Mike Likes Fair Tax

During the Republican Presidential debate Tuesday May 16, 2007 in Columbia SC Governor Huckabee scored points with conservatives by showing his support for the Fair Tax. He said:

"If we had a fair tax, it would eliminate not just the alternative minimum tax, personal income tax, corporate tax, it would eliminate all the various taxes that are hidden in our system, and Americans don’t realize what they’re paying.

It wouldn’t be a revenue increase or a revenue decrease, revenue neutral. But it also enables people at the lowest end of the economic spectrum to have a chance to reach the next rung on the ladder. It’s the best proposal that we ought to have, because it’s flatter, it’s fairer, it’s finite, it’s family-friendly."

Pro-Life Federation Rates the Candidates on Abortion

The choice is clear for Pro-Life Voters! Huckabee or Brownback. We like Mike.

Yesterday, Mayor Giuliani decided to show his true colors. He formally announced he is pro-choice. The question now is,"Will evengalicals use this as a litmus test by choosing pro-life candidates Huckabee or Brownback?" I think they should, what do you think? I suspect some of the less informed will give Rudy credit for "being honest".

For me, the choice is clear; on all the issues, Governor Huckabee is the most consistent social and fiscal conservative with executive experience.

Sarah Huckabee says, "Dad did very well in Debates"

My dad didn't say this in his last email to you, (because he's too modest) but he did a great job in last week's debate. Of course I'm biased so don't take my word for it, read some of the commentary from the national media:

"Mike Huckabee is really terrific. It's hard to know whether a debate watched only by a few million people can really launch someone, but I'd say halfway through that he is far and away the most likable and eloquent candidate on that stage."
-John Podhoretz, National Review

"I thought the person that helped themself the most was Mike Huckabee...Yes, but I think he came close to entering the top tier or really elevating himself. First of all, he was a good personality, a very relaxed, warm presence. Second thing, he actually branded himself. You know, you've got 10 guys up there. Distinguish yourself. And he actually distinguished himself as sort of a populist, straight-talking person from out in the country."
-David Brooks

"I thought Huckabee came across as authentic, as well as likeable. And then there was naturalness to him. He answered the questions. He didn't have talking points."
-Syndicated columnist Mark Shields

Since the debate my dad is working twice as hard. In fact, everyone on the campaign team is working twice as hard. It is a great feeling to witness the momentum and the excitement building. To help the campaign maintain its energy, I hope that you will match my dad's commitment right now by taking an important step, just days before the next Republican presidential debate in South Carolina.

I ask you to show your commitment to his campaign by making a contribution of $25, $50, $75, $100, $250 or even $500 to help build the campaign's momentum. To make a contribution, please click here.

A contribution today will help send an important signal that my dad's campaign is continuing to gain strength and constantly growing.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Sincerely,

Sarah Huckabee
