Mike Huckabee in 2nd Place Nationally

The new USA Today/Gallup poll is good news for the Huckabee campaign. Mike Huckabee is also in 2nd place in this poll from Rasmussen Reports.

From USA Today:
• Giuliani: 25%; vs 28% in the previous survey, taken Nov. 11-14; and 34% in a Nov. 2-4 survey. So, his support has fallen 9 percentage points in a month.
• Mike Huckabee: 16%; vs. 10% in the previous survey; and 6% before that. His support has risen 10 percentage points in a month.
• Fred Thompson: 15%; vs. 19% in the previous survey; and 17% before that.
• Sen. John McCain: 15%; vs. 13% in the previous survey; and 18% before that.
• Mitt Romney: 12%; unchanged from the previous survey; and 14% before that.No other GOP candidate was above 4%.


After watching the debates for months, reading polls, listening to the other candidates talk, and examining closely how they react and respond to the Huckabee campaign, I have made the following conclusions:
They (the other candidates) appeared to be thinking (about Mike) in June and July, "He's a nice guy. He makes these debates fun." In August and September, "He's a nice guy. He has some good points." In October, "He's a nice guy. He might make a good running mate (just as long as he doesn't catch on and beat me.”) In November, "Nice guy or not, he'd better stop doing so well. We have to stop him."

Now, lets doing everything we can to help the other candidates start thinking, "I hope he picks ME as a running mate!"

I also believe the American people are thinking, "Ok, who's running for President? Oh, I don't like that about this guy, I don't like that about that guy, and . . . no, I'm not too thrilled about that other guy. Wait, what did THAT guy say? What's his name? Mike Huckabee? Hmm . . ."

Go Mike!
