Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee has been confirmed as the keynote speaker of the Iowa Association of Business and Industry's annual convention in June.

The convention is being held June 9 to 11. ... The theme of this year's convention is "Taking Care of Business" and Huckabee, who's also an author and talk show host, was seen as having experience and insight on that theme and on health care and wellness, said ABI lobbyist John Gilliland.

I still maintain that it's not a slam dunk.

Although when you consider that Huckabee is one of the few top-tier challengers who opposed the financial bailout as well as the stimulus, he does have a wedge issue if it's still salient.

But if no one cares about TARP in 2012, he may decide to stick to cable.  However, his media career may be boosted by repeated runs for president (see: Buchanan, Pat). 

I can't help but think that Palin and Huckabee are targeting a similar constituency, evangelicals, I wonder if that will factor into both of their decisions.
