Romney and Huckabee both sounded great in their concession speeches.
Romney sounded downright populist in talking about the need for the problems of the middle class to be addressed and he positioned himself as a Washington outsider with a track record of producing change. He sounded good. He's not out.
Huckabee sounded like the guy people liked again. His poor debate performances over the weekend raised the question about whether he had the chops to compete. But he was gracious and funny.

Romney doesn't care one damned bit about the middle class or the poor, despite how populist he may try to sound now.
And Huckabee was quoted today by the Washington Times as stating that he would like to see a 28th Amendment to the US Constitution such that children born of illegal immigrants are not granted US citizenship. That's just un-American! Neither of these men deserve to be president.
PW:
I used to like Huck.
If that's true, emphasis on USED TO.
Just checked washtimes.com. Huck has backed off -- but Paul has restated his support of revoking birthright citizenship.
And he still claims to be libertarian. Honestly, folks -- kooky is as kooky does.
