Wow...you guys need to calm down before your heads explode. I am a Huckabee supporter 100%. He should and will stay in this race because we, his supporters want him to. I and many many others would never vote for Romney. The more you try to force him down peoples throats the more he is despised. So you all are the ones that are the spoilers for Romney....Sit back and ride this train until the end............
Mike Huckabee stay in this race we support you all the way.....

Huck neare even, leads in more states

Huckabee is near even with Romney nationally and leads in more states.

Huck is the true conservative in the race and that is why he has never lost his core body of supporters.

Once he makes his second surge, he will be the next Republican candidate for president of the U.S.

Welcome to Disneyland!

...and here is Fantasyland where Mike Huckabee's supporters seem to have found a nice place to set up camp.

Good grief.

There will be no second surge.

Every serious commentators has said, and will continue to say, that the national race is really between Romney and McCain. These two are the only viable candidates when it comes to facing Hillary or Obama in November.

So, I think we have the answer according to his supporters: Huckabee is in it to win it. It's a shame really. Huckabee will be remembered as the Ross Perot of the Republican Party. Remember Ross Perot? The guy who was instrumental in giving us 8 years of Bill Clinton?

...and one more thing

for SS,

There are, so far, only two states where Huckbee has come out well: Iowa and South Carolina. In all the other races, Romney has beaten Huckabee by factors of 2, 3 and 7. Perhaps you should rethink your definition of "spoiler."

You shouldn't get your hopes up too much--even Ron Paul beat Huckabee in Maine today.

HAHAHAHA!
