MSNBC has called Louisiana for Mike Huckabee. Sure, Huck got fewer than three in ten non-evangelical voters. But among Pelican State evangelicals, who make up 58-percent of Republican voters there, Huckabee got nearly six in ten votes. With Mitt Romney out of the race, a religious rift has opened in the GOP. One more sign that the era of George W. Bush, who bridged that rift so effectively, has ended.

It’s not as interesting

BTW, I just noticed that Huckabee has gotten increased evangelical support and no movement of the needle? What’s up with that?

I meant his GoM rank
I certainly didn’t like Huckabee’s message — I’m not into class warfare. Sorry, I could care less how much CEO’s make.

I didn’t goose Huck’s GOM reading because increased evangelical support didn’t seem to translate into Huck being a straight up theocrat, which 10 signifies. Last time he was at a ten, Huck was saying things like “When we become believers, it’s as if we have signed up to be part of God’s Army, to be soldiers for Christ.”
