Maybe that’s why Rasmussen has started using Intrade results.

Huckabee has surged because he won a couple of debates and he’s got evangelical support. If a quick rise can happen to the liberal pro-life evangelical Huckster, it can happen to the conservative pro-life evangelical Hunter.

According to Intrade, the winner of the December 12th GOP debate was... Duncan Hunter.

Why the smart money is on Duncan Hunter

In this poll Hunter is up 3% and even with Paul and Thompson.

By virtue of experience and philosophy, Hunter is probably the best Presidential material of all the candidates. Too bad our Presidential campaigns have been reduced to glamour contests.
Nope. Not a chance. I like Hunter, but he has no personality to speak of. That's why he resonates with almost nobody, not even in our own party. The only winnables in this election are Abortiani (charm; 9-11; a nightmare for our party if he wins the nomination, causing him to almost not be winnable), McCain (media favorite; moderate; war-time P.O.W.), Paul (antiwar Republican; small government, rebellious Libertarian; would draw votes from the Democrat side; will never get the nomination, though), and Huckabee (not perfectly conservative, but is the most conservative of the winnable candidates; great personality and sense of humor will stand in stark contrast to the Hildabeast; great debater). Of the winnables, my vote is certainly for Huckabee.
