A good polling day for Mike Huckabee. Huckabee is moving up at the expense of Mitt Romney in Iowa, New Hamspshire and South Carolina where Evangelical Christian voters are prominent in the GOP.

Huckabee appears to be moving up at John McCain’s expense in New Hampshire. Remember McCain won the New Hampshire primary in 2000 against President Bush.

Watch for more attacks, particularly from the Romney camp (especially watch Romney hagiographer Hugh Hewitt) on Huckabee’s SoCon credentials – a constituency that Romney needs to win in early states.

Stay tuned……
