    I’d love to sneak into the head of a GOP voter when they’re thinking about Huckabee.

    “He’s the most conservative person in the race. But he likes the brown people! I can’t decide!”

    I know that the people you fund this blog are coloring its analysis, but a lot of us neutrals out there saw the Huckabee thing coming for quite some time.

    According to a poll released today, he’s in a statistical tie for first in South Carolina, and combined with the Rasmussen Iowa poll, that’s saying something.
