The Internet WILL NOT win you an election. He must get out and work/walk/talk/bs Iowa and New Hampshire 10,000 times harder than the others. He has to get past stage one to even have a chance at president.

Not that I want it, the republican party doesn't want it (backfire), but it looks like Huckabee is going to be the man to beat. Christians I guess are the majority, making this a real problem.
Right now the republicans are trying to "out conservative" each other. There isn't a candidate the hard right really loves and they have come out and said they may choose not to support any of them. With their support a candidate can win the primaries and has some strength going into the general election, without the primaries are anyone's game and the general election will very hard to win.

Huckabee looks good right now, but lets wait and see. Eventually he is going to have to leave the bible belt states and go into larger states where he is still running 3-4 behind rudy and mit.
