Now that the Florida primaries are complete, Mike Huckabee came in fourth place. This is surprising to me, given all the hoopla with the viral-creationism that is infecting a significant amount of school boards in the state. McCain won first place, and as I showed in my Chart of the Candidates, he is a evolution-non-denier.

So what do we take from this? It seems that the voting arm of the conservatives doesn’t quite match the infestations in the aforementioned school boards. Mike Huckabee is the candidate for the anti-science crowd. McCain would be anathema. However, Huckabee did quite poorly, just above the ignoramus Ron Paul (whose only redeeming quality is his opposition to the “war”).

So perhaps there is some glimmer of hope here. When these school boards come back for re-election, the viral-creationists may not fare as well now that they have outed themselves for the willfully ignorant anti-science cretins that they are. The electorate voted these people in for other reasons, and will now take them out.

It is a dream I have. (apologies to Excalibur)

Oh, and here is another Huckabee video for your entertainment (thanks to Pharyngula):
