We agree again. Huck once had the religious right all to himself, but it's a different day now.
I'm sure he still has good will with his fan base, but so does Cruz and a bunch of newer and fresher folks.

The best Huck did in 2008 was a distant 3rd place. He's neither fresh nor different than his opponents. I don't expect him to get very far.

I do agree with you there; he'll probably be forced to drop out early.

When your title includes Baptist Minister you will Never be the GOP nominee not to mention President of the United States of America. Why on earth would he run, does he actually believe he as a chance?

I happen to like his personality as I have mentioned before. Other than that, I have to ask the same thing. Had he decided to give it a go around in 2012, I would have been behind him 100% even if I don't like his social conservative stands on a lot of issues. This time, we do have a lot of younger, newer faces to support.I got a call from his headquarters last night asking for my support. Of course I said no, and I will continue to do so.

Thought you backed Ron Paul, you would have switched to Huckabee, really? I am not against everything he stands for, there is no candidate I disagree with 100%, but there is enough for me to not consider voting for him over many other possible choices.

Holy cow, no. I really didn't like any of the rs last time around, but did vote for Romney. I was hoping Perry would show his good side, didn't happen. I actually liked Newt the best, regardless of his private life.I was always arguing with the Libertarians in 2012.

But he hates gays, for many Republicans that is all that matters.
