As I wake up this morning my predictions were about right. Romney went on and won Colorado and Alaska which means Mike Huckabee is about 80 delegates behind him. As Huckabee pointed out though – it’s interesting to see that the southern states seemingly like Huckabee more than Romney. And as EVERYONE is pointing out, that’s where the “real conservative base is.” So I think it would be correct to say, conservatives are much more favorable of Huckabee than Romney – unless you’re Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity (and I stopped listening to them a long time ago anyways).
But now that Super Tuesday is over, what do we do now? Especially now that Texas is in play. I posed the question to a couple friends who have been involved in the Huckabee campaign at various stages.
I would go to meet-up and volunteer… they need phone callers, better web presence (youtube, myspace, blogs, etc.), letter stuffers, yard sign placers… i’ll ask mike as soon as he wakes up – i’m letting him sleep in today 😉
from another friend:
Good question. The stronger H does in Texas, the better chance he has of being on the ticket. Also, be sure to show up at the pct convention, county conv and state convention. That will be very important…
Winning isn’t the key. Keeping McCain under 50 percent is. Not just statewide… in congressional districts too. Do the texasgop.org and look at the part rules. Start about rule 32 or so. Winning congressional dists is more important than winning the entire state.
So there you have it. What are you doing? What are you going to do?
You have a great blog.
I’m sticking by Huckabee until the end. I’m placing my faith in a David vs. Goliath match with Huckabee as David. Let us all continue calling for the Huckabee campaign and doing whatever we can.
Like Governor Huckabee said, this is a marathon.
