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.

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 http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2007/1...l-gibsons-dad/ |
