Please take the challenge Ian. You enjoy giving all of us your opinion so why not show us the facts. Are you following the model of Mike Huckabee? He never answers the question directly, never provibes suitable facts that would make his arguments believable. Mitt Romney had to explain to all to the listeners at the debate that Infrustruture, though a much needed, is not a short term solution to get the economy going. Mitt Romney came across like someone who understood Infrusture, the economy and how it works. After Mitt Romney pointed out the weakness in Mr Huckabees comments, Mr Huckabee came acrossed like someone who does not understand the economy. Mike Huckabee will never be able to gain the trust of the American conservative base. He has come across like someone who would make a better stand up comic/entertainer than someone who is serious and competent leader. Mitt Romney is a much stronger candidated than Mike Huckabee despite the media pile up and all of the dirty tricks, he has the popular vote in our country.

First of all, when you are only staying in a presidential race to position for a VP slot, it is easy to debate. He had it easy. No pressure whatsoever. Three questions for you:

1) Why does MH never answer any direct questions with direct answers? Without exception, a direct question is answered with a big smile and a joke. Then he changes the subject. Every time. Nobody really calls him on it, because they simply don’t care. he no longer matters. So why not?

2) At what point in the next 40+ states do you expect MH to win more than 5% of the non-evangelical vote? Three days ago in a giant southern state (Florida), MH won whopping 4% of all non-evangelical votes. When you look at his stats, he did worse than Fred Thompson who wasn’t even in the race! Both FT and RG are super bright people and therefore decided they would waste their supporters’ money to stay in. In which states do you think MH will win more than 4% of the non-evangelical vote?

3) MH knows he cannot win under any circumstances. He knows it just like FT and RG knew it. So why does MH stay in the race? Ego? Self-centerdness? Vanity? Maybe I am missing something here so please enlighten. He barely wins 1/3 of all evangelicals. So with 1/3 of all evangelicals’ votes and 5% of the non-evangelicals’ votes, show me how he will ever win. I am completely open to your logical explanation.
