Only after he signed their pledge

NumbersUSA stated no such thing. They grilled Huckabee on a set of questions to vet out any amnesty weaseling and Huckabee passed. That's why they gave him an "Excellent" rating.

Anybody can answer some questions. Heck I’m pro-life but I could probably withstand a NARAL question and answer session and come out having them convinced I’m pro-abortion.

I was present in North Greenville University when Huckabee signed the pledge. Yes, Roy Beck did interview Huckabee before agreeing to appear with him at the signing. I would note however, that in terms of an overall rating for both past actions and present words, Romney and Huckabee are rated excellent with Paul being good and McCain abysmal.

Not exactly, I do stand corrected on part of my original statement, but the original statement of your's still wasn't correct. (I was doing this from memory)- he was upgraded from "Fair" to "Good" (not Excellent) in his overall rating (upgraded on 01/16/08) and it was because he added one sentence to his website:
In the other direction, I have UPGRADED the amnesty rating for Mike Huckabee from "fair" to "GOOD" after he added a key sentence to his official amnesty policy on his website...

The only candidate currently in the race they have rated Excellent (according to this article) is Romney)- I wouldn't rate him as such.
