It must have something to do with the water in the South. Jimmy Carter. Bill Clinton. Now Mike Huckabee. There’s more chutzpah in that trio than in any East Coast politician.
Barring a heart attack, John McCain will be the Republican presidential nominee. Still, Mike Huckabee won’t quit. I won’t quit, either. It’s the water from Arkansas. I have it sent to me by the crate. It’s a little known secret, but if you drink a lot of water from Arkansas, go into politics or religion, you’re likely to have a miracle or two.
Growing testicles seems to be the most common side effect.
Personally, I think Huckabee is praying for a miracle, assuming that a John McCain heart attack is part of the Lord’s plan for Republicans this year. What is really interesting about this campaign isn’t that long shots actually have a shot, it’s that nothing is for certain.
First, the Democrats all but anoint me, and along comes Barack Obama, all but dead in the water six months ago. Then, the Republicans leave McCain for dead alongside the Giuliani Train, and guess what? His honor spends $50-million for a delegate. That’s a worse deal than Romney got.
Finally, after McCain is resurrected to glory, Huckabee keeps winning voters and delegates. He’s the Little Engine That Could. Or, he just doesn’t know how to read the writing on the wall. You’d think that a religious man could figure out what’s really going on.
It’s the water. Either that, or God loves resurrecting losers just to see them fall again.
