For Iowa Stuck On Huck Grassroots Supporters - "The Huck Starts Here"

Governor Mike Huckabee is making his announcement about a 2012 presidential bid tonight on "The Huckabee Show" starting at 7 p.m. CST.  There hasn't been this much suspense to a decision since Lebron James told the world he was going to play for the Miami Heat on ESPN last fall.

Since yesterday when Huckabee shared his decision timing, most of the media have speculated that Huckabee would not run for president - and just like Lebron James, he would be talking his talents to Florida where Huckabee is building a new home.  A blog yesterday at TheIowaRepublican.com reflected this sentiment with the headline, "The Huck Stops Here."

While Governor Huckabee has been considering a potential 2012 presidential bid, his grassroots supporters started to mobilize in Iowa.  Soon after two key staffers from Huckabee's 2008 campaign team committed to other candidates, "Stuck On Huck" was born in Iowa on April 1st.

The true grassroots movement caught national media attention and has helped fill a natural void during Huckabee's "decision time."  It has helped keep the Huckabee message positive while helping to build some momentum even before he announces his presidential intentions.  The Iowa grassroots supporters are ready, willing and able to passionately fuel a second campaign - knowing that because Iowa has the first caucus - that the "Huck Starts Here."

"Radio Stuck On Huck" has been a weekly online radio show on Thursday nights at 9 p.m. CST.  The nationwide show has attracted fervent Huckabee supporters from across the nation expressing their support for Huckabee's vision for America.  There will be a "Special Edition - Huckabee's Decision" radio show tonight at 8 p.m. CST after the announcement - HuckRadio.com.

Stuck On Huck has also just published it's first e-book, "More Than 57 Reasons Mike Huckabee Should Become President" - written and compiled by brothers Dan & Dave Davidson, co-founders of Stuck on Huck and writers of this blog entry.  The e-book is available as a free digital download for Mike Huckabee supporters to share with family and friends at HuckReasons.com.

In the voice of an open letter and tone of an extended greeting card, the e-book includes letters and tributes to Huckabee to show him support.  It is also for “Stuck On Huck” supporters to share on social media as a digital grassroots tool of mobilization.

Stuck On Huck has announced an exciting grassroots event Saturday, June 4th in Des Moines Iowa - the Stuck On Huck Pledge Vote Rally. We will be inviting high profile celebrities, musicians and politicians to attend or provide a video showing support for Huckabee.  Future Huckabee voters will be invited to travel to Des Moines and sign a "Pledge Vote"  supporting Mike Huckabee..

Stuck On Huck Supporters Should Focus On Huckabee's Vision More Than His Decision

There seems to be a preoccupation of political speculation regarding Mike Huckabee's decision to run for president in 2012.  The forums, blogs, tweets and Facebook comments are lit up with worries and concerns that Huckabee may not have "fire in the belly" because he hasn't committed yet.  


At this point we think as a Huck supporter it's all or nothing - we have nothing to lose and everything to gain by supporting and encouraging him to run and sharing with supporters and others what his vision for America is.  


It's time to focus on Huckabee's vision - more than his decision. 


Even if he doesn't run for president again, his value and views - his policies and principles are what this nation needs.  He would continue to have a platform to influence the social, cultural and political framework of our country.  


So for now, if you are "Stuck On Huck" our suggestion is that we focus on what he stands for.  A good place to start is to read and share the principles he reflects in his latest best-selling book, "A Simple Government."  Learn even more at MikeHuckabee.com.  


Personally we think he has to be somewhat vague now to avoid having his television contract with Fox News suspended.   Because of his Fox show and his multiple appearances on other Fox programs, he is asked more often about his decision to run than any other candidate.  This naturally puts an extra spotlight on his decision.   


Huckabee has to keep things general about his decision for now and not show too much enthusiasm quite yet.  He does have "fire in the belly" when it comes to the issues.  He is taking strong stances on policies everyday and had the strongest reaction to bin Laden's recent death compared to other GOP candidates. 


Each week he is still at Fox he appears on several shows including of course his own.  This may be worth millions of dollars each week in exposure.  If he ends up running, his approach now will be a very wise one.  Once he gets in the race, there should be no doubt that he will be focused and passionate and few will be talking about what he said the month before he decided.  


