This article gives an overview of the fundraising numbers of all the campaigns and affiliated Super PACs. Huckabee is number 10 among Republicans with 1,2 million raised by the campaign.

Regardless of the money not coming in, there's no way Huckabee would get out before Iowa.

I believe the boost Huckabee needs will have to come at Carson's expense.

No doubt the third quarter was a difficult one for the Huckabee campaign. Trump sucked out much oxygen. Many social conservatives gave their hearts and their money to Ben Carson. There is the sleek Cruz waiting in the shadows to become the next conservative savior.

Huck has it all, and much more, but no one wanted him - for now.

Did the campaign make mistakes? I don't know.
Should they re-focus, re-strategize? I don't know.
In their shoes, I wouldn't know what to do differently. It is difficult. So many giants out there. What can you do, if your own kin [Evangelicals and their leaders] are behaving so erratically?

So, yes, when Evangelicals (hopefully) eventually will see the light that neither Carson nor Trump is their savior, will they (re)turn to Huckabee, or rather choose Cruz or someone else?

I hope and pray they will choose Huckabee.

Huckabee all the way!!!!

I am afraid many Huckabee supporters are giving up, way too soon, listening to pundits and wringing their hands!

1. The problem is that people are waiting for someone else to do the job. I am guilty of that, too. Waiting for direction, when there is much I could be doing. For enthusiasm to start, we need to be involved and tell others about this wonderful man's record and what he wants to do. Get others enthused! We need to take along our lists of why he is best qualified, and open up and tell others.

2. We are not giving or volunteering at a level of enthusiasm that the newer leaders, like Carson and Trump are receiving. Cruz has his young enthusiasts, too, but he also has his wife's money and connections and the support of trial lawyers. Gov. Huckabee has had donors notice, but they have not been convinced he can pull ahead. They forget the uphill battle he had in 2008, and how he surprised everyone by coming in second. Keep praying for the donor(s) who will come along and believe in him, like the one that believed in Ronald Reagan and got his campaign going years ago.

3. With Gov. Huckabee being the only candidate out there who has the solutions and the experience to turn our nation around, we MUST for the sake of our nation and our children and grandchildren put our "all" into this effort to elect him! We have no second chance this time! Yes, we should try to ramp up our enthusiasm, but really, it is mostly about just getting out there and working. Contact the campaign and ask what you can do. Buy some Huckabee tee-shirts and wear them. Get bumper stickers. Hand out palm cards to people you meet each day. Pray!

4. The time is getting close to just 3 months before the Iowa caucus. Gov. Huckabee is working tirelessly. His wife is also. If we have the strong belief he is the best person to be President, we (and I am including myself!) have to start talking to more people, handing out those cards, etc. that the campaign is providing. I am afraid we are unaware of how late the time is getting.

I am praying that God will wake us and shake us. And help us to be a bit more positive.

5. Finally, I think this is also a spiritual battle between good and evil, between Christians and Christian-haters than any of us can imagine. We have many in power within this administration who are trying to destroy traditional values and freedom in America, including an all-out attack on our Constitution through the Supreme Court. If we lose our nation, our freedom, and our economy, we may never get them back.

God may raise up other supporters if we do not do our part, but I know I do not want to be guilty of not trying and having to tell our grandchildren that, yes, America was once the home of the brave and free, but we didn't do enough to save it. That we had a perfect candidate for the job, but let him slip through our fingers. I believe Gov. Huckabee alone has the proven ability and temperament to bring this nation together and to help heal its economic and other wounds. Cruz may talk about conservative values, but I don't see him appealing to Reagan Democrats or independents at anywhere near the level Gov. Huckabee could. Cruz has shown less ability to work across the aisle, even within his party. Only one of the Senate bills he proposed has passed.

If some people claim Huckabee has too much baggage, let's unpack the pack of lies and tell them the truth.

Most of the things people hold against him are falsehoods or misunderstandings; some are downright lies from people or groups that should know better.

Following in Gov. Huckabee's lead of not running down people of his party, we need to always show respect for others in answering them.

WE CANNOT GIVE UP! Let's use today and maybe this week to put together our list of people to call, write, email, or post on Facebook, with reasons we need Gov. Huckabee for President. And order some campaign items (they are really classy and well-done) to wear or give out. And let us know here what you have done!
