    Ok, so now Huckster says gets his geography wrong in placing Afghanistan on the wrong side of Pakistan….then he “apologizes” for the death of Bhutto (HUH?)….then believes that martial law is still in effect in Pakistan (when it was actually over TWO weeks ago!)….all of this after his “…but, I stayed in a Holiday Inn last night.” - in reference to his lack of foreign experience! Yes - this man is dangerous and needs to go back to high school!!!

    BTW - Huckabee last year accepted $52,000 in speaking fees from a bio-tech giant that wants to research human embryonic stem cells, a non-profit working to expand access to the morning after pill and a group pushing to study whether tightening gun control laws will reduce violence.

    This on top of the fact that he accepted a speaking engagement for $10,000 from a fellow “friend” and pastor in TX…THAT pastor is a known anti-Catholic who has several times said that the Catholic Church is responsible for the Holocaust and has compared the pope to Hitler! What does the Huckster say to all this…..uhm - nothing!

    Huckabee and Clinton are both experiencing downward momentum in the last week prior to Iowa. Romney has the best GOTV organization in both states. Obama has positive momentum. It will be Romney vs. Obama in the general.

    If the popular votes are close, Giuliani could win many states…he stacked the delegates a long time ago. Only the delegates’ votes count.

    However, if the popular votes are NOT close, there are enough non-Rudy delegates to force all delegates to vote with the popular vote.

    This was also Hlllary’s strategy, but she also pulled in a ton of favors and cornered the market on superdelegates. Right now she has twice the amount of superdelegate endorsements (read votes) as Obama…that is like a two state lead. Yes, the voting started long time ago…but superdelegates will likely only make up about 10% of the total delegate vote.

    On the GOP side, Romney, McCain, Giuliani, and Thompson have comparable amount of superdelegate votes (20 to 35). However, Huckabee and Ron Paul have almost no superdelegate votes. That is why I say Huckabee is a distraction of controversy.
