I’m no great political mind, but I wanted to share a few thoughts, or rather observations.
Like most, it seems a little hard to believe that Hillary supporters are supporting John McCain in large numbers. Both Clinton and McCain do have quite a bit more experience than Obama, and they are much more widely known. Still [...]

I was stunned by Romney’s withdrawal from the race. Pleasantly surprised but stunned nonetheless.
But rather than Huckabee’s chances improving, it seems that the pundits and media are ready to declare McCain the winner. Romney didn’t want to prolong the primary stage of the campaign, and it is feared that Huckabee would just be [...]
No. It’s not because Romney’s Mormon and Huckabee’s Baptist. I contend Huckabee’s evangelical support goes deeper than that. The roots of his support are grounded in concepts the political punditry and main-stream media can’t seem to comprehend.
Evangelicals are a multi-faceted bunch. We are controlled by a Scriptural, and highly moral ethic. [...]

Huckabee’s Night
Mike Huckabee surprised a lot of people, including me. The polls showed him declining in the south, with either McCain or Romney taking those states from him. Instead he won Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, and also West Virginia (full results here). He came within a few thousand votes of taking Missouri, [...]
Huckabee won the first state of this Super Tuesday. West Virginia gave its 18 delegates to him.**
He upset heavily favored Romney to do so, and that may be a harbinger of things to come later tonight.
Romney, and his supporters have everywhere trumpeted the notion that a vote for Huckabee is a vote for McCain. [...]

McCain is not a foregone conclusion. And it certainly isn’t a 2 man race. While the polling numbers aren’t great for Huckabee, he’s quite close to Romney, statistically sharing the number 2 slot. He’s come from behind in the past, so don’t count him out.
Vote for the candidate with the best message, [...]
Congratulations to Huckabee! He won Iowa by 9 points, 34% to 25% over Romney (with 95% reporting).
You will want to listen to his victory speech. It’s good, and only about 5 minutes long.
Plus this is a good bonus 5 minute interview clip from FoxNews.
Way to go, Huckabee! May the momentum continue.
Before I [...]
I hope this video clip of Iowa voters who recently switched their support (largely to Huckabee) paints a true picture of what we can expect today. I sure hope Iowa places a deciding vote in Huckabee’s favor today! Go Huckabee!

Mike Huckabee has an outside chance of winning the Republican nomination. It all starts today with the Iowa Caucus. Perhaps his biggest negative is a common assumption that he can’t win it all. He’s too conservative and too Baptist.
In a brilliant move, Huckabee landed an appearance on the Tonight show with Jay [...]

I hope most Republicans have learned by now that the New York Times and fair journalism are polar opposites. So when the Times takes one short statement out of an 8000 word interview, ignores the context and makes it into a big issue, you’d think Republicans (at least) would know enough to pass this [...]
