PPP blogspot  states:  Those numbers for Romney are pretty ominous- they're an indication that he could really have some trouble connecting with voters in states that have heavily conservative Republican primary electorates, which frankly at this point is most of them.

Winning across the board in the south would be a very big step toward a potential Huckabee nomination so these numbers bode well for him on that front.




Mike Huckabee will be in Houston Texas Saturday, March 19th to keynote the Harris County Lincoln-Reagan Day dinner.  You can get your tickets here.



Huckabee will also be in Texas for his book tour, signing copies of his new book: A Simple Government

  2. Thanks, I am glad you like the website. Please stop by often to get updates on the latest Huckabee news.

    I hope Huckabee will be coming to Dallas so I can get the opportunity to talk with him again. I met Gov. Huckabee while I was volunteering in his Dallas campaign office.

  3. I have been a Huckabee fan for a good while. I am going to try to be at either the Tyler- Hastings signing or Longview. Have not met Mike personally but hope to soon. Bless him is his quest to lead our country.
