Absence makes the heart grow fonder

Has anyone considered that Huckabee is doing so well in Iowa because of no other reason that he hasnt had enough money to be able to run around and annoy the hell out of those folks out there in Iowa? Is it possible that Huckabee is in fact the "none of the above" candidate? and it really wouldnt matter who it was in his position, because he's essentially bounded by the idea that hes not "not one of those guys"

Heck anyone could fit that bill.

Think about it. Fred Thompson was doing fine until he started running. He starts running and look what happens. Tommy Thompson stopped running and his numbers went up!

But lets think about it for a second like an Iowan (Iowan? Iowander? Iowandite?), youre an average Joe standing in line at the local "Maid-Rite" and practically every day some schmoe from the political class who wants your vote is going to show what an average guy he is by "Just showing up and getting something to eat here at good old Maid-Rite, all impromptu dontcha know. Why it happens every day here in the Senator/Govenor Haflblab campaign office, we love Iowa dontcha know. Hey buddy, let me and my 6 sharp elbowed campaign staff get in there for the katchup bottle and a quick photo, ok my friend?, how 'bout those Buckeyes hahahaha..."

After 6 months or so of this sort of daily nonsense, your vote is probably going to go to whatever candidate or party doesnt show their face and disrupt you in your all to short lunch hour. Oh look, its John Mccain - again! Well check him off the list. Romney? get outtahere man, im trying to eat fergodsake...

Maybe the way to wrap this sucker up is to not run at all and to tell everyone thats what you are doing? Heck by that logic, I'm probably doing pretty good in this campaign.
