If Huckabee had not been in this race, Mitt would be our current candidate.

That said, I will be one of the first to admit that a) Conservatives, by themselves, can not a candidate elected; b) Conservatives, by themselves, can not keep a candidate from getting elected.

I am not talking about conservatives that are more interested in holding power – most Republicans fall into this category – nor am I talking about self-described conservative people that say they are conservative but vote anything but democrat.

I am talking about Conservatives that hold onto their principles and stand by their positions. Something Rush does, and Bill Bradley does not (if his support of McCain is any indication…)
