Best FF program for early-primary states?

I just came across this from the website of the (Spartanburg, S.C.) Herald-Journal:
http://goupstate.us/index.php/lanefi...11/02/title_14

Looks like Gov. Mike Huckabee is a member of the AAA, Marriott Rewards, and U.S. Air, among other "frequent flyer clubs."

This is just a lighthearted question, but is U.S. Air Dividend miles the best program for Huckabee? For him, the ideal airline has to have service to LIT, DSM, MHT, CHS, and maybe FLL.

In seriousness, I'm not endorsing Huckabee here, but it's good that at least one of the candidates knows what its like to face security, ATC delays, and 29-inch pitch.

It makes me think, would any frequent flyer programs make sense for any of the other candidates?

For example, Sen. Barack Obama might sign up for UA Mileage Plus: just like him, United's got a hub in Chicago, has experience in SE Asia, and has ushered in a new era of unity among competing interests (i.e. United was a founding member of Star Alliance).

Any other ideas for Gov. Huckabee, or any of the other candidates? (P.S. Please don't automatically move this to a secret political forum!)
