It is very clear to me what this pick has done. I don't think the Hillary crowd will go for McCain regardless. What this pick has done has almost immidately charged up the base that was very tepid and unexcited. The reaction of the Huckabee supporters that I know has been pleasnt suprise and excitement. Regardless if this ticket wins or not the turnout will definitely increase in his favor and for races below him on the ticket.
Only time will tell what the net result will be.
