Hours To Go...All On The Line - email from: Sarah Huckabee

Huck PAC

Over the last several months we have all worked hard fighting for every dollar and now fighting for every vote. After several months we are still going strong and have committed to work hard up until the final vote is cast to get Huck PAC candidates elected. We are making calls, sending emails, and helping with last minute funding for some campaigns. The fight for life, traditional marriage, the 2nd amendment and lower taxes is not over and it is all on the line tomorrow.

We are so close to reaching our fundraising goal of 2800 contributions in 28 days, but we aren't there yet. We have only hours to go until our fundraising deadline and we are just 519 contributions away from our fundraising goal. Over 1,000 supporters made contributions this past week, including 700 first time supporters of Huck PAC. If you haven't made a contribution yet, I urge you to do so today.

I also urge you to get on the phones, or lace up your tennis shoes to knock doors and hold signs, to join Huck PAC in the fight. There are races all over the country that are going to come down to a handful of votes, We need your help to make a difference in those races.

Huck PAC has endorsed over 70 candidates, has done over 30 events, helped make millions of calls possible, and dropped almost 60,000 pieces of mail in people's mailboxes to support conservative candidates. But we want to do more in these final hours and we need your help to do it.

I am writing this email today instead of my dad because he is still campaigning in these final hours. He is flying to Joplin, Missouri right now for an afternoon rally for Senator McCain and doing radio and TV interviews along the way. We are still investing money in candidates as I type this email, please join with us.

We are fighting hard and we hope you will stand with us. Please make a contribution today in whatever amount you can afford.

Sincerely,


Sarah Huckabee


P.S. As we said before anyone who contributes $10 or more by tomorrow at midnight will receive the new HUCK bumper sticker.

Melanie Grayson of Muskogee, OK: McCain's Political Strategy, with Regard to the Financial Crisis. New ad for McCain...starring Bill Clinton

This info posted with much thanks to Mrs. Grayson for permitting us to take a peak at what she is up to. She and her husband, William, are grassroots supporters, who played many integral roles in helping Gov. Huckabee to win the 2nd Congressional District of Oklahoma.

I am not a professional campaign adviser, but things aren't looking so good for the McCain camp right now. I am fed up with John McCain allowing Obama to take a free ride on our current financial crisis.

It is not exploiting the situation to let people know the part the Democrats, and specifically Obama, have played in the financial mess we are in.

I think he needs to roll the dice and take a chance on being accused of exploitation. What does he have to lose at this point? He's already headed for losing the election if he doesn't grab the bull by the horns.

Below is the email I sent and the response I received from the McCain campaign this morning. If you think he should stop holding back, I urge you to contact the campaign and let them know.

Subject: Maverick, Let's Roll

I am impatiently waiting for John McCain to act on the financial crisis in his campaign. It has been politicized, it is political and and he needs to give it to Obama with both barrels. I watched in disgust on Sunday night as Nancy Pelosi raged against Bush Administration and all Republicans, including John McCain, while flanked by two people with a huge responsibility for this mess, Frank and Dodd. How could Dodd or Frank even have the audacity to speak, with the role they have played in this mess? McCain needs to be pointing out Dodd's role as chairman on the Senate Banking Committee and Franks's role as chairman of the House Financial Services Committee. What about the monies Dodd and Obama have received from Fannie and Freddie and Countrywide and probably many other corrupt lenders? Let's give some background on ACORN and their agenda and the Democrats relationship to that terrorist organization and the connection to what's going on now. Let's talk about how Obama trained ACORN activists in corrupt Chicago. This is no time for Mr Nice Guy; he's got to let them have it or he is going to LOSE, BIG TIME!

Respectfully,

And, here is the latest from the McCain camp: Bill Clinton will be starring in the next McCain commercial...

Bill Clinton the star of new McCain ad
Posted: 01:40 PM ET

From CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney
The McCain campaign is highlighting a recent Clinton interview in a new ad.
(CNN) — As he gears up to hit the campaign trail on behalf of Barack Obama later this week, former President Bill Clinton is the star of a new television ad — for John McCain.

Watch: New McCain ad features Bill Clinton

The Arizona senator's campaign is highlighting Clinton's remarks in an interview with ABC News last week during which he appeared to lay some of the blame of the current economic crisis on congressional Democrats.

"I think the responsibility that the Democrats have may rest more in resisting any efforts by Republicans in the Congress or by me when I was president to put some standards and tighten up a little on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac," Clinton said in the ABC News interview that is highlighted in the new McCain ad.

The announcer of the one-minute spot called "Rein" cites McCain's call for more regulation of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac two years ago and said "Democrats blocked the reforms."

"Loans soared. Then, the bubble burst. And, taxpayers are on the hook for billions. Bill Clinton knows who is responsible," the announcer also says.

But in the same interview with ABC, Clinton also said it is important not to assign blame at this time for the current state of the economy: "We are where we are. I think the most important thing is we got two candidates for president saying 'lets try to minimize the partisan differences,'" he said. "We will have plenty of time later to look at who caused this and what mistakes were made."

Those comments did not make it into the McCain ad.

The ad comes days after some Democrats grumbled the former president appeared to be overly praiseworthy of the Arizona senator as the final stretch of the heated presidential campaign gets under way. In the same interview with ABC News, Clinton defended McCain's call to possibly push back the first debate, saying it was a pledge made in "good faith." He also later said the Arizona senator had taken the lead in his party when it comes to climate change.

The commercial is called, "Rein":
