The evangelicals consist of 35% of the GOP...not 51%.
There will be a disproportionate turnout of evangelicals in Iowa...and Huckster doesn't need close to 51% to finish first there. He gets 75% of the evangelical turnout, he wins Iowa.

Okay, got it.

When I read the screeds on the board, they represent the opinions of more than Iowans...so I'm inclined to use my example in the general... not the primaries.

IOW, how would the religious right affect him vs. Hillary.

If he gets 75% of the evangelicals nationwide does he win?

Supposedly some dems have endorsed him and cited his achievements.

Ulterior motives? Not when you read why they like him.

And that only tells me to expect some Reagan Blue Dogs to crossover.

I wonder if the venom toward Huckabee would subside if he finishes in the money. They're Harrieting him big time.

Pat Robertson won Iowa. Really! He did. And that was pretty much the end of his campaign. I expect perhaps a bit more from the Huckster, but not much.

And you were right, though he didn’t get the full 75% it appears.
