What’s Gov Got To Do With It?

Seems like a lot of things in our country of late have been heading south. Our economy sure has been heading south as the Obama administration and his left tilted allies on Capitol Hill seem to think that mortgaging our future and that of our children will solve the already out of control spending. Pork laden pet projects are viewed as the solution to debt that goes into the trillions. I think our level of sanity has gone south to silently sit by and swallow that senseless reasoning.

Our moral compass has been turned upside down as well as the President has just led us in a “National Gay, Lesbian, and Trans-Gender Pride” month. Magnetic north has become magnetic south. What is right is mocked. What is wrong is extolled. Abortion is facilitated while the value of life is degraded. When the compass points the wrong way, is it any wonder we walk in a moral wilderness?

Sadly for some, this moral and economic plunge have left them with emotions, hope, and political engagement likewise headed south. Nowhere is this more a temptation than in New Jersey where despite all the evidence for the need for change, again and again NJ voters seem to blindly follow the Democrat label on election day while Republicans repeatedly seem to erroneously believe being Democrat-lite will be a winning solution.

But now more than ever we as conservatives need to stand up and say “NO!” to Obamanocics, “No!” to Obamanation abomination and “No!” to giving up. It all starts with our owning the concept of personal responsibility. The question isn’t “what is Obama doing?”, “How is my state voting”, or “What faults are there in the Republican response to it all?” The issue is personal: “What do you and I believe and what are you and I willing to do about it? “ Win or lose we need to “Do the Right Thing” as Governor Mike Huckabee’s recent book encourages. If each of us would take that stand than those in the political middle who are tired of Democratic excess and Republican accommodation will be inspired to join us to restore our state and our country to greatness.

So what’s the Gov got to do with it? If we’re talking about Governor Corzine and his disastrous policies- that should give us reason to rally to a positive vision for our state and country that is far different than what he has given us. And if we’re talking about Governor Mike Huckabee, than I hope you’ll see that going south isn’t always a bad thing.! The former Arkansas governor is leading the way through HuckPAC to fight for what is right here in New Jersey and across our state. Come join Team Huck as we change our state and nation one person at a time. www.mikehuckabee.com

Some have recently advocated that Mike Huckabee should tone down the "God-talk" if he is to be elected. I believe that would be a path leading to the destruction of who Mike Huckabee is and hope of future electoral success.

What makes Mike Huckabee such a great leader is that he is real, transparent, honest, passionate, and driven by a faith that advocates doing unto others as you would be done to yourself. For him to "hide" any of this would be to bury what has made him a great leader. Those who do not share his religous beliefs will in large part respect his honesty and passion. To hide this message is to make him just another politician. The left would portray him negatively anyway. Far better for an honest and passionate expression of who he really is. For too long politicians have tried to pander to the middle thinking that will get the undecided voter. Sorry, it doesn't work, hasn't worked , and never will work. The non-political folks in the middle want a leader with authenticity, passion, and a plan. Mike Huckabee can excite that group more than any other . To dim his message or dress it up to be pc would be the key to dragging Mike back into the pack of inauthentic politicians trying to please everybody but inspiring only distrust. Many who do not share his beliefs will trust him as a leader. Were he to "tone down" the God-talk, he would cease to offer what is so refreshing to a land parched from phony politicians.

Yesterday Sarah Palin spoke at a pro-life banquet and rightfully received news coverage. Michael Steele, the head of the Republican party, commented on the event noting she was among a group of possible standard bearers for 2012. He reeled off a list of possible nominees with the notable absense of Gov. Mike Huckabee. How could you list a group of potential standard bearers without mentioning the guy that came in second last time? Gov. Huckabee rocketed to that position without initial name recognition, funds, or party support. He now has the first of those three. Just imagine if he had the other two components! I really want to get behind the republican party when I consider the Obama alternative but this kind of manipulative behavior which shuns a great candidate makes me wonder if they are any better. Did someone say "Tarp 1"? Come on Michael Steele just play it fair give Huckabee a shot and we'll have a whole different White House in January of 2013!

Tea Party is Terrific

I went to the tea party in Belmar NJ- on the ocean boardwalk. But What a great experience! Temperatures around 40 degrees with a cold biting wind and rain and occasional sleet didn't deter over 500 tea party teabaggers from protesting the tax and spend congress and president. I proudly wore my Mike Huckabee tea shirt when a CNN photographer took some footage so maybe that will show up on the air. The crowd was enthusiastic and was complemented by dozens of cars driving up and down the strip honking their horns in support. Truck air horns were especially welcomed and got the crowd going. On a day like this with only grassroots info going out, this was a tremendous success and show of support against the nonsense in Washington. Huckabee 2012!

What we need to hear

In the misdst of Obamanomics that says that if we have a trillion dollar debt we can fix it by spending trillions more, in the face of the destructive and devisive Michael Steele- Rush Limbaugh dust up, its clearer now more than ever that Americans need to unite behind a truly conservative leader who will represent the values that have made our country great. This speech shows who that leader is.
