Newsweek's Alter - A Case for Huckabee

Newsweek's Jonathan Alter makes a case for Mike Huckabee as the GOP nominee saying he is the GOP's best bet in beating the Democrats.

Huckabee comes across more hopeful than Giuliani, more believable than Romney, more intelligent than Thompson and fresher than McCain. He would hold the base and capture moderates drawn to his down-home style. His greatest asset is that he alone among the Republicans "speaks American." He connects to his audience with stories and metaphors and a geniality that can't be faked.

Interesting.
