Edwards sex scandal ruins him with the less partisan Democrats. Huckabee is tie to George W. Bush's ~35% approval rating, as Texas made McCain, his main competitor, drop out, and President Bush's endorsement is what most believe to have sent him over. Giuliani is endorsed by Senators McCain, Lieberman, Bayh, King, Chafee, Snowe, Specter, and Lincoln, Governors George Pataki and Charlie Crist, the majority of the Blue Dog Coalition, and the majority of the Republican Mainstreet Partnership in the House.
