Huckabee, speaking "truth" to primary power

One thing I appreciate about Huckabee is his candor (or what appears to be candor). In this WaPo article Huckabee: Dems Would Label Romney a Flip-Flopper - washingtonpost.com Huckabee (aside from stating the obvious: that changing your opinion 180 degrees on an issue is not a political positive on balance) distances himself from Dubya's foreign policy and Dubya's "enhanced interrogation" policy. I'd say these two positions are--perhaps reflexively (in reaction to DEMagoguery on the issues over the past 6 years), not shared by a majority of GOP primary voters. But they are very reasonable positions and these statements/positions will probably enhance Huckabee's credibility.
