Mike Huckabee Continues On, Makes Stop at University of Maryland
Posted on February 9th, 2008 at 4:45 pm by JarenAfter McCain cleaned house on Super Tuesday and Mitt Romney’s surprise farewell at the CPAC speech on Thursday, it seems that there is little room for anyone to make a jump in the GOP primary race. However, Governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas vows to continue.
I was able to see the governor speak at the University of Maryland, where I am currently attending, today. He spoke mostly of economic issues including taxes where at one point he actually shredded a 1040 tax form.
In an area that is, to say the least, a bit left of center politically, it is not surprising that he did not spend much time focusing on social issues but rather fiscal issues, education, and coming from little to propel himself to the place where he is now.
While the chances are looking dim for Governor Huckabee, let us not forget that no one thought he would win Iowa, no one thought McCain would even make it past summer, etc.
But, he was all but written off by one important conservative voice…Karl Rove. At his new gig, FOX NEWS, Karl Rove explains Huckabee’s dim chances with his devolutionary white board.
