Hunter Endorses Huckabee

This just in from CNN:

California Rep. Duncan Hunter, a former presidential candidate, announced Wednesday he is endorsing Mike Huckabee's White House bid.

“I got to know Governor Huckabee well on the campaign trail,” Hunter said in a statement. “Of the remaining candidates I feel that he is strongly committed to strengthening national defense, constructing the border fence and meeting the challenge of China’s emergence as a military superpower that is taking large portions of America’s industrial base.

"Along with these issues of national security, border enforcement and protecting the U.S. industrial base, I see another quality of Mike Huckabee’s candidacy that compels my endorsement," he added. "Mike Huckabee is a man of outstanding character and integrity. I saw that character over the last year of campaigning and was greatly impressed. The other Republican candidates have many strengths and I wish them all well."

Wow! That is great.
I'm praying for something big every day for Governor Huckabee -
Monday was his attendance at the service for Martin Luther King, yesterday was his speaking at the pro-life service in Atlanta along with Fred Thompson's stepping down (and Mike's gracious invitation for his followers to consider him), and today Duncan Hunter's articulate support of Governor Huckabee. Wonderful!

Tomorrow - praying for a great debate, and some serious fund-raising for Friday! Looking for that endorsement from National Right to Life, too - praying that's next!
