My Bumper sticker just came in the mail today- I re-applied it several times on my tailgate to make sure it was straight!
I'm looking forward to being of voting age just in time for this 08 presidential election, and am proud to endorse Mike Huckabee as my candidate of choice. I've been following the campaign for months now, and until October I thought I may be rooting for a lost cause. But voters across the country are ditching the morally reprehensible front-runners in favor of an authentic conservative candidate in Mike Huckabee. This blog will follow developments concerning Mike, as well as the rest of the race.

McCain, Huckabee Worst Picks for Evangelicals
MEDIA ADVISORY, Feb. 4 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Reverend Rob Schenck (pronounced SHANK), in his capacity as a private citizen, today released this statement regarding tomorrow's primary votes:
"I have spent the last 33 years as an active evangelical Christian. I am an ordained evangelical minister. I graduated from an evangelical Bible college and an evangelical seminary. I serve on the board of America's oldest association of evangelical church leaders, and I head one of the most active evangelical ministries in Washington, DC.
"I have thought long and hard about the upcoming elections. I have prayed earnestly about them, and I have met many of the candidates and their top campaign people and I have studied their platforms and policy proposals.
"After careful and prayerful consideration, I have concluded that an evangelical vote for Mike Huckabee is a vote for John McCain, and a vote for John McCain will be a disaster for this country.
"Let me explain. It's clear to me and many others that Mike Huckabee is not broadening his appeal enough to win the primary. Therefore, his only contribution is to siphon off votes, giving McCain a clear path to victory. It's very possible Huckabee is being positioned to be John McCain's pick for vice president. In order to win, McCain needs Mike Huckabee and the evangelical votes he brings with him. The specter of a McCain-Huckabee ticket is bad for evangelicals.
"McCain is proud of his signature accomplishment, the McCain-Feingold law co-authored with liberal Democrat senator Russ Feingold. McCain-Feingold severely limits the First Amendment rights of evangelicals. McCain will use this law as the litmus test for his Supreme Court nominees. If a judge is likely to be against McCain's unconstitutional law, McCain will not nominate him. Make no mistake about it, constitutional originalist judges will be against McCain-Feingold. These same judges will also be pro-life, for traditional marriage and for the public acknowledgment of God.
"Only liberal judges will support McCain-Feingold. They will also be pro-abortion, anti-traditional marriage and against the public acknowledgement of God. So, with a McCain-Huckabee administration, or with a McCain-anyone administration, we get the wrong judges. Most distressing, we get the wrong justices on the U.S. Supreme Court."Evangelicals must consider both the stakes and the realities in this election. Mike Huckabee's continuation only helps John McCain. The consequences are just too great to take this risk. A McCain victory will hurt this country because of the long-term damage of the wrong judges and justices. Worse, McCain's court legacy will continue to hurt our children and our grandchildren, perhaps even our great grandchildren.
"Evangelicals must choose wisely from among candidates other than Mike Huckabee and John McCain as they vote tomorrow, February 5.
"For identification purposes only, the Reverend Rob Schenck (pronounced SHANK) is president of Faith and Action in the Nation's Capital, chairman of the Committee on Church and Society for the Evangelical Church Alliance and co-founder of the annual National Memorial for the Pre-born and their Mothers and Fathers, the only pro-life worship service held inside the U.S. Capitol complex in Washington, DC.
It’s time to Rally to Romney so we can block McCain!
I do not agree with "fleeting thoughts'" comment at all.
I have voted for Mike Huckabee!
I cannot cast aside my core values and vote for a candidate like Romney who goes back and forth with his so called values.
I will not let anyone pursue me, especially a "evengelical leader".
In this election, I see just how corrupt our whole value system has become. I put my faith in God to help Mike Huckabee win this election! Many our our evangelical leaders are listening to the media and people like Limbaugh and Hannity as well. They are being fooled. Where is their faith?
Go Out and Vote for Mike Huckabee!!
Don't listen to the media or talking heads. If you want to vote for romney, go check out his values--I cannot trust a flip-flopper on abortion, gay rights, and more.....
Check him out for yourself when he was governor. He is untrustworthy.
God Bless Gov. Mike Huckabee!!!
I think it's funny you get mad at Romney because his definition of Jesus includes you.
Check out the Article VI blog on tolerance.
Huckabee and McCain are already colluding.
Former Louisiana Gov. Buddy Roemer conceded defeat for Sen. John McCain at West Virginia's Republican state convention on Tuesday.
Roemer, who represented McCain at the Charleston event, asked McCain boosters to support Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee on the second ballot in order to block former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.
I respect your thoughts and wish you the best. Anyway, keep smiling it's just politics.
Please help us get this video out to Texans by posting it on your blog, then emailing a link to all the Texans and all the Huckabee supporters you know! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhApGSuT2BY
Thanks, and GO HUCKABEE!
