...Romney has a much more extensive organization in terms of manpower," said Steve Scheffler, head of the Iowa Christian Alliance, who is not endorsing a candidate this cycle. "It's more of a challenge for Huckabee, but based on the makeup of the constituents it's certainly possible for him to win the Iowa caucuses. If I were a betting man today I'd say it's possible that it's 50-50 either one could...
...support that Huckabee is surging. Nearly half of the 400 likely Republican caucus-goers interviewed in a Mason Dixon poll earlier this month said they believe the ordained reverend's values were in line with their own, compared to 17% who felt the same about former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney and 8% for former Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson.

...talk about actually being President, recites a litany almost as familiar as the O'Reilly twins joke: He has experience, courage, honor. He often says he's the only true conservative in the race. And indeed, for voters to choose those familiar traits over the smooth optimism of Romney, he would need to be a very true kind of conservative indeed...
