Why Huckabee Won and Can Win the Nomination

Huckabee Hangs Tough...While Smiling

Huckabee is a political genius. Cash strapped, he got more free publicty with stunts that Barnum and Bailey could only wish for. He never compromised his message and remained about as positive as one can be under such sleep deprivation conditions. While the press kept looking for floating crosses and wondering if this or that was some some dooming gaffe, the voting public was much more understanding and forgiving. Here is a guy you can talk to. He is sincere. He has real ideas, such as the Fair Tax, that are bold and he does not back down from his moral beliefs. Being a marathon runner he held on until the end. He will make it to the White House on the strength of his policy ideas and his new brand of positive populist conservatism. Huck will take a set back in regionally prejudiced New Hampshire as few non-incumbent southerners fare well there, but then he will continue to rise.
