Huckabee is "Paul Lite" to the Establishment

What's this sudden fascination that the mainstream media has with Mike Huckabee?

Here's the deal, plain and simple:

The establishment is scared to death of the Ron Paul campaign. They have realized that a Rudy or Clinton just isn't going to cut it.

Huckabee, while not the establishments first choice, is seen as different enough from Clinton, Rudy, Obama et al to attract voters if he's given an artificial boost in the political milieu.

They see Huckabee as better than Paul because Huckabee will continue on with the Neo-con war agenda.

The establishment is using Huckabee to run interference to Paul.
