Agreed--and we're seeing a preview of that. But mathematically, Huckabee pretty much has to run the table now, and it's really pretty unlikely. The only thing that could make it interesting is if he somehow gets the delegates that are already pledged to Romney. But that's up to a certain Massachussetts Mormon, and he's not one to rock the boat. If the GOP "brass" tells him to give his delegates to McCain, he probably will.
The way it looks now, one of Romney or Huckabee probably needed to drop out before Super Tuesday. If they had, we might be looking at a different race right now.
