Call me dense, but I'm having trouble making the connection between the Texas sex clubs and Huckabee.
My point was that if even suburbanites in a conservative state like Texas behave like that, the market for a moralistic scold like Huckabee is probably even smaller than it appears to be.
I wish you were right about that. Unfortunately, we make generalizations about what to expect from individuals in given sectors of the country, but individuals tend not to obey our pre-conceived notions. Groups do though. And as a group, you can figure that a place like Texas is much more likely to go along with a scold like Huckabee, over a scold like Hillary.
