Yet Another Sign The Apocalypse is Approaching

I didn't believe this when several colleagues told me about it late yesterday.

Via Wonkette:

Ric “The Nature Boy” Flair — an eight-time National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) Champion, six-time WCW Champion, two-time WWE Champion and winner of the 1992 “Royal Rumble” — has endorsed Mike Huckabee.

Perhaps Flair knows something the rest of us don't and is jyst trying to get on the bandwagon as early as possible.  From this morning's Washington Post:

Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, buoyed by strong support from Christian conservatives, has surged past three of his better-known presidential rivals and is now challenging former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney for the lead in the Iowa Republican caucuses, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

Huckabee has tripled his support in Iowa since late July, eclipsing former New York mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, former senator Fred D. Thompson (Tenn.) and Sen. John McCain (Ariz.). Huckabee now runs nearly evenly with Romney, the longtime Iowa front-runner.
