Ins and Outs

Let me explain the top two boxes on the right, labeled "Ins" and "Outs". These are my speculation as to who I think will and will not run for the GOP nomination in 2012. When I update it, I will always tell you in a post, why I am moving someone.

Ins:
Newt Gingrich-Many of his staff members are hinting that this may finally be his year. Also, Robert Novak, typically plugged in, seems to think that Gingrich is running.
Tim Pawlenty- He is non-commital, and after being runner up in the veepstakes, is widely expected to run.
Mike Huckabee-He has a Fox talk show, and is starting a nationwide book tour. Need I say more?
John Thune-He needs to win reelection to the Senate, and then he would be a powerful candidate.

Outs:
Rick Perry-He was considered by many as a candidate, but he told reporters:
"Being the Texas governor is the greatest job in the world and I'm not interested in change," he said. "As a matter of fact, I'm running for re-election in 2010." So, it sounds like he will not be running.

Huck-Pac

Well friends,
Contrary to popular opinion, Mike Huckabee is not finished in politics! He has formed Huck-pac to help elect Republicans to the House and Senate, as well as local offices. It is time for the Huckaboom v. 2.0 Go Huck!

It is finished!

It is finished, the battle is over. Mike Huckabee has dropped out from the Presidential race, which ends my fight on his behalf.

Texas Republican Race Is Not Over Yet!

Well my friends, Even though the Mainstream Media is painting a picture that the Republican Race, both in Texas and nationally, is over. I don't know about nationally, but Texas certainly is not over! An American Research Group survey that was released today states that McCain has a narrow 4% lead over Mike Huckabee. Is the Texas race over before it started? I think not!

Super Tuesday

Super Tuesday wins for Mike Huckabee are proving his electability, and reviving his campaign! At the time of this writing, Mike Huckabee has been declared the winner in 3 states! That is only 1 state less than John McCain has won. I would like to know, how can the media justly say that this is a 2 person race between Romney and McCain, when (at this time) Huckabee has won 3 times as many states as Romney?

Exit Polls From South Carolina

There are some interesting results from S.C. exit polls. Mike Huckabee won among people who considered themselves very conservative 38% to McCain's 19%. But among independents McCain won with 39%. Is the winner, with all the independent voters, representative of the Republican party? Most probably not.

A New Era in Politics?

Well my friends,
After the Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary, I am starting to think that one of The Truths of Politics has started to fail. Actually a few of them.
The first and main one is The Truth that negative campaigning works. Both of these elections have been won by the victim of the attacks rather than the attacker. Does this show that negative campaigning is losing its potency. I hope so! I don't mind Republicans going negative on Democrats, but I do mind Republicans going negative on each other. I guess I believe in Reagan's 11th commandment for Republicans, which is "Thou shalt not speak ill of any Republican". I believe that this applies in all but a few cases, such as a RINO like Rudy Giuliani. Negative ads if unsuccessful only hurt the nominee who survived them. It is also harder to support the nominee is only a few months earlier you were attacking him. I want candidates to tell me why they should be the President, not why the other guy shouldn't be the President.
The second Truth that is being questioned is that a candidate has to have loads of to run a successful campaign. This is being disproved by Mike Huckabee who has seen incredible gains in the amount of support while spending a fraction of what the other campaigns are spending.
In closing, it is time for things to change, and it is looking like 2008 will be the year to start the change!

My challenge!

Well, since I cannot legally donate to Huckabee, I have thought of a challenge for people. For every dollar someone donates using my donor code, I will pass out 1 flier that I have had printed. So far I have raised $15 and passed out 15 fliers. Will you help spread the word?

Donor Code: R292

Lets keep the momentum going!

Well y'all,
After Huck's win in Iowa momentum is on our side! The money has started to pour in like it never has! Grassroots membership is up, and peoples interest in learning about Huckabee is on the rise. (My readership almost doubled after the election.) So I would encourage you to do 3 things. First, is to take the pledge at http://huckabeemomentum.com the pledge is to give just $25 if 10,000 people sign up for the pledge. The second thing is to actually donate as much as you can afford. You can use this link: http://www.mikehuckabee.com Please go to the contribute tab, and when you donate please enter donor code: R292 because for every dollar donated through that donor code, I will pas out one flyer. This is a challenge for y'all to work on. So far I have raised $15, and passed out 15 fliers. The third thing is to spread the word about Huckabee to your friends and family. So, lets get busy!

Huckabee Won!!!

Well y'all,
Huckabee has won in Iowa. Even after Mitt Romney went REALLY negative. People say that going negative is the way to win, but it didn't tonight. Is this the start of a new era in American politics?

Who Is The True Economic Conservative?

I have been facing allegations recently, that Governor Mike Huckabee is a "tax and spend liberal". However, I believe that a candidate will run the government similar to the way he runs his campaign, which he controls totally. To illustrate my point, George Bush spent more than any candidate in history to get elected, and as President, Surprise! he spent more than any President in history. So, who among the candidates has accomplished the most with the use of the least amount of money? Mike Huckabee! So, during the next few days I will compare Huckabee's campaign with the others. First up is Fred Thompson, I know, I know, it's like beating a dead horse since he has fallen so far in the polls, but it never hurts to push him further. For starters, Fred Thompson has raised (In politics we call that donations, in government it's called taxes.) over $10,000,000 more than Huckabee. Next, Thompson has spent $5,706,367 while Huckabee has spent only $819,379. That is 6.96 times less than Thompson. So who is the "tax and spend liberal"? Last up is deficit spending, which any true conservative will agree is a bad thing. Only Ron Paul has no debt. Fred Thompson has $678,432 in debt while Huck has only $47,810 in debt. That is 14.19016942 times less than Thompson's debt. Even if you compare their debt dollar-for-dollar, Huckabee's debt is still over 2.5 times less than Thompson's. So, who is the true economic conservative? Who is the candidate who practices what he preaches? It definitely is NOT Fred Thompson!

Time to Seize the Moment!

Fellow Huckabee supporters, Mike Huckabee is the newly crowned frontrunner for the GOP nomination!

Lets raise some money!

My friends,
Mike Huckabee is gaining traction! However, to keep this momentum going, he needs money. I have signed up as a Huckabee Ranger, and agreed to try and raise $100. I would ask that if you can give $1 (a buck for Huck), $5, or $10 to please contribute. If we want to control politics, instead of a few fat cats who cut $2,300 checks, then we NEED to contribute. So if you want to help control politics and elect the right man for the job, then follow this link and give until it hurts!!!!

Huckabee Is Gaining Traction!

Well y'all,
I am very pleased to report that Mike Huckabee is on the move with fund raising, and steadily climbing in the polls! In Iowa he has moved into a solid second place (according to a CBS poll to be released on Wednesday he is only 6 points behind Mitt Romney), while nationally he is in a virtual tie for third place! Many leading conservatives say that Huckabee is unelectable and can't beat Hillary Rotten Clinton. However, according to Rasmussen Reports, Huckabee polls only three points behind Hillary, well within the margin of error. If all the people who say that they like him but that he can't win would just be quiet and get to work for him, he would win in a landslide election!

Huckabee on Faith

Does a candidate need to have a strong faith in God to be elected? Many voters believe that the answer is "yes". If you believe that the answer is yes, then I encourage you to check out Mike Huckabee for President. This link will take you to his website:

Mike Huckabee Is Gaining Traction!

Well my friends, according to the latest polls from Iowa, Mike Huckabee has made John McCain a thing of the past. He also is coming up FAST on Fred Thompson. You can find the polls at http://www.realclearpolitics.com
