Huckabee is a true Republican in an era dominated by moderates masquerading as Republicans. He is almost universally liked, even though some don't agree with his views. Romney is not a social conservative, and Palin is not respected by the media. The Republican party needs someone who will stand up for Conservative ideas and can articulate those ideas to the American people and the media in an intelligent, down-to-earth manner. Huckabee is that man.
