Since we are into Cracker Squire Archives, how about one on the GOP mover and shaker, Gov. Mike Huckabee

I've been saying for a long time that Mike Huckabee could be man to watch in GOP presidential nomination race. The following is from a 9-1-07 post that is partly entitled "Former Arkansas GOP Gov. Mike Huckabee and Keith Richards":

You will enjoy this article in The Washington Post about Mike Huckabee who was named by TIME as one of the nation's five best governors in 2005. He raised his national profile by losing over 100 pounds through diet and exercise, and has been in the news lately by coming in second in the Iowa Straw Poll on August 11.

You will enjoy even more this video on his pardoning Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones. Click on this link.

And to bring us up to date, see a new Time article entitled "Why They Love Huckabee."

And Tom Baxter writes in the Southern Political Reporter that in the latest good news for a campaign on a roll, former Huckabee has moved into the lead in a poll of registered South Carolina Republican voters.
