Reply #5: I think Huckabee is their best candidate really.

He's funny. He's populist. I don't agree with his religious views but IMO he'd be the best candidate they got for the middle class.

I think the evangelicals have actually been fucked by the GOP. They've turned out in droves for them based on the moral issue, but at the same time they have essentially voted against their own economic self interest since most are not rich.

Huckabee gives them somebody who agrees with their values but also would try to help them economically also.

I wouldn't vote for him but I can think of much worse candidates getting the nomination. Like Mc Cain or Guliani
