I agree with you regarding Huckabee who I predict will crash and burn in no more than two weeks once his past catches up with him. But I think this will have the effect of alienating voters from "religious" candidates altogether which will include Mitt. That will leave Fred Thompson. As for the Democrats, I hope it's going to be Hillary but I am not so sure. She is losing momentum, Barak is gaining it, and after the dust settles, it will probably be Edwards who is left standing.

I went to high school with his nephews and met his brother a couple of times. They're all bright. Yogi's a pretty smart guy.
