If Huckabee runs, he wins. He's the only candidate I think who beats Obama in most circumstances.

He is referring to a vice-presidential nod.

He also said he hasn't thought about changing his mind yet at all, though it is a possibility.  More double talk just to pump up his audience.  Less sincere than even Trump.  Huckabee is out.

Mike Huckabee would make a fantastic Vice President for the record. We'd get to have him around to give Huckamazing speeches and be the nice guy that he is. At the same time, he couldn't go all "Let's execute Julian Assange and quarantine AIDS patients" crazy on us because he'd have no real power.

Win-win!

Speaking of trump, he is probably going to run third-party if Romney or Pawlenty win the nomination if you listen to his comments tonight.

Most circumstances? I think he'd probably have the best chance of any Republican in the general election, fund raising issues aside, but he would still be a slight underdog at best.

From the polls, it seems Romney is the best Republican candidate, with Huckabee a close second. Which in itself shows how surprisingly weak the Republican field is.

If he would have decided to run, I don't think fundraising would have been the issue it was last time.
