Huckadaptability

The other day I used the word "Huckaboom" to characterize the seemingly sudden surge in support for Mike Huckabee. Now I notice that Drudge is using "Huckaboom" on his site today.
It could be that he may have used it before. It could be that we've both been using (or hearing or thinking about) the word all along.
And after all, Huckabee's name does lend itself to these types of adaptations. If he ever becomes the GOP candidate you can just imagine the headlines and the different ways in which the media will play with his name.
I'm not going to flatter myself into thinking that Matt Drudge has visited here and borrowed "Huckaboom" but hey . . . it's a tempting notion!
