The only GOP candidate with a snails chance is Christie, because he has governed as a centrist in a blue state. All the other GOP potentials are bat**** crazy to mainstream America.
We all know how you feel about politics so I doubt your opinion on Republicans mean a lot to most posting here. You go right on thinking that, is a few years we will see if you are right. Well no, you are never right, but you might once in awhile be correct.
I absolutely love to watch Huck, it is one of the few programs we try and watch weekly unless we are busy, but he is way to socially conservative to be electable. I would rather see him stay where he is, he is doing more for the country, just with his guests, his views, and attitude than he would do trying to run for President. I am afraid however, he will decide to run. Also like Laura said, his temper might just up and bite him, same with Christie.
BTW anyone who thinks Huckabee is status quo probably has no idea what he really stands for: as for his weight, he has lost some recently, just like Christie and how could anyone judge a good candidate based on weight or looks. If you are basing your views on looks, you certainly could not be supporting Hillary.

His foreign policy is invade and occupy. (which hasn't worked) That is the status quo.
His disregard for states rights at times also puts him in bed with big government. That is the status quo.
Bringing up morality as governments job is big government. That is the status quo.
Better than most because he usually stands by his convictions. But not consistent enough from issue to issue on those very same convictions, imo.

Sometimes status quo has to be. It would be great to elect someone who is totally his/her own person, but they would then have trouble working with others. To me, a person, has to learn what battles are worth fighting. I do agree with you on the invade and occupy. We need to get over that, but we also have to do what is necessary to keep our country as safe as possible. If that means stopping terrorist on their soil that is what it means.
Personally, I like huckabee, althiugh i disagree with most of his social stances. He was a very popular governor. He is way too conservative though to win a general election.

"You can't kill all the terrorists but you can kill the reason they want to become terrorists."
Huckabee can't win on a national level, he's popular with Christian conservatives, but that's about it. Christian conservatives are a powerful group, but not enough to win elections. I'm a independent moderate and I would not vote for the guy. I would consider Christie, Paul, Walker, Kasich, maybe a couple others. Huckabee, Perry, Cruz are too unwavering on their ideology and can't broaden their voting base.

Huckabee/Thune 2016 is how Republicans can win
