McCain Needs It More

I just got off of POTUS, where I was asked a question I have been asked a lot lately ... "Can Mike Huckabee keep going if he loses tonight?"

The answer, of course, is yes!

Mike Huckabee's charisma and amazing communication skills allow him to essentially live off the land. While he would benefit greatly from a win -- and the money it would inject into his campaign -- his communications skills mean he can survive without a win.

Nobody expected Huckabee to be where he is tonight, so he has everything to gain -- and nothing to lose. A second-place finish tonight certainly wouldn't be embarrassing for him.

While both candidates are, no doubt, desperate for a win tonight, John McCain needs this victory more than Huckabee does.
