I have a question for all of you with political smarts. I keep hearing Huckabee use the term “miracle” to describe how he may get Republican nomination. I am starting to wonder if it is a code word for “mortality” – as in “McCain is old. He has had cancer, He may die before the general election”.
So my question is, if McCain is nominated, as seems inevitable, but dies or is incapacitated before general election, will Huckabee be the automatic shoe in? I think this may have happened sometime in history; I am just not aware how it was handled and if the process has been formalized in either party now.
P.S. Long live McCain; He is an honorable man. My question is just a “Constitutional” curiosity!
