Candidate information

Since I don't watch television, I didn't even know what Mike Huckabee looks like. I get my most of information from National Public Radio, with occasional perusals of The New York Times online.
This collection of images (clipped from a goofy blog called "Vote for Breakfast") reminds me that he's the candidate who is admired for his weight loss, which I'd forgotten. Odd that such a feat would be persuasive as a Presidential qualification.

But another information source I ran into recently is CNNMoney.com. About a month ago, Marlys Harris of Money Magazine wrote an article that analyzed the net worth of the Presidential candidates. Click the link at the bottom of the article to find a candidate-by-candidate breakdown of their finances. Note that Huckabee wasn't even considered a "top White House contender," so he's not included on this list. I wonder where we could find his net worth?
