Email News from Mike Huckabee

Yesterday I emailed to say that we had broken 20% in the latest CBS/NYT poll conducted in Iowa. Well today, a new American Research Group poll reports that we are still gaining momentum and are now at 24% in Iowa, just 2% behind Governor Romney!

How significant is this new poll? Well a news report on MSNBC earlier this week said that Governor Romney has spent over $10,000,000 on television ads in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. We have spent $0 on television advertising. Two polls now put us within striking distance of Governor Romney. This is our moment to close the gap

Will you endorse my campaign with a contribution today? You have supported me in the past and we can use your support again.

Your immediate, online contribution of $1 (a buck for Huck!), $5, $10, $25, $50, $100, $500 or even $1,000 will give us the financial muscle we need to take advantage of our momentum and expand beyond Iowa into New Hampshire and South Carolina.

If you have already contributed this week, thank you! You weren't alone. Over 600 supporters made their first online contribution over the last 18 hours. We need to keep this momentum going.

We have set a new goal today of finishing at $650,000 by midnight tonight. We are $76,112 away. If you haven't contributed this week please consider making another contribution to our campaign. If you have contributed, please ask a friend or family member to match your gift to our campaign.

We are counting on your support today.

The media and our rivals are watching closely. Another surge in contributions today will send a strong signal that we are ready, willing and able to fight for the nomination. We reached our goal of $550,000 yesterday before our midnight deadline. Help us reach our new goal today!

In almost every interview, I am asked if I am interested in being Vice-President of the United States. Let me be clear: I am running for President of the United States and with your help today we will win!

Let us surge into the lead together. Your immediate, online contribution of $1 (a buck for Huck!), $5, $10, $25, $50, $100, $500 or even $1,000 will put us another milestone closer to our goal.

Now that we are gaining on them, our rival campaigns have started up their negative attack machines. Your contribution today will provide us with the financial strength we need to respond to the attacks and return the decision to the voters.

With deep gratitude,

P.S. Watch out for flying sinks! I expect the rival campaigns will be throwing those at us soon!
