BRIAN KILMEADE (CO-HOST): 36 million people voted already, Gov. Huckabee, and people think automatically that that's good for Democrats. I think it's good for America. What about you? 

MIKE HUCKABEE (FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR): Yeah, I think it is, too. It shows an extraordinary interest. When people are lined up to vote, it means that they really care. They don't drive by and say 'ah, long line, forget about it.' They get in that line and they wait an hour and a half and they cast their vote. It shows the passion of the American people.
