IMO, if everythings counted cleanly, florida may have an impact on account of its somewhat large population, but won't skew the election one way or the other.

Bush and Huckabee are completely different. Bush is a neo-con, not an evangelical conservative. There is a very big difference.

True... Bush followed the Neo-Con playbook his dad helped write, act christian and get their votes. Huckabee is actually an Evangelical Christian, but his not following the Neo-Con playbook. Bush talked christian, but was never one. Huckabee talks Christian, and is actually a Christian... huge difference.
Remember, the Evangelicals are pissed at Bush, they feel lied too, and after 6 years nothing has happened to abortion. So Evangelicals actually did their research, and rallied behind the one that was a religious leader, and even though he didn't speak conservative politics, they liked him because he was a true Evangelical. There is no marriage between Evangelicals and Neo-Cons, Neo-Cons use Evangelicals to stregthen their base. BUT it looks like the Evangelicals are leaving the Neo-Cons and finding their own leader. This could be the split of the Republican party the same way the South left the Democrat party in '68.

Huck is Horrible.

your man is a con. He made as much money in a day as John Edwards has in a quarter, and the only thing I've seen from him is a billboard in San Bernardino. His pocketing the money and you all were fooled. If he cared about winning, he'd have his support in NH, a state he should be the front runner in.

its really no different when it all boils down. bush lied, huckabee didnt. woopty doo; both will/have manage/d to net the votes of conservative closed-minded christians who will follow any apparent homophobe pro-abortion candidate out there.
Trauma-san:
You mean anti-abortion. Conservatives generally aren't for abortions. Unless it's your secretary.
