The state of Kansas chose Mike Huckabee as its Republican candidate of choice today. I didn’t make it out to the caucus because my preferred candidate on the Republican side is now out of the race.

I don’t get these people that like Mike Huckabee. I’m guessing that they just want something different out of Washington or they like his big cheeks. I don’t trust him. He seems like a guy who is trying to be clever. I just don’t see him that way. For a minister, he just seems entirely too slick. Too much like that dude who sells the holy spring water (isn’t his name Piper?).

Huckabee’s win in Kansas signals one of two things: either the state is (like I said above) very tired of politics as usual (which was evidenced by Obama’s overwhelming win here on Tuesday) or there are WAY more evangelical voters in the state than I thought.
