'Folksy' Mike Huckabee keeps eyes on Fox's fan base, and the White House.

...."The hour-long Saturday night program, averaging 1.6 million viewers, is Fox's highest-rated of the weekend, beating all its cable news rivals combined. Huckabee's great strength is that "he is folksy," says Fox Senior Vice President Bill Shine. "He's not one of those flashy, loud, obnoxious hosts that are sometimes equated with cable and broadcast. He's from Arkansas, a part of the country we don't usually get television hosts from. He's very respectful, very cordial, certainly interrupts less than any other host on cable."
