VAN SUSTEREN: So what's your plan now?
HUCKABEE: We're headed to Wisconsin tomorrow. We'll be up there for a couple of days. We'll kind of see where we're going to be over the weekend, then we'll be back probably in Wisconsin. A lot of our focus over the next few weeks is going to be in Texas, in Ohio. Those are two big states. Texas is a state that's obviously next to us, close to us. We've got a strong organization, a lot of supporters in Texas. It's a very conservative state, and I think that's where we're going to do well because Texas voters, like all the voters of America, they ought to have a choice. They ought to have an actual election and have a campaign, not a coronation. And we plan to give it to them.
VAN SUSTEREN: Have you done the crunching of the numbers? Because I know this should be about policy, but frankly, now it's really about numbers and delegates. Have you done that number crunching to see, you know, if you're still in the game?
HUCKABEE: Well, the game may be for us to go to the convention, if nobody gets 1,191 delegates, and that's still a possibility. Until someone gets that magic number, we still have an election process, and there is no nominee. Once that happens, we've got a nominee, and it's time to rally around him. And so if that's not me, then we'll rally around who it is. But if we don't have one and we go to the convention, then we'll make the decision at that convention, and the delegates will decide. I'll have as good a chance as anybody.

The longer he stays in, the less he will have a political future.

He is too stupid to be President.
Huckabee now needs 76% of the remaining delegates to force a brokered convention.

You are just scared that a man of Faith in the whitehouse may stop the gravy train.

The longer he stays in, the less he will have a political future.No, those who want him to leave were never for him in the first place. He loses nothing by staying. The states that haven't voted yet deserve a choice. Huckabee is giving them one. If they choose McCain then it is over. This is still a republic and the people haven't finished voting yet. You don't get to dictate when the race is over.

An ever expanding budget while he was governor of Arkansas, with expanding taxes, with an expanding government and hundreds of millions more going to school administrators while not increasing the actual funding of classroom education.
Huckabee would continue the gravy train.

Everyday his reputation for being it in for himself and not the greater good grows.
Which is fine by me because I never want to see him on the evening news representing this party again.

I'm so weary of Huckabee inflating his importance. What is this "we" he is talking about?
He left the Republican Party in Arkansas leaderless and in shambles..So where is the "we" in Arkansas, Mike? Where?

What else do you expect from an unemployed proclaimed religious hillbilly politician that in all reality belongs in a bar band and living in a double wide?

I’m honestly unclear what that comment was meant to be. If it was not sarcasm, it’s wrong on SO many levels, I can’t even begin to deconstruct it.
Noone wants or needs a preacher-in-chief. The Huckasquirrel gives independents and a good number of religious folks the creeps.
