How come the evangelicals rationalize everything Mike says and does? They don't apply the same logic to other candidates? Cult-like.

Terri,
Dose that right go for the unborn? If we need someone that is for everyone I guess that would leave Demo. out.

I am very happy to see that the "religious right" vote is not as powerfull as they thought, maybe now we can satr putting this country in the direction of facts instead faith.

Bill,

I am not evangelical or even actively religious, although I grew up catholic. By the same token as you say a person of faith doesn't represent you, maybe many of us would not be comfortable being directed by someone who doesn't have faith. There are a lot of people of faith, not just evangelicals, and please explain to me how a person of no faith has any business representing the VAST Majority of people who have some faith? No one can represent everyone equally, but voting for a person of faith is not a crime, no matter how much people who have none would like it to be. Mike Huckabee has said in numerous interviews that he deeply respects the rights of people of even no faith, and wouldn't have any problem having someone in his cabinet who was an atheist. You are wrong on this. I don't see people castigating women for voting for Hillary, or blacks for supporting obama, why is it so surprising that people of faith find Huckabee such an acceptable candidate. You are the one being the least tolerant here.

Huck will stay in the race even after its locked up and official. He doesnt have anything better to do, he's unemployed!
He's said a few too many things earlier in the campaign which I believe will leave him unelectable.

Has anyone ever considered if the 'religious right' weren't christian…and they were jewish, or muslim…would we be courting their 'platforms'?

why doesn't the republican party purge that fringe from their party?

if huckabee is the vp, i'm leaving this country.

we need laws, and more than 10 of them. and we need someone who understands that EVERYONE has a right to be represented under the constitution, not just christians.

hillphil - at least use your real name. Ann Coulter.

If you like Huck, what do the Democrat's offer that would keep you from voting for McCain? the answer is nothing.

I hair many times that many analist from CNN said is no posible for Mike Huckabee make enogh delegates.tying to dispate the people to vote for Him
the media should let the people decide for whom they want to vote and not try so hard to inflent them.

Samething with Obama the media has play enormes role favoting Senator Obama
nothing personal with this Senator but He is not ready yet.

Thank you

Bill, you are right on the money!

GO MIKE, GO!!

Hey Bill, leave Brandon alone. Why is it that the the religion of non-believers is more important than believers? It seems that you believe Huckabee is impossing his beliefs to get votes. He is not! He just telling the truth and that is what people are looking for. I thought that was part of what freedom of religion was about. He his not going to make people believe what he believes. It just seems that the left is affraid of God but runs to other religions and likes to force their belief of non-belief on others. I don't believe Huckabee will win but aleast you know where he stands.

No, Brandon and Mike you ARE superstitious MORONS. This religious HUCKSTER has no business being in the presidential race.

When all is said and done, all the votes are added up and analyzed, two lessons will be learned from this years primaries. First, the majority of the American public will not vote for a guy who believes in a cult religion, and second, they will not vote for a guy who does not believe that evolution is a fact.

Its not about it his religion to me and our Founding Fathers said religion and politics should be kept seperate. Him having a strong religious background makes him a plus for me. To me its a matter of Mccain running as a Republican in name only he holds very few of the values that traditional Republicans hold. He is not a Conservative. Huckabee is.

Go Mike HUCKABELIEVE!

Governor Mike Huckabee from Hope Arkansas; keep hope alive, nobody ever lost sleep from dreaming about prosperity.

Had Fred Thompson removed himself before the SC Primary, it would be Governor Huckabee in the lead instead of McCain. McCain took the South Carolina momentum into Florida and Thompson fled because his sole purpose was to ride shotgun for McCain. By this political atrocity, both of these “legislators” did their Country a disservice. Mike Huckabee is the best man for the job without a doubt, he has the vision necessary and speaks with clarity that I haven't seen in decades. I hope that the rest of the Nation understands the consequences of sending the status quo back to Washington.

The reason that “change” is sweeping the country is because Americans already have all the experience needed and required. Lest we forget, experience has us in the current predicament. As citizens, we have the experience of balancing a budget, the loss of jobs through unfair trade guidelines and illegal aliens, the increased price of gas while oil companies enjoy record profits, the cost of goods and services, health care costs, witnessing a war and seeing life and Liberty spilled on foreign soil without cause. We as a Nation have lived with this kind of experience long enough. Don’t underestimate the American resolve, in this election, the status quo is just not good enough.

The nominee should be a candidate who wants to "alter" the course of direction that the current administration has taken us, it will be a candidate who is determined to thwart the efforts of special interests in Washington focusing instead on the interests of those he serves. Someone who places people above politics. Someone with intelligence and wisdom, honor and integrity, strength and morality, one who will bring about a level of prosperity that this nation has never seen and a vision that is recognized by the world as exemplary. A candidate who understands that when you sling mud, you always lose ground. One, who is more focused on the issues than insulting their respective opponents. That is the only candidate that will earn and receive my vote. I hope to vote for my candidate this year!

