Default Huckabee's Campaign Runs Out of Money

Huckabee Broke

Published 1/22/2008

Less than a month after a huge upset victory, and promises that fundraising would be ramped up, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is asking his senior staff to keep working for him without pay, while lower level campaign staff are seeing their salaries cut dramatically or eliminated altogether.

"The goal is to get a leaner, meaner campaign structure moving into Super Tuesday," says a senior campaign adviser.

But many of those being asked to take the cut are refusing, and walking away, leaving the campaign with holes to fill.

"The money simply hasn't come in at the rate that we expected," says the aide. "Florida is a $7 million commitment that we can't meet, and if we did, that leaves us exposed for Super Tuesday, where we have a lot of states and a lot media buys. We had to make tough decisions."

Rest of Article Here

Good news. Suckabee is running on fumes.

He doesn't have the steady supply of Iranian money that Ron Paul receives.
(kidding of course)

By the way, I hear the Ron Paul MLK "Money Bomb" was a Money Bust. Are the Paulistinians giving up hope, or did they just pick the wrong day for fundraising?

On a positive note, I hear Paul picked up a key endorsement several weeks ago:
Paul Picks Up Backing From Mel Gibson’s Dad

I wouldn't call $1.85 million in one day a money bust. I'm sure Huckabee would like to have it.

And I've already explained why racists are confused idiots to support Ron Paul since he advocates no policy of racism here and here.

Why would they care what Ron Paul thinks so long as his policies are in line with their views?

At least he knows what "liberty" really means. If you want to be REALLY safe, you should have said "When I decide to enlist in the military."

Their stupidity leads to these types of assumptions. Look at KrucKenK in the links I posted. He jumps all over blatant lies in the desperate hope that Ron Paul really is a racist.
