Huckabee backers keep the faith - Wife of GOP hopeful touts conservative values at stop

When Janet Huckabee becomes first lady, she said, the first thing she’s going to do is take a nap. After getting her rest from all the presidential campaigning she’s done for her husband, Republican candidate Mike Huckabee, that’s when she’ll see where the U.S. stands and what she can do to make it a better place.

She isn’t the only who wants to see the way things work in America change. During a string of campaign stops throughout the state, Huckabee visited the coffee shop Uncommon Grounds at Dover Wednesday night, encouraging the more than 50 people in attendance to stand up for change in federal government by electing her husband, the former governor of Arkansas.

“It’s not all about us,” Huckabee said to the attendants, who were both young and old. “It’s about this country and how we’re going to hand it over to the next generation. We need to leave the country in better shape than we found it.”

Although she admitted that her husband is the “meat” of the campaign and she’s the “vegetables,” Huckabee was able to answer questions about her husband’s beliefs and the things he’d like to do for the country if elected president.
