Richelieu: Give Huck the Hook
February 8, 2008 • By Richelieu

The Huck should take a lesson from Mitt Romney's classy performance yesterday and fold up his medicine show. Romney did a lot today to show the country and the party the classy and principled Mitt Romney that his friends have known for years. (One tribute to the guy is that everybody who works for him loves him.) It was the right thing to do and Mitt deserves the credit he'll get for it. Meanwhile it is hard to find a purpose in Huckabee trying to run much longer. The delegate math is even harder for him than it was for Romney. The Huck hasn't won a primary outside the south. He has no money. Sure, he can continue to plug along and almost certainly lose DC, VA, and MD next week, but to what purpose? I guess we'll wait for that and next Wednesday morning Gov. Huckabee can examine the math, think it over, and do the right thing.
