That’s what happens when you have the money to bus your votes in. Not that there’s anything technically wrong with it.

Romney's got the bucks, but Huckabee has two problems ~ he's from Arkansas (and Billzo probably retired that number forever), and he's absolutely the smartest and most reasonable of all the candidates.

Al Sharpton had that problem running with the Democrats the last couple of times.

Doesn't matter that Al's just not Presidential material, but with those Dems he was head and shoulders above them.

Same thing happens with the Republicans, and the MSM has begun focusing on Huckabee for "soundbytes" that even they can understand.

The Republican team next Fall (if there is a "next Fall") could very well be from the Governor's Team again, just like Carter, Reagan, Clinton and "W".

There is a pattern ~ and two Governors ought to beat a couple of Senators every single time.

So, which one will lead the ticket? My money is on the man with the money.

That’s how strawpolls work. They show the organizational strength of the campaigns. They also help to gain the winner more recognition and momentum.

Apparently not enough did. LOL

Seriously, Romney is the only one in the top tier I could hold my nose and vote for.

Doesn’t say much for the rest of the “top tier” does it? I’m not thrilled with Romney but I do find him tolerable but I’m still supporting my guy.
