ASK THEM NOW
Grover Norquist got Mike Huckabee to sign his Taxpayer's Pledge this week, reportedly, something that is probably ridiculous given the revenue problem we have.
Did you, the mere voter, get someone to sign a pledge for you? Is the Party doing it for you, via a platform that might actually matter? Why does Grover Norquist rate a 'special pledge'?
Have you even gotten your questions answered? Matt Y has his first list. Mine includes the pardon question. All the time, I think of more.
Meanwhile, Russert wastes a gazillion minutes questioning Huckabee about his interest in the VP slot. These programs are all so focused on "the game". You know, these may be the last chances to get to ask questions and probe for character and competence, before a VP Huckabee potentially becomes President, via a health or national emergency.
Once they are 'on the ticket', none of them "have to" answer any question they don't want to. Ask them now.

Promises - Who gets them and why
