It seems like everyone has a take on the future of the Republican Party, what it is, what it needs to be, etc. Mike Huckabee offers his.

Huckabee could have come up with something better

Mike Huckabee gained fame and paychecks from his humor and personality while campaigning across the nation. He is quick witted and genuinely affable but he completely botched this attempt at humor and should have thought through his words before making such a potential train wreck of a remark during a NRA convention. It occurred when […]

Mike Huckabee is a man on the move towards 2012

There has been some interesting news coming from Mike Huckabee lately. First, Huckabee it appears will be leading a new political organization called the HuckPAC. Newt Gingrich will have to make room on C-SPAN and CPAC for the Huckster.

Senator Mike Huckabee?

Why not? He is a very good campaigner, effective speaker and has strong base of support. I see now why he was unstoppable in a statewide race as Governor of Arkansas. It would be the same results for him there if he decided to run for the Senate. Furthermore, it would be beneficial for the […]

This presidential bid is paying off for MiKe Huckabee

For a paid public speaker and blossoming TV-personality, he’s not a bad candidate either. Oh sure he is still “battling” for every vote against McCain for the Republican nomination, but he drops off the campaign trail from time to time to give a few paid speeches.
He will be addressing a Colorado based group, the Leadership […]

Mike Huckabee…Yep he’s staying in

He wants to ensure that conservatives have a choice and that the party addresses issues like controlling U.S. borders and reforming the tax code. Something he knows neither about.
“Those are the reasons I’m hanging in there” Huckabee, 52, said today. The foot soldiers of the Republican Party, the conservatives in the Republican Party, need to […]
