Prayin for a Miracle

So this past week has certainly been an eventful one. Last weekend Barack Obama and Mike Huckabee were the winners of the weekend primaries and caucuses. However, on the GOP side, it would seem McCain has won Washington by a smige of Huckabee, but that has yet to be made a sure thing. Barack Obama increased his chances of becoming the Democratic nominee but not by much, he is still neck-n-neck with Hillary Clinton.

On Tuesday Barack Obama and John McCain took were the winners of the night. Mike Huckabee gave McCain quite the fight for Virginia before losing the state. While it's supposedly mathmatically impossible for Huckabbe to make any sort of comeback, he remains a popular candidate, who continues to prove somewhat of a challenge for McCain.

Mike Huckabee is said not to have much a chance since he lacks the number of delegates to be any sort of threat to the 800+ of John McCain. However, McCain is not without his own set of challenges. He tries his best to prove that he is a conservative candidate, a challenge met by the popularity of Mike Huckabee who has support in the evangelicals. Just last week Huckabee received the endorsement of Dr. James Dobson founder of the christian based family ministry, Focus on the Family. But did an endoresement like that come to late in the game for the former Arkansas state governor? This week in endorsements for McCain came from former GOP candidate Mitt Romney and former President Bush, Sr. And while McCain may be in the lead, he will have to prove himself, a statement also believed by current President George W. Bush. But while McCain must set out to mend fenses, Mike Huckabee must try to rally what support he can, and hope for a miracle. He'll also have to stop playing More Than a Feeling by Boston- lead singer, who supports Obama, doesn't like.

And being a first time voter, I'm still hoping I'll be able to vote for the right candidate. With so many issues to care about, and for the sake of the country, the next commander-in-chief better be someone who can take on the job and get it done right. I think it's time we all take a page from the book of Mike Huckabee and start prayin for a miracle.
