took the words out of my mouth =].

My how quickly so many of you were shown to be patently wrong because you failed to notice just who really had a grasp on the flow of American social events.

[1Hope4All]

Oh how I wish he was still running! He would definitely get my vote if he was!!

[Psychobabis]

"I am not a republican because I grew up rich.  I am a republican because I did not want to spend the rest of my life poor, waiting for the government to rescue me."

Right you are Huckabee.

[nrobyar]

This man is an inspiration and role model to America (not just to Republicans). He speaks from his heart, without a teleprompter. If you saw hin in the debates, he never had to stammer or search for words because he is so comfortable with himself and confident of his platform. He had over a decade of experience and is ready to lead. Offered us the Fair Tax, the best fix for the economy. Vertical politics. Huckabee 2012!!!

This speech was awesome! An all-time favorite for the nutshell rationale for being Republican that makes it plain and simple, yet so true! The Lava Soap joke is a keeper, too.

[Stophocles]

Huckabee is awesome

[HebertForHuck]

Mike nowadays is by far the most prominent republican...i think republicans are thinking why didn't this men get chosen?..huge mistake republicans, he was the only one who could've beat Obama...Maybe his own tv show could help McCain beats Obama...don't you?

[ntf284]

I think he'll get his chance. He's so cool.

[1980PintoMan]

Palin is obviously just as good, or better at public speaking and McCain will destroy BO in the debates. McCain is a quick thinker and knows his stuff. BO's answers will be, "Uh, uh, uh, let me think, uh. . ." Huckabee was my first pick but McCain will win by a landslide.

[HarleyFnDavidson]

"1989PintoMan" has a great point. Obama is a great speaker ONLY if he is reading. He can't say a damn sentence without going "uhhh..." or "umm..." Obama may be pretty popular now, but just wait until the debate when McCain eats him up. Also Palin, did have foreign experience like negitiating oil pipelines with Russia. Biden however sucks, like he opposed many good things Reagan did and as well as the troops surge. The surge is great because now we are wining! McCain-Palin 08!

[nrobyar]

There is quite a difference in delivering a speech written by someone else and talking in debates and out on the campaign trail, on talk shows, etc. Huckabee is ALWAYS sharp, always on his game. I have never seen a more brilliant speaker. He is a strong man who is very comfortable with himself and his beliefs in his platform. Great record on education, health care, endorsed Fair Tax, and a strong immigration platform. Huckabee for 2012!!!

[nrobyar]

Huckabee makes sense, is sensitive to the needs of this country and connects with people on a level most people can't even comprehend. He ran an astonishing race, little money, no big name endorsements, (except Chuck Norris) and a mini organization. The man got there on message and messenter alone. He is amazing! His time will come.... The big name endorsements are behind him now because he has proven himself to be the future of the Republican Par;ty.

[RockyBalboa211]

Well chuck Norris is a big boost lol, yeah Huckabee's a great guy!

[ConZdepaZta]

USA elections are pathetic... If a candidate is black, if a candidate is a woman, if a candidate is a war hero... Just a show for mass media. Huckabee dignifies USA politics. Obama, Hillary, or even McCain for me are the same shit, just marketing. ( I respect McCain because he is a war hero, but, this is USA elections, not US army. )

[jill5000]

We need to hear more from Huckabee, he has real commonsense. He was easily my first choice, but McCain/Palin is no question who my vote goes for.

[hslvn5]

Huck was GREAT last night. See we have our socialist marxist people spouting off at the mouth above. They are sitting around waiting for the government handouts...gimme gimme gimme, while babies are being murdered.

[chukmaty]

Huckabee just showing why he is far from dead politically.

[archimmes]

Fundamentalist wacko.
