An unusual endorsement to announce today: Chuck Norris has endorsed Mike Huckabee. This is great news for the Huckabee campaign in lots of ways. From firsthand experience, I know that Norris has a large cult following among young people. Hopefully some will hear about his endorsement and decide to learn more about Huckabee. It is also good to know that a famous figure like Norris sees in Mike the great qualities that I have seen all along. Norris posted a very detailed explanation of his endorsement on Mike’s blog, which you can see here. Chuck said: “I believe the only one who has all of the characteristics to lead America forward into the future is ex-Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee. Mike Huckabee is the real deal.” Here’s another quote:
Friends, it’s time for people to get off the bench and onto the playing field. If we are going to see a man like Mike Huckabee elected, it’s time to rally
behind him, support him financially, pray for him daily and spread the word of his character, platform and experience.So can a man who was raised in a poor background from Hope, Ark., become governor then president? As Mike says, “Our country has already proven that!” What I would ask is: Give Hope another chance! This time, they want to send in the real cavalry.
Keep Hope alive! Join my wife Gena and me by electing Mike Huckabee in ‘08!
It looks like Chuck wants to see Mike give Hillary Clinton one huge round-house kick in the face next November.
