Mike Huckabee is sponsoring a "money bomb" December 12th. Apparently he needs more gas for his bus...

I just figured I would let you guys all know when another "grassroots" money bomb was going to fail.

If I didn't see it for myself I would have thought you were joking. Gas for the bus? Come on now!

[Ginobili]

el 2 the oh 2 to the el. The force is telling me its going to be a huge flop. Sure, he may have alot of christians backing his heretical @$$, but saddly... alot of us dont know how to use the internet so well. Hence the fact they think he is a good guy :P

[dircha]

I'm going to sign up.

Then I'm not going to donate.

They're too afraid to post a running total of pledges. But they say that they will send out the totals by email to those who pledge in the days leading up to it.

Anyone who wants to keep tabs on the Huckster should pledge and not donate.

And hey, you pussies over at Huck's Army reading this, I would vote for Hillary before I would vote for George W Huckabee, and I'm a lifelong Republican. Get out of my party.

[shrapnel88]

is he going to tax them on their donations?

[rory096]

Interesting that it's actually paid for by the campaign (and being promoted by the campaign website).

[dircha]

100%. These are extra gasoline taxes you pay just for fun, if you didn't have enough fun paying the the tax increases on gasoline while Huckabee was governor.

And I'd advise you to stay off the bus. It's full of released rapists and murderers, and is being driven by his sociopath son.

But they sing Kumbaya and Jesus Loves Me while on the road, so it's all cool. And boy does Mike wail on that guitar.

[TechnoGuyRob]

Come on, guys. Surely someone will chip in to pay the fare for Huck's bus rides. A presidential candidate needs to travel, you know.

[njandrewg]

Didn't Huckabee guys already do a money bomb that failed horribly? Guess they haven't learned

[TheNewYorker]

lol, "paid for by Mike Huckabaa for president, www.mikehuckabee.com".


Sad.

At least our big money-bomb days have been organized by supporters.

[slantedview]

this is good. because our money bomb will come immediately after, crushing his numbers.

[Alan84]

Some of you belong to the French revolution than the American revolution. The former was defensive, while the latter was aggressive. Keep demonizing other fellow Americans who happen to not agree with you.

Apparently, it's not grassroots. His campaign organized it. Is that legal? :eek:

[me3]

Huckabee has been outraising us lately.

I wouldn't get overconfident. His ranks have swelled with the unofficial Christian endorsement.

I don't see enough people promoting Tea Party. By now, we should be at 35,000 pledges.

[GregVernon]

Apparently, it's not grassroots. His campaign organized it. Is that legal? :eek:

I noticed that, thats why I put grassroots in quotations. I would think this would be legal though, I mean, thats just him asking his donors to donate on one specific date.
Even if its not, he won't get that much from it to even make a difference...

He'd get more gas for his donors' dollars if he was a non-interventionist. It's his retarded foreign policy that makes gas for his bus so expensive.

What a retard.

[davidhperry]

I want to encourage people not to sign up for the Huck fundraiser. It doesn't help our cause in any way and we would be pissed if they did that to us. Besides, you KNOW the Huck camp would figure out a way to blame us for whatever happens.

I'll never stop being amazed at how blatant the Huckabee campaign is at copying what we do. So much for original ideas.

[RonPaulFanInGA]

Come on Huckabee, why not take the December 16th Ron Paul money bomb head-on? I'd be interested to see how that'd turn out.

The Huckabus? Groan.

[RPsupporterAtHeart]

OK seriously though. "Huckabus" That's terrible.........just terrible.

[Mark37snj]

Huckabee knows we love to out donate him on his money bombs and I'll be money that he started it to deflate our money bomb on the 16th. DON'T FALL FOR IT!!!! KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE PRIZE... THE TEAPARTY DECEMBER 16th!!!!! Out donating Huckabee on the 12th is MEANINGLESS!!!!!!

[Geronimo]

Don't most buses run on diesel? I don't think I've never seen a bus that ran on gas.



Edit: Thank you for joining us and for your pledge to give $100 on December 12th to keep Huckabee Rolling!

We will be sending regular emails to you with information on the number of pledges leading up to the 12th.

[justinc.1089]

Yeah do NOT sign up for that lol.

There are a lot of reasons not too, like hyping them up with bigger numbers therefore causing more real donors to sign up and therefore making it more successful, and the fact that when it doesn't do much they can legitamely blame us somewhat lol.

So this is a fundraiser and not an announcement for Huckabee's gas rationing plan after we can't get oil thanks to an interventionist foreign policy? lol:p:D:rolleyes:

Same here 100%, Huckabee is a Joke who would ruin our country,, with more of the same BS that we are getting from washington nowadays. I hate him the most of the other Republicans, he's the most pandering, sweet talking Fake i've seen. At least Romney and Ghouliani are somewhat steadfast on there terriable points of view,, Huckabee is all Joking "dwuhhhh let's send hillary to the moon" "Edwards at a Beauty Shop" Duuuhhh I'm a sarcastic doufous,, elect me for president.

