Mike Huckabee: Right Reform and Right Reason

Winning the West - RNC

(A team of Sun reporters is at the Republican National Convention this week in St. Paul.)

ST. PAUL, Minn. — It's starting to look like a convention here.

The nose-bleed seats are pretty much filling up, the music and speeches are flowing. The crowd is letting loose.

It’s a big change from opening night.

Former presidential contender Mike Huckabee thanked the media for unifying the party with its critical coverage of VP pick Sarah Palin. He called the stories tackier than a costume change at a Madonna concert. Folks loved it.

Palin is up any time now.

    The teen queen is speaking - her teleprompter is working - she has said very little of substance - thank goodness
