Mike Huckabee - evaluating the GOP Hopefuls

[JoeB131]

Last night, he quit his Fox TV show. His two viewers were very sad.

Anyway,

Pros - Former governor of Arkansas. Strong support within the Evangelical base.

Cons- Let a lot of guys out of prison who went on to do really bad things. scares the bejesus out of Wall Street.

Mike has shown an ability to run a strong campaign on a shoestring budget. He's got solid, blue collar street cred.

the early contests in Iowa and South Carolina benefit him.

tv and radio shows have him on the record with too many extreme positions to be a viable general election candidate. in a primary he might serve to pull the field in a more socially conservative direction - to the detriment of the GOP.

Well, since he quit his Fox gig, I say hell 95% made up his mind to run.
