A Serious Contender Suddenly

Here is some positive analysis from the Weekly Standard on Huckabee's shot at winning the republican nomination.

It would be a mistake to assume that he'll be unable to broaden his appeal. Huckabee is an extraordinary communicator--by far the best speaker in the Republican field--and his rhetorical skill helped Iowa voters see him as a plausible president.

Unfortunately portions of this article, along with the commentators in the media, are still making the mistake of underestimating Huckabee by his financial situation. First they said he couldn't will Iowa against Mitt Romney's money and organization, but then when he did, they came up with reasons why it was an exception.

Now they are trying to say the same thing about the rest of the nomination. "Without a huge war chest no one can compete on Super Tuesday" they say. Certainly money can help almost any campaign, but in the end people still vote because of what they think of a candidate, not how many comericals they've seen.
