Huckabee Vaults To "Top Tier"
Todd ranks Huckabee #4 on the list of Republicans behind John McCain (1), George Allen (2) , and Mitt Romney (3). Of Huckabee, Todd says:
"Short of McCain and Warner, no presidential candidate seems to be getting better press right now than Huckabee. He's come a long way from the guy who was on the brink of political death in 2002. If there is a "social" or "movement" conservative that has a legitimate shot at doing well in Iowa, it’s Huckabee — even more so than Sam Brownback. Huckabee’s got a smoothness to him that Brownback doesn’t have. In fact, Huckabee could be a lethal insurgent candidate in Iowa. He has to answer the money question, but if he can get into the $25-30 million range in 2007, he’ll be a force to deal with."
Kudos to you, Mr. Todd, for doing your homework!
Onward and upward,
