Mike Huckabee Bravely Battles Math

Senator John McCain might have enough delegates to win the Republican presidential nomination, but that’s not stopping rival Mike Huckabee from soldiering on. Huckabee now has the opportunity to define himself as the only true conservative in the race with the guts to stand up to Big Math.

While other politicians worry about “percentages” and “sums” such as those found in polls and election results, Huckabee depends on a higher power. He said this weekend that when he was in college,”I didn’t major in math, I majored in miracles.” That rigorous training will pay huge dividends when Huckabee finally seizes the Republican nomination even though it is a mathematical impossibility.
