I think it's quite entertaining now to watch Huckabee start to scare McCain. Romney got out at just the right time. Now Huckabee has just enough of a chance to raise McCain's blood pressure but no chance of winning. The closer he gets the more everyone will start to villify him for staying in the race and fracturing Republicans plus McCain is bound to start directing some of his nastiness towards Huckabee when he really feels pushed in a corner. With the only good candidate out of the running now, all that's left is to watch the soap opera unfold.

Huckabee is not a threat to John McCain getting the nomination. He cannot win without divine intervention. He obviously has another agenda in mind. There is NO WAY that Romney is going to pledge his delegates to Huckabee.

The longer John McCain has to focus on Huckabee, the less time he has to focus his full attention on the Democrats. And the longer Huckabee's stays in the race the more conservatives can express their dissatisfaction with John McCain. The more Huckabee wins the more shaky McCain looks as the Rupublican candidate.

What's really funny is that Huckabee is third in a two man race. He has no chance of winning. Not enough people watch the 700 club.

McCains V P seem to be Huckabee. That would put him in a good spot for accident prone Mccain.

McCain wasn't so smart when he encouraged his delegates in West Virginia to pledge their support to Mike Huckabee. He would have been better off to let the drama play out without his intervention. Mike Huckabee is also being played like a fiddle! He helped McCain while Romney was in the race thinking that he and McCain had forged some kind of "deal" in order to bump Romney from the race. After Romney steps down in order to keep the GOP party from further fracturing, Mr. Huckabee refuses to do the same. So, while he continues his quest for the nomination, surely in the back of his mind is the idea that McCain will see how acceptable Mike Huckabee is to the conservatives, thus making him the most viable candidate for VP. But, it looks more and more like McCain will shy away from the Huckster and choose possibly someone who wasn't even running for President. Hmmm........McCain got in bed with the "devil" when he made the deal with Huckabeein West Virginia, and now Huckabee is in the bed alone with his fond memories about all the fun he has just had. While---Romney is at home relaxing with his family and waiting for the convention. Hmmm......politics!
