Mike Huckabee - Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee continues to make impressive appearances in the media. Despite the fact that he hasn't raised the money needed to make a run at the presidency, he will eventually, so long as he does what he does best. That is, talk. Huckabee is a very good talker. His speaking skills make him a daunting opponent for rival candidates.

The question about Huckabee and his presidential chances hinge on America's reaction to past ethics lapses. Huckabee has been dogged by opponents in Arkansas for accepting inappropriate gifts from friends.

If he can power through the ethics baggage unscathed, he will likely win the Republican nomination for President of the United States.
