No More Posts until After Christmas

We are now upon the long Christmas weekend. There is lots going on with the campaign but honestly it is time for me to take a pause. There are tons of polls but they are inaccurate and all over the place. I don't think it is possible to get a good enough sample the reflects what is really going on at this time of year. Everyone is so busy they are scraping the bottom of the barrel with their sample sizes. Knowing the demographics of Huckabee's supporters there is no surprise that even the Rasmussen daily tracker is showing Huckabee falling. I'm not the only one supporting Huckabee that is taking a break for politics to celebrate Christmas. But I also feel that the case is the same for supporters of all candidates.

Merry Christmas one and all! Here's a great cartoon for y'all to enjoy while I am gone.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

As you know I have been busy with all sorts of things. I have decided to take a break from this blog until December 26th and the final push before the Iowa caucuses on January 3rd. There is going to be a lot to blog about in that period of time and I could use the rest between now and then.

Before I do go I want to note a few things:

As you can see the ticker jumped a bunch yesterday. Everything that wave raised online since October 1st was added in and a new goal was set. the new goal is to reach the $5 Million mark by the time the ball drops and the year (as well as the quarter) ends. We are almost $550.000 away from that mark at this moment today.

To help in this effort the folks over at Huck's Army have created this website in hopes of raising $1 Million for Mike on December 27th. Go check it out, sign up to pledge what you can, and spread the word!

I would like to wish all of Y'all a very Merry Christmas. Thanks for reading and for supporting me and Mike Huckabee. For the final word I present to you the latest campaign ad by Mike that is running in Iowa, South Carolina, & New Hampshire.

Ho Ho Huckabee - Santa Supports Mike Huckabee!!

This afternoon my Meetup group, led by my awesome and amazing assistant organizer, Lisa Chambers headed over to Gwinnett Place Mall in Duluth Georgia to do some Holiday Shopping for Huckabee! Lisa (pictured on the left) was joined by (from left to right) Kristen, Chris, and John (thanks to John for the picture).

This was week #2 in Holiday Shopping for Huckabee for the Gwinnett County for Mike Huckabee Meetup group. What we have done is go out to a local mall (with our Huckabee gear on) to get our Christmas shopping done, get some exercise, and do some evangelizing for Mike Huckabee. Note that we are not beating people over the heads with it but we are leaving business cards, fliers, and bumper stickers to anyone who asks (and at the stores we shop in). Lisa has led this initiative the past two weeks I have been tied up. We're gonna do it again next weekend but this time I will be along for the fun. The following report is from Lisa:

Hi Brian,

Today’s Meet-Up went well. We had 4 people there spreading the word about Huck. We gave out a bunch of business cards to direct people to the web site, and gave out a few bumper stickers and round lapel stickers for supporters to make a permanent button like mine.

However that's not the best part. While he was walking around Gwinnett Place Mall, Chris had exclusive audience with the jolly old elf himself, Santa Claus. Turns out Jolly old Saint Nick is a Huckabee supporter and will be flying around the globe with a Mike Huckabee bumper sticker on the sleigh! Lisa continues:

Chris even talked to Santa and found out that he’s a Huck supporter; so I went back and gave him a bumper sticker

How cool is that? Looks like Santa is getting extra milk and cookies from me this year!
