  Strained Super Bowl Metaphor of the Night

  Mike Huckabee, responding to a question about why he's still in the race if he won't win the nomination:
  

  "I'm not sure I would say it's so unlikely that we'll get the nomination. No one's got 1,191 delegates yet, and until they do, we're still in it. Nobody thought the New York Giants were gonna be the Super Bowl champions, and everybody had those hats painted up [sic] with the Patriots. Guess what, those are a real bargain today. You can get a lot of Super Bowl hats with the Patriots insignia on it, for a deal. So don't be too quick to say it's over."

  So after Huckabee loses, is he going to send his campaign T-shirts to children in Africa?
