Governor Huckabee could not have been more on target with his speech and he could not have done a better job in making people feel good about his visit. He was down to earth, very accommodating to every request, and totally low maintenance. He was a gentleman and a wonderful addition to our event. We took in a record amount of donations and there was much to owe that to, but Governor Huckabee was certainly a part of that and we are very, very grateful
