Huckabee will be going up on cable in Iowa next week with the first TV ad of his campaign, according to Republican sources. The buy is estimated at about $60,000 so far.

No one with the Club for Growth on his heels can win the nomination. All you're doing is splitting the vote and making a path for Rudy, a man whose plan to win is to take the states where no one campaigns and no candidate's views are scrutinized. If you want this race to be about issues, then stand up in Iowa and give Mitt the vote. Otherwise, Huck will go to NH and get creamed by the no tax people. Whine all you want, but Mike doesn't have the means for a national fight against Rudy. Only Mitt can fund that uphill fight. The system sucks but it is what it is. Republican moderates lose in the general - Rudy won't beat the Clintons. Please, Iowa, don't make this mistake.</description></item><item><title>Huckabee goes on air next week</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/14/466950.aspx#467152</link><pubDate>Wed, 14 Nov 2007 22:42:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:467152</guid><dc:creator>D.P.</dc:creator><description>Chuck &amp;amp; Domenenico,&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp; I can't wait! &amp;nbsp;I enjoy this man's authenticity. &amp;nbsp;Gov.

Romney, and others, are invested in the current income tax system and continue to demagog ( &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://snipurl.com/taxpanelrebutted"&gt;http://snipurl.com/taxpanelrebutted&lt;/a&gt; ) the well-researched FairTax plan, despite that its acceptance in the professional / academic community ( &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://snipurl.com/econsopenletter"&gt;http://snipurl.com/econsopenletter&lt;/a&gt; ) continues to grow. And Huck's opponents are oblivious to renown economist Laurence Kotlikoff who believes that failure to enact the FairTax - choosing instead to try to &amp;quot;flatten&amp;quot; what he deems to be a non-flattenable income tax system - will eventuate into an irrevocable economic meltdown ( &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://snipurl.com/meltdowninprogress"&gt;http://snipurl.com/meltdowninprogress&lt;/a&gt; ) because of the hidden aspects of the current system that make political accountability impossible. &lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Huckabee goes on air next week</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/14/466950.aspx#467195</link><pubDate>Wed, 14 Nov 2007 22:54:21 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:467195</guid><dc:creator>Ken, north little rock, ar</dc:creator><description>Go Mike Go!</description></item><item><title>Huckabee goes on air next week</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/14/466950.aspx#467271</link><pubDate>Wed, 14 Nov 2007 23:44:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:467271</guid><dc:creator>Colin Ashley</dc:creator><description>It's interesting that Mike Huckabee's polling numbers have reached 21% in Iowa with $0 spent on television advertising to date - while Romney has spent a massive $10 million in Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With Huckabee's current momentum, press coverage, and upcoming TV advertising, it's now just a question of when he will surge past Romney.