If you are a loyal Huckabee supporter let us ask - do you have "fire in the belly?"  Or do you spend a lot of time regurgitating theories and motives about his decision to run for president.  That can cause political indigestion!  


Now is the time to build up momentum for a potential presidential campaign.  Huck supporters need something positive to focus on - like the "Stuck On Huck Pledge Vote Rally & Tribute" to Mike Huckabee in Des Moines on June 4th.  Make the political pilgrimage to Iowa or sponsor a virtual house party - register at HuckRally.com.  Help us invite 10,000 friends at Invitathon.com.


Pledge your vote at HuckPledge.com.  Send a message to Governor Huckabee at Huckaletters.com or HuckReasons.com.  Submit a video supporting him at HuckVideo.com. Call in or listen to our weekly radio show on Thursdays 9 p.m. CST at HuckRadio.com.  Join the prayer team at HuckPrayer.com.  Learn the truth about the issues at HuckTruth.com.  


Retweet the best positive Huckabee messages on Twitter at HuckTweets.com. Support conservative principles and candidates at Huck Pac.  Become a Facebook fan of Mike Huckabee, Huck's Army, Huck Nation, Draft Huckabee 2012, and Stuck On Huck.  


Do what you can now to spread his "vision" to others.  And don't worry so much about his "decision".  That's probably something we should leave to Huckabee and heaven right now.

Speaking Words Of Wisdom - Huckabee! Matt & Jared Record New Song For 2012 Season

Matt and Jared have recorded another great song as a tribute to Mike Huckabee.  They were a YouTube hit in the 2008 campaign and appeared with Governor at multiple rallies on the campaign trail.


There latest song is a political take-off with the theme "Speaking Words Of Wisdom - Huckabee!"  Ben Smith from Politico.com mentioned the song last week and that helped fuel 10,000 views in the first two days!

Matt Robins and Jared Shelton have been Huckabee fans since 2007, when Jared showed Matt an Iowa based campaign commercial featuring Chuck Norris, and according to Matt, he “ended up agreeing with pretty much everything he stood for.”  

A few months later, in December of 2007, a family friend of Jared’s showed the duo a parody video to “Here Comes Santa Claus” posted on Huckabee’s website, and suggested that they attempt the same endeavor. A half hour later Matt had penned the lyrics to their most watched YouTube video, “Breakfast at Huckabees”, which earned enough feedback, both positive and negative, that the duo decided to make a few more videos, based on songs that are easily identifiable within their age group, which continued to perform well on YouTube.  

Eventually they were recognized by the Governor himself and invited to perform their songs at rallies and events in South Carolina in February of 2008.  Source - USElectionNews.org

We hope to have Matt and Jared on an upcoming radio show on the Radio Stuck On Huck show Thursdays at 9 p.m. CST. - Look for descriptions for upcoming shows at HuckRadio.com.

Over Half Of Voters Would Be Enthusiastic About Mike Huckabee As GOP Nominee

Sarah Palin and Donald Trump need to work on their favorability with the American public. Nearly two-thirds of American say they would not support them as a presidential candidate.

Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney favor much better with over half of voters polled recently saying they would be enthusiastic if they were the GOP nominee.  It's still very early in the race and Romney recently announced that he was running for president.  Huckabee has said consistently that he will make a decision by this summer.

(Reuters) - Nearly 60 percent of Americans would never support a Republican presidential bid by former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin or real estate mogul and reality TV star Donald Trump, according to a new poll Wednesday. 

But the Quinnipiac University poll of 1,408 voters found that about half would consider or be enthusiastic about backing former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney or former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee in the November 2012 election. 

"Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee are in the best shape. Sarah Palin and Donald Trump suffer from the reality that, as our mothers told us, 'You never get a second chance to make a first impression,'" said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. 

Among the 613 Republican and independent Republican-leaning voters, the poll showed Romney as favorite to win the Republican presidential nomination with 18 percent, followed by Huckabee and Palin with 15 percent and Trump with 12 percent. 

Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels and former House of Representatives Speaker Newt Gingrich each have 5 percent, while former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty and Minnesota Representative Michele Bachmann and both on 4 percent.
