Sure he did... by raising taxes.

If I want a surplus to result from more taxation, I'll elect Hillary. If I want a surplus to result from spending cuts, I'll elect Romney.

This is not to say I think Huck (or any Republican) would try to raise taxes. I do, however, think Huckabee would be far more likely to sign tax increases that came to his desk from a Democratic Congress than any other Republican candidate for President. Sometimes it's not about what you'll support. It's about what you'll oppose when it comes to your desk.
