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 [...]
Wow. Is January 2008 half way over already? My how time flies!

Mike Huckabee is now 1st in national Republican Primary Polls (Rasmussen Reports) [picture above borrowed from Huckabee's website]! He’s a close second in two other national polls (details here).
I’ve got more to say on Huck, but for now, let me point you to my Huckabee blog: Go Huckabee! I compile links, videos and [...]

Update: For a post which lays out the reasons why Huckabee is a genuine conservative and can appeal to all 3 conservative factions, check out this post from Evangelical Outpost (Joe Carter, with Matt Anderson and Justin Taylor).
Momentum is Mike Huckabee’s friend right about now. He’s been riding it for quite some time.
Huckabee scored [...]
