Huckabee coming to Waco Thursday
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee will make a campaign stop on Thursday at the Waco Hilton hotel, according to a posting on the presidential candidate’s Web site.
Huckabee spokesman Jim Harris said he could not confirm the visit when reached by phone Monday morning. The posting on the Huckabee Web site says the Republican candidate will be in town at 3 p.m.
“If you live in the Central Texas area come out to hear the Governor!” reads the Web site posting. To read it yourself, click here.
Blake Buchanan, a Baylor University student organizing local Huckabee supporters, said those seeking more info on the event can visit their local Meetup page.
12:20 p.m. UPDATE: Still waiting to here back from campaign staff, but if you are looking for a laugh check out the following clip from Huckabee’s apperance on Saturday Night Live. Can this guy not get a hint or what?

Did you actually just write “Can this guy not get a hint or what?” That is part of the bit…listen to the line preceeding it - come on!

I regret that Huckabee won’t be the Republican candidate. NOT that I espouse all of his views, but he’s better than John McCain, IMHO. It’s sad that his endorsement of the Fair Tax didn’t get more air time, but that is to be expected. NOBODY except normal folks would encourage such a concept.
At the risk of sounding fanatical, I’d like to suggest that anyone interested check out the home page.
