Congrats on Mike taking the Louisiana and Kansas caucuses. This makes Mike undefeated since Romney dropped out.
Washington state is still up in the air. Apparantly the Party Chair in Washington decided to call it for McCain with over 1500 votes yet to be counted and Huckabee was only trailing by 200 or so votes. The remaining precincts are said to be heavy Huckabee precincts. I do want to note, this is not the McCain camp that is doing this, it is the Republican Party Chair in Washington state. I do know that Huckabee has sent his team of lawyers to investigate the incident and demand that the votes be counted.

February 26th @ 7PM-Voter Awareness Clinic at Church
2008 Voter Awareness Clinic is being held at Real Family Fellowship on Feb. 26th @ 7 PM. This will be an opportunity for you to get up to date on the candidates and issues that are on the Parker County ballot. Jay Sorah and myself will be your commentators for the evening. All candidates on the Parker County ballot who have opponents have been invited to speak.
We are putting this on because as the Election Judge over the past few years, the biggest complaint I hear is that they don't know what they are voting on or for. We want to change that this year.
So, if you have a friend or relative or neighbor that needs some information about the upcoming March 4th primary, tell them about this clinic.

UPDATE: Huckabee get's endorsement from Dr. James Dobson
Special Alert
Feb. 7, 2008
Dr. James Dobson issues the following statement tonight, speaking as a private citizen.
I am endorsing Gov. Mike Huckabee for President of the United States today. My decision comes in the wake of my statement on Super Tuesday that I could not vote for Sen. John McCain, even if he goes on to win the Republican nomination. His record on the institution of the family and other conservative issues makes his candidacy a matter of conscience and concern for me.
That left two pro-family candidates whom I could support, but I was reluctant to choose between them. However, the decision by Gov. Mitt Romney to put his campaign "on hold" changes the political landscape. The remaining candidate for whom I could vote is Gov. Huckabee. His unwavering positions on the social issues, notably the institution of marriage, the importance of faith and the sanctity of human life, resonate deeply with me and with many others. That is why I will support Gov. Huckabee through the remaining primaries, and will vote for him in the general election if he should get the nomination. Obviously, the governor faces an uphill struggle, given the delegates already committed to Sen. McCain. Nevertheless, I believe he is our best remaining choice for President of the United States.

— James Dobson, one of the nation's most prominent evangelical Christian leaders, is about to endorse former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, The Associated Press has learned.
Dobson, founder of Colorado Springs, Colo.-based Focus on the Family, talked to the GOP presidential hopeful Thursday and later was to release a statement explaining his choice, said Gary Schneeberger, a spokesman for Dobson.
Huckabee had long sought Dobson's endorsement, believing he is the best fit to advance Dobson's conservative, moral worldview.
Until now, Dobson had never endorsed a GOP presidential hopeful during the primary campaign. But he ruled out front-runner John McCain in a blistering commentary on Super Tuesday, and on Thursday the fight for the GOP nomination narrowed to a two-man race between McCain and Huckabee, who is far behind in the delegate count but pledged to fight on. Mitt Romney, a third hopeful trying to claim the conservative label, dropped out of the race Thursday.
Dobson released a statement Tuesday that criticized McCain for his support of embryonic stem cell research, his opposition to a federal anti-gay marriage amendment and for his temper and use of foul language.
He said if McCain were the nominee, he would not cast a ballot for president for the first time in his life.
Dobson had left open the possibility that he would vote for either Romney or Huckabee, but endorsed neither.
Throughout the unsettled GOP race, Dobson picked his spots to signal that some candidates simply didn't meet his standards. Dobson wrote on a conservative news Web site that he wouldn't support former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani should he win the Republican nomination. Dobson called Giuliani an "unapologetic supporter of abortion on demand" and criticized him for signing a bill in 1997 creating domestic-partnership benefits in New York City.
At one point, Dobson said he'd consider voting for a minor-party candidate if faced with Giuliani as the nominee.
Later, Dobson ruled out former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson for his stands on issues. Dobson also said Thompson "has no passion, no zeal, and no apparent 'want to.'"
Dobson emphasizes that when he endorses candidates, he is doing so as a private citizen and not as a representative of Focus on the Family, a tax-exempt organization.

And then there were 2
Mitt Romney officially dropped out of the race today. He calls it suspending, but most political pundits say that is so he can still take contributions to help offset the $35 million of his money he put in.
That leaves John McCain and Mike Huckabee to fight to the finish. If you have not, please sign up to make calls for Huckabee. Romney all but endorsed McCain. He never said he endorsed him, but he called him by name and not Huckabee.

Sean Hannity endorses Romney, THE TRUTH
I needed to send this out, but I was very hesitant. However, after the endorsement that Mitt Romney received from Sean Hannity yesterday, I cannot hold my silence anymore.
In 2006, Bain Capital, which was founded by Mitt Romney, purchased Clear Channel Communications. Clear Channel owns and operates over 1200 radio and tv stations in America. Some of their talk show host include, Rush Limbaugh, who has stated that electing John McCain or Mike Huckabee would destroy the integrity of the Republican Party. It also includes Sean Hannity, who I stated earlier endorsed Mitt Romney. Sean Beck has continually slammed Mike Huckabee on several issues. I don’t know about you but it is clear that Ol’ Mitt is buying this election if he wins.
Please, pass this on to everyone you know. The light has to be shed on this man.
