Despite his departure from the Republican nomination race, God announced today that the world has not heard the last of Mike Huckabee. Speaking with CNN, God stated that the Arkansas governor and former Baptist minister may have lost this one, but he shall return. “Voters are quite fickle, and what’s the thing now won’t necessarily be four years from now,” God told a stunned Anderson Cooper. “I take care of my faithful, and this will not be the last we here of Mike Huckabee.”
When pressed further, the Almighty hinted that Huckabee 2012 might be inevitable. “I don’t like to usually call these things this far in advance. It gets on people’s nerves, what with the whole free will thing and all,” God explained. “But rest assured, slapping a Huckabee bumper sticker on your Toyota Corolla might look silly now, but come three years from now you just might be ahead of the trend.” The Alpha and Omega then gave a wildly over exaggerated wink to Cooper.
No response yet from the Huckabee camp, but insiders say even a vague endorsement from the Creator could be the leverage Hucakbee needs for a 2012 run. One who spoke on condition of anonymity flatly stated, “We’d be blasphemous not to run again!”
