Survey USA is currently taking a series of polls to determine the VP candidate (Out of Governor Huckabee, Senator Lieberman, Governor Pawlenty, and Governor Romney) who will help John McCain the most.

So far they have taken polls in Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Virginia, California, Ohio, Iowa, Kansas, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Oregon, New York, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Alabama, and Kentucky.

In almost every case, Governor Mike Huckabee has been shown to be the most helpful candidate for John McCain in terms of winning votes.

Huckabee is the people's choice, He has won every legitimate internet VP poll, some by landslide proportions. Many Democrats are trying to get anyone else to run with McCain. I think McCain will be smart enough to pull the trigger, name Mike, and get rid of the dead wood who caused the catastrophic mistakes of the past 8 years. Now if only we could also get rid of Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, George Will, Charles Krauthammer, Fred Barnes etc. They are the real enemies of the state.

Most Potiticians talk the talk but can not walk the walk. Huckabee bikes the bike cause he is quicker than those other guys.

I STiLL VOTE HUCKABEE.

Hasn't The Governor denied these blatantly slanderous charges yet ? ! ? Oh that's right : Governor Huckabee is visitng in Japan at the moment .. .. ..

They like Bikes there !

The Japanese are not Bike-o-phobic or too FAT either ( in general ) !

This should be music to everyone's ears. If we would all ride a bike once in a while not only would we be healthier but so would the ozone. Just one more reason to love Gov. Mike Huckabee.

Yeah, let's all be "dorky " and save the ozone layer ...cut down on carbon monoxide emissions and maybe then people could think more cleary too !

Looking forward to seeing the Huck on Faux News...He at least has some real insightful straight talk to convey to the average Joe and Jill.,,,

( for" Main Street USA", as Huckabee calls her !.)....

OH Yeah ! ...If we had only known then what we surely know now (about the two preumptive nominees ) we would have picked Huckabee in Florida "hands down" (but there was some shenanigans with that, too, I fear.).

Oh, and A BIG Mention to Lou Dobbs*** for revealing NAU, Nafta's & the TCC underpinnings (ouch).

I got back from Amsterdam in Sept. They all bike, have special lanes and parking lots designed for bikes only. With the cost of gas, I'd think those who keep driving gas hogs should be called dorky. We should teach our children NOW to ride bikes. Maybe we will all catch the spirit of biking to conserve man made energy and observe more energizing habits to keep us fit.

JB of OK 5:34PM June 16, 2008

We applaud Gov. Huckabee's ‘lead by example’ spirit on preventative healthcare AND fuel savings. It takes true integrity to act as you speak. We will be writing in Mike’s name in November if he’s not on McCain’s ticket.

AD & DD of WA 10:01AM June 16, 2008

He duly qualifies for this Hucka-comment ! ! ! This is truly incredulous !

Dismissing Huck as “unserious” and ignorant about economics ?....While He even rides a bike an eco-car daily ???? .....Not to mention he beat the other candidates on money spending..... Coffers average of a 20:1 ratio.

(H Clinton, Thompson, Guiliani, Tancredo, Romney, Edwards, Gravel, Paul )

Sounds frugal to ME ! ...Plus he wasn't reaping OUR tax-payer government paid salary while doing it !

YES !... I vote: Huckabee to squeeze the buckabee !

Yet, when Mr. Bedard ( author of above anexeste ) utters such heresies aloud you know there’s a little VP mo a-buildin’ ! Watch out ! No wonder he didn't post a real photo !

To Deviate to a nugget of Knowledge:

We’ve been over the various merits and demerits of Governor Huckabee on the VP ticket before this "propro" ! But let’s try a different angle on economics, shall we ? :....Are there any other candidates who deliver more "right off" the bat than the governor would ? Placing all aside , consider this:

It’s questionable to imagine conservative America warming up to Palin or Jindal over the course of the campaign, but it’s even that much easier to imagine a collective shrug or shirk in their direction !

Maybe Palin would siphon off some of Hillary’s "girl power" ; maybe she wouldn't .

Jindal is of a mellow, non demonstrative temperment like Mr Mccain...Hmmmm.

Romney with the recent attack on his beliefs and lifestyles of his is questionable as well in the news....and Huckabites would NOT even go to the polls (Romney waged a 500, 000 smear campaign against Huckabee which could not be founded but left hundreds of thousands of wiser Huckabites as

anti-Romney )

this aside , the main thing is that Ultimately we simply don’t KNOW how much they’d deliver. On the contrary, with Gov. Mike Huckabee you know "on day one" exactly what you’re getting !

1) The Big One : Enthusiastic goodwill among Christians, Catholics and other Moral Majority Members ! ... Even the Jewish Vote..... Also Southern Blacks

( "crucial " input this year with the "divi-up" )

2) A dynamite media political "powerhouse", and the populist economic rhetoric that make you like the guy and gets ya "Right here" !

3) A balanced rep ticket !

4) An eco-friendly bike rider in the White House !

So, simply put: The only question that McCain & Co need to ask is this One :

" How badly do WE want to WIN " ?
