Given the lack of a conservative alternative candidate that is strong on social issues, Evangelicals and are flocking toward Huckabee. Why wouldn't they? Huckabee is the best candidate on those issues.

Because he is the con artist you accuse Mitt of being. The Huckster has absolutely no foreign policy experience at all, none, zip. And we are fighting int’l terrorists and two wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, in case you didn’t notice. He knows NOTHING about foreign policy. I wonder how many trips he’s even ever taken abroad. He’s from a dinky little backward state of Arkansas, just like Bill Clinton was, even from the same town of Hope. Bill played the saxaphone, the Huckster plays guitar. Both are smooth talkers with quaint little phrases, one is a baptist minister, the other trotted around always holding his bible in his hands on Sunday. The similarities are way too close for my tastes. And he’s basically pro-immigration, tax hikes, in-state tuition for illegals, and had ethical problems in Arkansas. And he has smooth talked his way up the ladder with no background experience in running anything other than a two-bit dinky state.
Romney built up a company from scratch, and is a CEO. Romney saved the Olympics and brought it out of debt and into the black. Romney ran a much more sophisticated high tech state as Gov than did Huckabee. Romney has led the most conservative lifestyles of all the frontrunners. Huckabee hides his wife because she ain’t so pretty. So, all the one-issue evangelicals flock to Huckabee based on his religion, and nothing else. Such myopic behavior will be the ruin of our Party. And the bigotry of it all disgusts me, that to base one’s decision as to who should be the President of our country should be based on what that person’s religion is. What mental midgets.
