Some quick comments on last night’s CNN/YouTube Debate.  I once again thought Mike Huckabee did very well and probably won the debate.  A survey of Florida voters and Iowa voters echoed this.  You can find that poll HERE.  I also thought Mitt Romney did pretty well, except for his stumble over the question of whether […]
