    This should be good. If the SNL writers can't make funny with this guy they should go back on strike.

    Maybe they'll just let him share his views on evolution and other scientific matters.

    Hats off to Huck as he did engage in a bit of poking fun at himself with the math joke.

    His own stuff is much funnier, my favorite "... we've had a congress that spends money like John Edwards at a beauty parlor". :D

    Thw question is when does Huck drop out if at all? I could see him staying in thru Mississippi next week. Just because he might do well there and pick up a few more delegates.

    Well, McCain wrapped up the vote, so his gamble that McCain would have a stroke and not be able to continue didn't pay off. But on the plus side - he wasted the money of christian fundamentalists up until the end

    If that is the plus, it was not much of a plus. He mostly campaigned on a shoestring budget.

    I think he was trying to tell the GOP establishment that they can't take the Christian conservative vote for granted. I'm sure he already knew he didn't have a chance, but by running as long as he was mathematically alive, and then quitting as soon as--but not before--McCain clinched it, he was sending a message. And, of course, positioning himself as the leader of, or at least a major player on behalf of, an important constituency.

    I guess God either isn't all powerful, or wasn't on Huckabee's side. :D

    Actually God was on Huckabee's side. It was an act of love to keep the Huck from all the evil trials and tribulations of being the president of the United States.
    :D

    Well, for one thing, he's going to start a PAC.

    It's a countdown to God's impending judgment day for the Internal Revenue Service, on which He will pour down sulfur to obliterate the agency's 90,000 employees. In the aftermath, the lost sheep of this land will repent and heed the words of prophet Huckabee, and the Fair Tax shall bring prosperity for all.

    I just did my taxes last night, and as a single childless person in an apartment without large medical bills, that doesn't seem like such a bad a thing to happen.

    But I don't think it is related to taxes because the countdown ends at noon and taxes can be mailed up until midnight. He also isn't running for anything (except vice president).

    ...which turned out to be the right answer. The goal? To elect Republicans nationwide.
