Name the Bus and more Mike Huckabee News

Mike Huckabee needs your help in naming his new bus.



Go to YouTube or here and leave a comment on what you think the name of the new bus should be. My personal choice, Eighteen Wheels of Hope.

I was finally awake to watch Mike Huckabee in an interview. He was on FOX and Friends. He talked about how the air traffic control systems in the country are behind modern technology. He says that the behind the times tech in the air traffic control is the reason there are many delays. And people are held up waiting on the tarmack. While this happens precious resources are being wasted. And it affects the environment.
He also talked about his major upswing in the polls, recognition and money in the campaigns. The reason he is up in the polls are because the American people, especially those in Iowa, are looking for a true conservative. And Mike Huckabee is just that conservative. That is why he is gaining major momentum of recognition.
He said about money that his oponents may have more money and more earlier recognition, but once people find out his name they will like what they find out. He admits that he may not be the Wall Street candidate, he's the Main Street candidate, and that is what conservative voters are looking for. Also he made a candid comment that many people are feeling that the Republican Party is bought and payed for, and he wants to change that. This true honesty is what I like about Mike.

Here are a few other things to check out:

From the Republican Race '08-
2. Mike Huckabee
Mike Huckabee has been on an unbelievable tear as of late. It looked as if he was about to take a big hit after the second quarter fundraising figures came out. Huckabee had finished in the bottom 3 of Republicans and it looked like his campaign was about to go into panic mode. However Mike had different plans. Just as the name of his latest book, his campaign has risen From Hope to Higher Ground. After the ABC News debate from Iowa it seems as if Huckabee has an excellent chance at not only placing highly at the straw poll, but even winning the poll in Ames. During the Iowa/ABC News Debate Dr. Frank Luntz (one of the nations top political pollsters) used the new real-time dial technology that let's voters give an immediate feedback to what they think about what the candidate is saying. Dr. Luntz said that Huckabee's numbers went through the roof when attacked the Suadi royal family and their involvement and funding of terrorism with money coming from US oil revenue and that America needs to be independent on energy within 10 years. Read this small portion of a Politico.com article..."At the session’s start, only one participant picked Huckabee as the candidate he or she wanted to win. Nine chose former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, eight were for former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, five were for the absent Fred Thompson, two were for McCain, and the remaining candidates were picked by one or none.But when it was over, Huckabee had 14 votes, compared with 10 for Romney, three for Giuliani, one for Fred Thompson and one for Rep. Duncan Hunter of California."Check out the entire article by clicking here.This is all great news for the Huckabee camp and he is an a great position to be catapulted to the front of the pack after the Iowa Straw Poll this Saturday.

What does Newt have to say about Mike-
Gingrich said Huckabee is going to emerge as "the most interesting dark horse" over the next few weeks. He said Huckabee has a level of authenticity and candor that is beginning to resonate with people. Click here for the full article

I think I may have to thank someone. I got a letter and bumpersticker from the Huckabee campaign thanking me for my contribution. Well, I have not given a contribution recently. I am assuming someone gave in my name. Whoever you are THANK YOU! I hope it wasn't a mistake and I got credit for someone else giving to the campaign. The most important thing is that Mike Huckabee got more campaign funds.
