If you're looking elsewhere, how about Huckabee? He went one-on-one with Matt Lauer and did not back down on his "doors of the ovens" comment. For the life of me, I don't understand why that's offensive. Is it now offensive to speak colorfully and use analogies? It looks like Huckabee's getting on stage, and he was very clear about not condemning Trump.

Huckabee was getting momentum against McCain when the elite declared the competition over and McCain the unstoppable person for the nomination. My point? Huckabee is not on the establishment side.

Walker? It seems the more people see of him, the less they like him. He's looking like the Chamber of Commerce's plan B (JMHO) It does seem he's being groomed instead of just being himself.

That debate stage could get interesting if the only establishment guys up there are Jeb, Perry, Rubio, and Walker. Can't see them standing up to the others.

Maybe...but what the heck do I know. I'm just a country boy with a pea brain. It's about all I can do to keep track of Cruz frankly.

Walker? He's been okay, but there are some here who are supporting him that are causing me to very seriously consider dumping any consideration for him. Huckabee? Not on my radar, as I said, I'm a back slidin' country boy with a pea brain.
