Time for Huck to Bail?

Question- If Huckabee were not in the race who would his supporters most likely vote for?
My hunch is the answer would be Romney. Except in Texas maybe where for some reason they seem to have a strong affinity for Paul. (I guess we are a bunch of loonies down here)

Assuming my hunch is correct, that Huckabee's supporters, given the choice between Romney and McCain, would support Romney, then is Huckabee's continued run hurting Romney and helping McCain?

Does Huckabee see himself as gathering enough delegates to make him kingmaker at the convention and thus able to have some say in the platform?

Or do the republicans seek a "favorite son" solution suggested here or do they just "recruit Newt" as suggested here

Thoughts anyone?

Either way it looks to be an interesting process. Too bad it's also getting kind scary.
