Good News from NH for Huckabee

Rasmussen has another poll out that has Mike Huckabee in a statistical tie for second in NH.

The new primary election poll shows a virtual three-way tie for second place between former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Arizona Senator John McCain at 15% and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee at 14%. For Giuliani and McCain, those figures are a very slight dip from earlier in the month while Huckabee has gained four more percentage points.

Whether Huckabee is simply enjoying fifteen minutes of fame or has become a serious contender for the Republican nomination remains to be seen, but his campaign is certainly enjoying the ride at the moment. In September, his long-shot campaign attracted just 4% of New Hampshire voters and even less support nationally. Now, in addition to his strong showing in New Hampshire, the bass-guitar playing candidate is a frontrunner in Iowa and essentially tied for second nationally.

I of course DO NOT think that this is Mike Huckabee's fifteen minutes of fame. He is definitely a major contender for the Republican nomination. I can't wait until January.

Chuck for Huck

This is a candid video of a luncheon where Chuck Norris is telling about how he came to endorse Mike Huckabee. Enjoy. It mentions the Harris Brothers and their website http://www.therebelution.com/ and their blog ihearthuckabee.blogspot.com. Both are very good in my opinion.

Act, Dream, Plan

Liberty University for Huckabee has a great post. Here is my favorite quote.

I thought to myself "Well if I want Mike to get elected, the only way that is going to happen is if people start doing something. It is going to be a great thing so somebody has to act, right now it is a dream, somebody has to start planning, somebody has to believe......I better get started" From then on I believed that Mike Huckabee could be the next president. From then on I started planning. I started dreaming of the day Mike took the oath in D.C.. From then on I put action to words. It wasn't only some random posters that inspired me to go all out for Mike, it wasn't a whim either. It was well thought out and prayed about. How can we as Americans say we are free when we retire and just lay our choices down on who the media portrays as having a chance. That is cowardice! That is ennoble! During World War Two when the chances of us winning were unclear, did we back down? When London was being blown to smithereens with no allies left standing, the last stronghold in Europe, did you see Churchill say "Oh well guys, I give up we don't really have that good of a chance of winning so there is no reason to fight." No you didn't, because the right thing to do, whether you have a chance or have no chance at all of tasting victory; is to fight on. Did the apostle Paul after being beaten and thrown out of city after city say "well, logically, we really have no chance of leading anyone to the Lord" Of course this did not happen. Because the Lord was and is, in charge. Paul knew that God defies mans logic. I know that God defies man's logic, just read the Bible, he made a point of making the last in this world first. So I took that to heart. I said "God, I hope you defy all mans logic and help this man of yours who, by mans logical reasoning, has no chance and get him in the white house. "

More Evidence Against Government Schools

I did a couple of posts recently about Bruce Shortt's book The Harsh Truth About Public Schools. One of the things that many parents think is that "those kinds of things" only happen at "other" schools. So here is a little eye-opener. There was an article today in World Net Daily talking about a one hundred or so students being withdrawn from a state's public schools. This exodus was due to the "Gender Bender" day (where girls were encouraged to dress as boys and boys were encouraged to dress as girls) that was offered as part of homecoming week. The state in question. Not California (that was last year). Not New York. Not Washington. No the state was Iowa. Yes, religiously/socially conservative Iowa where socially conservative Mike Huckabee is currently is polling 1st. Oh, but theses sorts of things aren't happening at your government school.

Huckabee Surges to 1st in Iowa

Rasmussen has a new poll out today. Mike Huckabee is ahead of Mitt Romney in Iowa!

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of the Iowa caucus finds former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee with 28% of the vote, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney with 25% support, and everyone else far behind.

The Huckabee Surge Continues in Iowa, Florida, and Super Tuesday States

The Southern Political Report has an article about Gov. Huckabee's surge in Florida the past month.

November 27, 2007 — Mike Huckabee has moved into second place among Republican presidential hopefuls in Florida, according to a new InsiderAdvantage/Majority Opinion Research poll of likely voters in the Jan. 29 GOP Florida primary. The poll’s results serve to ratchet up the drama as the Republican candidates prepare to debate on CNN Wednesday night from St. Petersburg, and InsiderAdvantage and the Florida Chamber of Commerce prepare to conduct an unprecedented poll that will determine the winner of the debate. Here are the results of the pre-debate poll, conducted Sunday and Monday nights:

Question: “If the Florida Republican presidential primary election were held today, would you vote for…”

Rudy Giuliani (26%)
Mike Huckabee (17%)
John McCain (13%)
Mitt Romney (12%)
Fred Thompson (9%)
Ron Paul (3%)
Undecided (18%)

The poll was conducted Nov. 25 and 26 among 675 likely voters in the January Republican primary. It has a margin of error of about three-and-a-half percent.

According to Liberty University for Huckabee, poll taken last month by this same pollster showed these results.

Mike Huckabee did not even register, or they did see the small percentage points as enough to warrant a statement! So Mike Huckabee jumped from last place with a result to low worth posting to 17% and in second place.

This is just the latest in good news for Gov. Huckabee. According to Rasmussen, Mike Huckabee is tied for second in the 20 Super Tuesday states.

Then there are also the great polling numbers from Iowa. The latest poll has him in second place there with 24% close behind Romney's 28%.

UPDATE: Huckabee also wins the Oklahoma GOP Bedlam Bash Straw Poll. Check out the story on www.mikehuckabee.com
