Coming out of the latest Super Tuesday, Mike Huckabee's Presidential campaign is over. It seems unlikely that John McCain will pick him as a Vice President, and that then pushes many of us to speculate about his future.
He doesn't strike me as the type that will retire to Florida and join a wine club and start playing golf every day. If I had to guess, I would say that he is going to return to his roots in evangelism. I would not be surprised at all to see him become a television evangelist or possibly create a subset of the Republican Party to pull Christian Conservatives back to their Christian roots.
Don't get me wrong, I do not see that as a positive thing. Christians have allowed themselves to be led astray by the Bush Administration. They have some hard lessons to learn about politicians that pander. I suspect that one result could be a fraction of the Republican Party. If John McCain becomes President, I could definitely see a schism coming down the road.
