Some Huckabee Aides Not Getting Paid

ATLANTA

In a sign of the financial difficulties facing Republican Mike Huckabee, his presidential
campaign said Tuesday that top advisers are working without pay and some aides have left.

"Most people are staying on," but a few have departed, adviser Ed Rollins said in an interview.
"A number of people, including myself," have agreed to forgo their pay in order to spend as much
as possible on television ads in vital states, Rollins said.

Campaign contributions continue to come in, he said. But he acknowledged that the former Arkansas
governor is stretched thin as he tries to compete in Florida's primary next Tuesday and many of the
two dozen states holding contests Feb. 5.

Huckabee told reporters late Monday he would evaluate the situation in Florida daily and decide
whether to keep campaigning in the state.

More about the other candidates....

7. I think he (Huckabee) is embarassing the Republican party
My husband thinks Huckabee is the one to watch, but I don't. I think Romney is the dark horse.

5. I don't watch MSNBC but I'm sure they're shilling for him.
I have renamed NBC- "The Church of NBC"

They make me sick. :puke:
