Is This Why Huckabee is Staying in the Race?

Rumors are swirling that John McCain was involved in an extra-marital affair during the 2000 campaign. What makes this worse is that the woman involved is a Washington lobbyist. Now we've always thought Republicans were in bed with the representatives of Big Business but this takes the cake.

I don't know if this is true or not, and I certainly have no information that anybody else has, but I have to wonder, is Mike Huckabee staying in the race hoping that this blows up before the convention? Everybody is saying that Huckabee is destroying his own credibility among Republicans by staying in the race, but if and this is a big IF, this does blow up on McCain, then as the man with the second most number of delegates he would be the obvious choice to replace McCain as the nominee.

And even a loss by Huckabee under these circumstances would mean a lot of power in the GOP for the Huckster.
