Huckabee would be smart to quit GOP race

February 15th, 2008 at 09:34pm Chuck Sweeny

You’ve got to wonder why Mike Huckabee is staying in the presidential race. Sure, the former Arkansas governor has won some primary elections. But John McCain can’t be beat because there are not enough delegates left to beat him, even if Huckabee started winning.

And if Huckabee did want to win, he would be in Wisconsin this weekend. The primary is Tuesday, Feb. 19, and where is Mike Huckabee? He gave an interview to the Milwaukee paper on Friday, but The Washington Post says he hasĀ  headed south for the weekend, to …

Grand Cayman Island, where he is giving a lecture for pay.

If Huckabee wants a future in the party, and I believe he does, he would be smart to get out of the race now, endorse McCain, and hope for a vice-presidential slot with the Arizona senator.
