Super news! Congratulations Mike Huckabee.

I thought the lamestream media had you down as a loser.

Way to go!

This was my key race. I would have gone to bed very unhappy tonight (in spite of all else) if he had lost. It was a bit of nailbiter. The "almost" cheat in Pulaski County had my stomach churning.

By the way, Lt. Governor Winthrop Rockefeller, son of the man responsible for the birth of the modern Arkansas Republican Party was reelected overwhelmingly to his post also.

His political base in the northwest which is mainly conservative Churches abandoned him because he divorced his wife and remarried.

Lots of folks, even here on FR, say that he got his just rewards. But there is one less vote for a partial birth abortion ban so I'm not sure if their strategy was helpful to what they really stand for.
