WASHINGTON – Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee said he would not seek, nor accept an invitation to run for president through a third political party supported by Christian conservative leaders upset over the prospect of a pro-choice Republican candidate like Rudy Giuliani.

Mike Huckabee, at a house party in Londonderry, N.H., Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007."No, I think a third party only helps elect Hillary [Clinton]," the ordained Baptist minister and staunch conservative told The Washington Post on Thursday. "I don't see that being a good strategy for those who really care about pushing a pro-family, pro-life agenda."
Rather, the White House hopeful said "the smart thing" for pro-life Christian leaders to do is to unite and support him as the Republican candidate.
"If they do that, I'll become the nominee, I'll win the White House," Huckabee contends.
A third party candidate in the 2008 election will guarantee the election of the democratic candidate.