I expect them to raise probably 1 Million,,

[brumans]

Huckabee also stole the live running donation counter on the website from the Ron Paul campaign

Who else had/has it?

Still, you know they took the idea from the Ron Paul campaign.

Well, wikipedia for one... Granted Ron is the first politician to use it as far as I know, he didn't come up with the origional idea.

[brumans]

Ahh.. well duh. It's still an original idea for a politician to do it. I thought you meant he stole it from another campaign.

[RonPaulFanInGA]

I expect them to raise probably 1 Million,,

Less enthusiastic supporters, fairly newly created money bomb with little time between now and the set date, less promotion and following on the internet....

I can't imagine it doing better than the over 500,000 dollars raised on November 30 (RudysReadingList).

[quickmike]

Do NOT sign up to pledge, that will only enourage them.

I agree. These people are sheep that need to be led. If we sign up, even as a joke, it might make them confident enough to actually donate for this BS fuel scheme.

Earlier this evening, I decided to pledge to help raise money for putting gas in Huck's bus. After doing some research on Mr. Huckabee, I've decided to take back my pledge. Please, take me off of your mailing list, and please tell Mr. Huckabee to do this country a favor and withdraw his candidacy.

"Huckabee supported (in chronological order) a sales tax hike; gas and diesel fuel tax hikes; another sales tax hike; a cigarette tax hike; a nursing home bed tax; another sales tax hike; an income surcharge tax; a tobacco tax hike; taxes on Internet access; and higher beer taxes."

Hell, just those last two alone should turn off 99% of the american public.

Higer beer taxes????:eek:

Oh give it a rest. The whole system is against Ron. We know we are fighting for good. And given this unfair playing field, I see no problem with using our intelligence and enthusiasm in sabotaging other campaigns. The reason this campaign is doing so well is that people who support Ron more intelligent than others, hence they have better organization and more original ideas. How could any intelligent and morally sound person support Giuliani, Romney, Huckabee, McCain, Hillary, Obama.........anyone with half a brain can see that they are puppets, corporate shills and liars who change their positions based on the polls. I can't imagine what the f-wits would talk about at a Hiliary or Giuliani meetup. The only thing I can think of that they would talk about is how much they love fascism. RP people are more passionate and intelligent. That's why you see RP people out in the streets screaming his name and hunting down and staking out other candidates to tell them they are sellouts. I don't see videos of people yelling GIULIANI!! or HILLARY!! because the sheep who support them don't really know what they are supporting and are therefore not passionate. I reckon alot of ignorant women support Hillary for ONE REASON, and that is that they are rabid feminists (I've got nothing against feminists btw) who want to see a women be president and don't care that she is a war-mongering elitist.

Didn't Huckabee guys already do a money bomb that failed horribly? Guess they haven't learned

He brought in over $200,000. That's not a bad take at all.

Of course, we beat him on that day when we found out about it and competed with his supporters. But he's outraised us on a few days here recently. (However, they were days when there wasn't a lot of activity from our end and no special events or fundraising emails sent out.) But I'm extremely skeptical that Huckabee's supporters can pull off a one-day money bomb with results that come anywhere close to November 5, much less what is expected on the Tea Party. Plus, if I'm not mistaken, this is a brand new site just launched a couple of days ago, correct? If so, there's no way they can coordinate our level of pledges and donors that quickly.

[theantirobot]

They're really missing the point entirely if they organize it themselves.

[manny]

qft

We should concentrate more on Ron Paul and less on Huckabee.

Reading http://www.taxhikemike.org/ makes it plain that he couldn't run a country. I still think that Rudy or Fred will be a bigger threat - the polls are laughable as we all know - and soon Huck will cease to be media flavor of the month.

[jrich4rpaul]

Do not compete with Mike's money bomb on this day! It is an attempt to drain out the December 16th donations!!!

[LibertyEagle]

I'm going to sign up.

Then I'm not going to donate.

Please don't do this. It is extremely low class. How do we like it when others do it to us, eh? C'mon. Just leave them alone. We have our own fundraiser to focus on. :)

[LibertyEagle]

Way to go, folks! Make fun of Huckabee's supporters! :rolleyes: All you are doing is making them angry. Remember what that did to us? It emboldened us. Do you really want that to happen to them? THINK ABOUT IT.

Remember that we want people who are currently supporting other candidates to end up coming over into our camp. Huckabee's supporters aren't bad people. I doubt many of them even know much about him really being a liberal in disguise. When they find out the truth, they're going to bail. They're darn sure not going to come here, after we've insulted them!

Please stop insulting them! It doesn't help us, at all.

Agree. Let's not resort to 'Wonkette' style underground subtrefuge.

Nevertheless, anyone that DOES sign up to Huckabee's list should contribute. Maybe just one to five bucks. But even spies need to keep their cover.

[Corydoras]

Let's not resort to 'Wonkette' style underground subtrefuge.
