Huckabee: I Believe In Miracles – And I'm Not Dropping Out
Despite calls to exit the GOP race to pave the way for John McCain to become the Republican Party's nominee for president, Mike Huckabee told conservative activists today that he would continue with his presidential bid.
Huckabee rejected claims that he has little chance of becoming the GOP's candidate because of McCain's significant lead in delegates. McCain leads Huckabee in delegates 709 to 163, by CBS News' count, with 1,191 needed for the nomination.
"I didn't major in math," Huckabee said the Conservative Political Action Conference meeting, according to the Associated Press. ``I majored in miracles, and I still believe in them.''
``There are only a few states that have voted - 27 have not,'' added Huckabee, who CBS News projects will win today's Republican caucuses in Kansas. ``People in those 27 states deserve more than a coronation, they deserve an election.''
The former Arkansas governor later vowed not to drop out until McCain has the necessary 1,191 delegates – and maybe not even then.
``I won't drop out until at least that happens, then we'll see,'' he said.

John McCain would be the oldest president if elected in US history.
John McCain is not a true conservative. He is against the 1996 Federal Family act, human cloning and wants to keep the borders open.
Mike Huckabee was the first candidate in the Republican primary Dr. James Dobson ever endorsed. Huckabee is the true conservative candidate.
In 2006 the Republican''s got hammered and lost both the House and Senate because of the "My way or the Highway" stance on the Iraq war. How can John McCain win the general election with the same type of philosophy to stay there 100 years? He will absolutely lose in the general election.
If you are a Republican and you want to keep the Republican base leading, you must seriously considering voting for Mike Huckabee. He has the stamina, desire, intelligence, wit, charisma, experience and honesty to lead this nation at this point in our history.
Vote for Mike Huckabee!!

We do not want Mccain.
Talk radio and media tried to convince Americans to vote for Romney in order to stop Mccain.
Romney robo-called by the millions to try and trick voters into thinking Huckabee had DROPPED OUT of the race prior to Super Tuesday. That was unethical and our Republican party should have stood up for the people of America.
You can see the proof here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jk6IJS3QN34
That initially damaged Huckabee but we the people are still fighting hard. We WANT HUCKABEE!!!!
Please, if you are in any upcoming State, take to the street to wave Huckabee signs, contribute on his website, and get out and vote! No exceptions. If we stay united we can still have Huckabee as President.
Huckabee just won Kansas 60% to Mccains 24% and we can get these results in all of the remaining States.
WE LIKE MIKE!