America, vote your conscience, it's the only chance to get our Country back. Mike Huckabee is my choice and after voting on the Democratic “Presidential” ticket for 32 years, he is a candidate that can bring a Nation together. He also gives the Country a new face in Washington with fresh ideas and a zeal that places people above politics regardless of race, gender, religion or political affiliation. The Democrats understand the total validity of the campaign and realize that the Republicans will be lose in November unless they get behind an honest contender. By lose, I mean more than just the Presidential race.

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!"
Benjamin Franklin

He's more of a Republican than McCain. If you more experience is the determining factor just think of this…Dick Cheney has more experience than most people and can you imagine that nightmare scenario.

Individuals that want to stop teaching science shouldn't have a chance to be President.

Jose he doesn't believe in Evolution..how is that smart

I do not mind if people don't agree with those of us who choose to vote for Mike Huckabee. What bothers me is when they choose to denigrate our beliefs and refer to us as being nothing more than morons and crazy. If we have reached the point that people cannot vote for who they wish, then our entire system of choosing those who represent us has ceased to exist. And yes, I will vote for John McCain in the general election, as I feel his values would more closely align with mine than those of the Democratic nominee.

Yeah for Huckabee!

I believe as do many folks that Mike Huckabee is the conservative choice of many Americans. I believe that it just may take someone like Mike to put America back on track. Go Mike Go.

but if we all vote for Huckabee, doesn't he then become the most "popular"? So then we would have to vote for someone else. Politics is so confusing.

I'm a Obama fan but I gotta say I like this guy. Keep him in the race. It might make the Obama v. McCain race interesting. Just hope I don't regret this post

I voted for Huckabee but looks like in november I will vote against McCain
Go Democrats!!!!

Brandon, most scientists who have actually finished their schooling don't believe the dogmas of the church. However the point is, what many of us who are non-believers object to, is the imposition of religion on the political process. Any candidate who has to court large religious groups and kow-tow to their belief systems, is not going to do a good job of representing the rest of us e.g. W with his faith based initiatives, or his blocking of stem cell research, or sticking his nose into what should be between a woman and her doctor.

Huckabee has not said one thing that implies he wants to impose his religious views on anyone. He couldn't, anyway. All this "religious zealot" talk is just fear-mongering.

McCain-Huckabee '08!

I second Brandon's statement, and I'm an electrical engineering graduate (with honor). Do your research Bill, and you will actually find out how stupid evolution looks when put under the microscope.

Lets make our vote REALLY count and not vote for most "popular". Huckabee way to stay in race and fight for what is right.

Huckabee's just burning money by staying in this thing.

I'd call the people voting for him crazy for thinking he has a chance of winning, but compared to some of the other things they believe, this is relatively normal.

It's probably just a "protest vote" anyway.

what do your dogmatic beliefs in the church have to do with electing a President? we're not electing a Pastor-in-Chief.

Also, where does McCain differ in these beliefs that Huckabee does not?

McCain is pro-life and for the rights of man everywhere. No Guantanamo, no torture. The only wrinkle that McCain has is his support for funding for current embryonic stem cell lines. he is against creating anymore. He feels it would be a waste just to throw away these valuable cells despite the immoral way in which they were brought about.

I hope Huckabee keeps winning a becomes V.P. for McCain.

It's time this country directly debated the role of religious myths before we have a civil war. I'm fed up with religious superstition screwing up science and our intelligence.

Congratulations to Mike for fighting for his cause. He obviously represents Republicans who do not like McCain's positions as much.

Funny,
I'm in my second year of college, and I believe almost every dogma of the church. And I'm not a moron. I'm a physics major.

He is smart man…

What is this guy still doing in the race?

Well Hallelujah and amen! Ride on Dark Horse!!! What's wrong with being RIGHT all the time? Folks if you have not heard Mike speak to CPAC you really need to listen to it…you will conclude that he is indeed a genuine conservative and that despite Talk Radio at first endorsing the likes of Guliani and then Romney…ouch, and pretty soon McCain…ouch.

I am thrilled that Mike Huckabee understands how important it is to allow every US citizen the opportunity to to vote for the candidate of their choice in their party, whether that candidate is leading in the polls or not. The presidential primaries occur once every four years. I wish Mitt Romney had stayed in the race long enough for every citizen to cast their vote for or against. I just want to be heard, no matter how small my voice.

Aren't Huckabee's religious supporters the same people who believe the cavemen rode dinosaurs to work?
