like Huck and could have voted for him but of course he was not the perfect candidate.

I don’t know about glee, but I’m delighted he saw the light. Huckabee is fine for state politics, but as a president we need someone who will take Onada and the left head on with no holds barred. Sarah has been doing that for almost two years now. Herman Cain and LTC West are very attractive to me. Also Bachmann. The rest of the Pubbie field are semi-committed conservatives (Tea Party wannabes), RINOs, libertarian elitists or worse.

I don’t have a favorite, but I have a list of unfavorites and he is on it. (As are Mitt, Ron Paul and Newt.) Everyone else I am open to taking a look at and listening to before I decide.
The above 4 are nonstarters for me.
Oh and I don’t think Palin will run either.

“Why the glee?”
He’s a RINO and would not have the intestinal fortitude to do what is going to be necessary to defeat Bam: Come out with both guns blazing and take him apart limb for limb for the absolute hypocrisy of all of his policies. Calling all Reagan Conservatives! Can you hear us now???
