2. No

the republican establishment wouldn't let that happen. Too much of a loose cannon.
I can see him getting mentioned as VP if he does well in florida

3. Who are they going to pick and how are they going to pull it off?

I don't see a way to stop him barring it going to the convention.

4. Yes! It's time for Move On etc. to obliterate McCain and Huckabee

before they gain traction.

The worst thing we can do is become too smug. Huckabee and Mccain are still very serious threats.

5. I honestly don't know...

Three races three winners so far...

Huckabee will probably win South Carolina...but who knows...

And I wouldn't count out Guiliani just yet...he's been under the radar for some time now...the stuff that drove him down in the polls is probably having less affect now...

If he wins Florida...watch out

6. I think the GOP Establishment is scared sh*tless of him

And I'm sure they'll do whatever they can to stop him, but I'm not sure he can be stopped.

9. Ask me again in a few days after the "comeback kid" headlines have subsided.

The GOP would be Crazy to nominate anyone but him.

10. If you're going to say McCain is inevitable. you should easily be able to tell me how.

The fact is that he's not inevitable. He doesn't have anywhere to go.
