The BIG suprise of the night..>Huckabee wins 5-6 states...

[sfam]

This really does change the dynamic on the right. I think Romney is dead if he doesnt' win CA. And Huckabee almost forces McCain to put him on the ticket. This is GREAT for us, as less independents will support McCain with Huckabee on the ticket.

1. I'm very surprised by that, too. I thought Huckabee was totally over. n/t

[liberalnurse]

7. Indeed a shocker!

:wow:

2. Whoever turns out to be the Democratic VP nominee

I'm salivating over the VP debate with Huckabee!

5. Dem wins it by merely saying, "I believe that Evolution is valid science" nt

3. Just goes to show you that Republicans are still stupid as a bag of rocks nt

4. Is the Repug turnout very small?

Could be that nobody but the diehard flat-earthers, who smell a possible victory for one of their own, are coming out to vote.

10. There was a well

coordinated effort with the McCain camp to deny Willard Mitt Romney victories in several areas.

[halobeam]

14. Absolutely.

Absolutely. Absolutely. uh, what was I saying? oh that's right... Absofuckinlutely. no, that wasn'it, but it was really close.

6. Clearly Huckabee is the candidate of choice for

the wingnuts who hate McCain and are suspicious of Romney's religion. Very good news. If Mittens drops out, this becomes a 2-person race that could be very divisive. The last thing McCain wants to be forced to do is stick the Huckster on the ticket.

[FlyingSquirrel]

8. WRONG

Huckabee on the ticket reassures the Religious Right and makes McCain's ticket that more of a Republican juggernaut

[Bucky]

12. I doubt he'll put Huck on the ticket, but he'll certainly be able to help choose their veep

Huck's gotta know he's toxic. Anyone who'd lose to Mittens does not have cross state appeal.

[uncertainty1999]

9. WOW!

[depakid]

11. How do you figure that?

:shrug:

13. I'm not super surprised actually.

The guy is very disarming when you actually look and listen to him. A lot of his coverage I've seen is pretty disarming. After digging deeper of course, he's dicey, but I do get the "likability" thing down south.
