Northeast Tennessee for Huckabee had a meeting yesterday. There was a good turnout. Below is a picture and very short video clip.
In the meantime, you should also take a look at Governor Huckabee's speech to the AFA on Monday. You can find that post here.
I think a reminder of just how far Governor Huckabee has come is in order.
In January 2007, a Rasmussen National Poll for the Republican Nomination put Mike Huckabee with 1%
Roughly one year later, the weekly average for the Nomination put Mike Huckabee in a much better position. Over the most recent 7 week period, Mike Huckabee has either led, or been in serious contention, in the tracking poll.
To be clear, Governor Huckabee's numbers might significantly change due to the South Carolin Primary Results. But even if they do, Governor Huckabee has made an amazing showing thus far. And yes, we did say "thus far." If the past is any indication, Governor Huckabee will be marginalized and written off by both the media and the other candidates seeking the office. And, if the past is any indication, Governor Huckabee will continue to surprise.
Now we are heading into the Florida primary, and on to Super Tuesday. Tennessee is a Super Tuesday state, and we plan on helping Governor Huckabee do well in this state.
We received an email from the campaign reflecting on the race so far, and laying out the strategy for the future. We fall into the Super Tuesday portion of the strategy, and the campaign has laid out the following goal for the Super Tuesday states.
1. Launch of online headquarters in every Super Tuesday primary state. We will need bloggers in each state to help organize our grassroots efforts. We will send state specific emails discussing our goals in each state.
We are pleased to help in this effort. We ask fellow Tennesseans to help us.
Three ways that Northeastern Tennesseans can help is to:
What better indication of a swirl of momentum than the amazing fundraising that the campaign has done in the last 36 hours. Last night, the campaign sent out an email indicating that their strategy in South Carolina would require an additional $300,000. As of this post, they are only $15,275 short.
If you would like to give, please use our Northeast Tennessee for Huckabee donor code, which is R6228.
