He is trash just like Hilly and Billy from Arkansas. No offense to anybody living in Arkansas, but really people. Would you consider moving?

From the thread above, it is hard to tell exactly what the delegate numbers are. If Huckabee staying in gives us a brokered convention, I am all for it....even though I am not for Huckabee. But if it comes down to it, I would vote for Huckabee over McCain.

STOP the gravy train? What about amnesty and free college education to illegals? What is your definition of gravy train?

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

I see that as a good thing.

As long as he has the money to do it, let him keep running his campaign. If people want to keep funding his campaign, it's their money, they can waste it however they like.

He doesn't stand a chance. He never did. They only reason he is doing this well is because so many conservatives hate McCain and don't have any other choice. He has even worse chances in the general election than McCain.

I just hope he makes enough of a fool out of himself that we won't hear from him again after his campaign ends.

One more thing. About the “man of Faith” comment, so was Muhammed.

Hukabee staying in the race causes McCain to have to spend money that could be saved to go after Obmama later. Pack it in Huckabee and McCain may give you a seat in his cabinet.

I forgot how chubby he was! I wish he would exploit his weight loss a little more and his religion a little less.

Glad you liked it. Although it is like shooting fish in a barrel.

Huckabee now needs 76% of the remaining delegates to force a brokered convention.

Actually, only 70%, rounding up. But what's a few percentage points among friends? Virginia and Missouri both hurt his chances to force a brokered convention. It's funny to look at the difference a few things made. With no Thompson entry, it appears that FReepers would be in a panic to stop Huckabee. With no Romney entry, the same thing. A couple more points in Missouri, Virginia, and Oklahoma where he was close, and he would need 52% to force a brokered.

McCain could still blow up in public or his health could force him to drop out. There's no reason for Huckabee to drop out.

Yeah, no kidding. He’s starting to make himself look like an even bigger buffoon than Ron Paul, and that’s not easy to do.

You sound exactly like somebody from the New York Times. Or the Boston Globe. I think your comments are pretty indicative of where many of Huckabee’s opponents are coming from, though.

Huck isn’t my candidate, but..he isn’t trash either. He has every right, and I, as a person who has yet to vote in the primary, appreciate the fact that he gives me an option other than the scum McCain.

What harm does Huck do by staying in the race other than to point out what a POS and nonstarter McLame is?

Stay in it Huck, even though you were never my 1st, 2nd, or third choice. You are tougher than the rest of the so called conservative weenies who have already backed McCain.

Funny you hucksters always bring up the FAITH. Surely someone that is afraid of the GRAVY TRAIN being turned off (except for the gravy the huckster will give illegals) would be afraid of the regardless of the faith of the person turning it off. The reality is you don’t care what a liberal he is, he carries the same bible you do. And that blinds you to the rest of the man. I would LOVE a Conservative Man of Faith to be in the whitehouse.
But just being a man of Faith won’t get it with me. We are electing a president, not a pastor.

I don’t know about that. He left the state with 100% Republican appointees in place, for one thing. He was unpopular with Republicans enough that they voted for him overwhelmingly in two reelection bids... wait, that doesn’t fit the template...

If Axlrose wants Hucklebee in the whitehouse, he or she definatly has an appetite for destruction of our country. Welcome to the jungle!

Before anyone says I’m not a Christian or I’m not for the troops. I’m born again southern baptist, have two uncles that preached until the day they died. My father and all 5 uncles including those that where called to preach served in the military. 4 served in Vietnam, one didn’t come home.
My brother and I are both vets.
And neither one of us will ever vote for McCain or the Huckster.
