Mike Huckabee Watch: The New Iowa GOP Frontrunner

Presidential hopeful and former Arkansas Governor, Mike Huckabee, left, and his wife Janet Huckabee, address supporters during a campaign stop at the Spartanburg Gun Club in Pacolet, S.C., Sunday, Nov. 25, 2007. Huckabee is rising from a little-known Arkansas governor to a serious contender for the Republican presidential nomination and so, too, are the number of inquiries he’s facing over his ethical lapses, tax increases and unwavering support for a rapist, later convicted of killing a Missouri woman.

Is Mike Huckabee the NEW frontrunner in Iowa?

The latest Rasmussen Poll:

  • Mike Huckabee – 28%
  • Mitt Romney – 25%
  • Rudy Giuliani – 12%
  • Fred Thompson – 11%
  • Ron Paul – 5%
  • John McCain – 4%
  • Tom Tancredo -4%
  • Duncan Hunter – 1%

Holy Smokes, Batman, Mike Huckabee now leads in Iowa.

From Rasmussen: Forty-eight percent of Evangelical Christians support Hucakbee. That’s more than all the other candidates combined. Romney attracts 16% of the Evangelical vote.

Did you catch the Evangelical number? That’s called ‘lapping the field.’ Let’s think about this for a moment. If Huckabee actually wins Iowa, then he gets the slingshot effect going into New Hampshire. With his sunny personality, non-threatening manners, humor, and media-savvy skills – anything is possible.

Isn’t politics full of surprises?

Stay tuned…….
