I like it!! That's the kind of thing that gets potential voters researching!

[recess]

The campain need go on the attack in NH, Attack Mccain, they need to define a sharp difference between RP and Mccain.

[TheIndependent]

Attack both Huckabee and McCain on taxes.

Attack Huckabee using his foreign policy gaffes.

Attack McCain for advocating our "troops could be in Iraq for 100 years."

We really have some work to get done.

Don't forget how McCain tried to shove the amnesty bill down our throats last summer. we know where he stands with immigration and the Nau. I can't believe Iowans (the majority anyway, no offense to our Iowa ron Paul supporters) are so stupid. Ron Paul should have been third at least. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

Attack Huck. We're not going to beat McCain or Romney, but 3rd place would be great.

uh, i'm pretty sure huck did sign the pledge to not raise taxes as president--if so, that's a really bad pamphlet

Huckabee is riding a wave that's about to wash up on shore. Ron Paul is smart to go after social conservatives, because he has a better record than any of the other candidates. Mitt Romney was hurt bad by last night and is in real trouble if McCain outperforms him in NH.

The best scenario now, and what should be the campaign's goal, is first in NH with McCain placing second and Romney third. There aren't a lot of evangelicals there as opposed to IA where they are 3/5 the population. This voting block will help in SC, if Ron Paul can catch them with the positive press from NH. It's best to plan early.

Ron Paul got a thumb's up from Pat Robertson (which means nothing to me, but he has a strong viewership.) Chuck Baldwin has endorsed Ron Paul since early on in the campaign.

Where Ron Paul outshines Huckabee is fiscal conservatism, economics and foreign policy. We all know Ron Paul's a better social conservative, too, but the media hurt the campaign early on with the attacks coming from the left and the right.

It's time to step up the game. On two the next phase...

:

It is also true that since our initial white paper in January, Huckabee has signed Americans for Tax Reform's anti-tax pledge[36] and embraced a Fair Tax proposal on the campaign trail.

Mike Huckabee has been going round telling folks in Iowa he has a theology degree, when in fact he hasn't, because he dropped out of the degree course!! :eek:

Naughty boy!! The Book of Revelations will be a quite different book when this whole campaign is over!!

[internetsurfer]

Ads exposing the truth about candidates are okay if they are accurate and relevant. Huckabible will falter in NH. If RP gets a third we'll be doing just fine.

Let's keep on truckin'.

[itshappening]

Attack McCain on the war and taxes !!

[snaFU]

I thought attacking wasn't our style...I guess we are desperate now? :rolleyes:

I like it. There is a difference between personal attacks and drawing comparisons between candidates on issues that are important to voters. This ad is not under-handed, confrontational or mean. It's honest and to the point.

It's honest and to the point.Absolutely! If Huckabee can stand up three times and say he has a theology degree when he hasn't, it is as if he is trying to ingratiate himself with an audience with information he hopes will impress - true or otherwise. If he is capable of it once, then he may do it again. That is surely evidence of character for public information.

However, innuendo and gossip should have no place in an election.

This from World News on Huckabee's testing times in the classroom!
