I like Romney’s chart, steadily increasing his support. Rudy is turning for the worse and Huck is a flash in the pan.

Going from 14 to 17% isn't much to get excited about...

Willard is terrible candidate. He has bought 18,000 ads nationwide and outspent Huckabee 10-to-1 in Iowa and still isn't the front runner.

Huckabee's artificial position in the polls serves a good purpose for Romney. It helps Romney keep expectations low in key states to pull off an "upset" on election day. If he was the major frontrunner and won in those states, it wouldn't be all that newsworthy. If he is the underdog who brings off a win despite Huckabee being ahead in the polls, then he gets even more news cycles and an even bigger wave to ride into Super-duper Tuesday. There's no way that Huckabee can withstand the withering campaign media blast that Romney is capable of pulling off days before the election. Huckabee lacks the money, organization, campaign wits, etc. to survive it. I wouldn't want to be in Huckabee HQ in Iowa any time in January. It's going to be ugly.

Anybody that supports Romney needs to become a Democrat. Check out his history and you will find he is a liberal trying to imitate a conservative.
