Huckabee has too many nanny state values to be viable.
He is 110% defeatable.
He is EASY to defeat as the goober from hope. Hillary only has to run against huckster as a surrogate for clinton. A nanny state big taxer who can be hung out with the anti-walmart sentiment.
Who is better though ?
Romney is slippery. Thompson looks sleepy. Rudy supports abortion. I like Duncan Hunter, but he does not have a legit chance.
Huckabee has an awesome personality. I think people are still underestimating him.
and he wants to shut down the IRS. Thats a winner.
Mike Huckabee is Bill Clinton minus the Rhodes scholarship.
