On the contrary, The Club for Growth has a lot of credibility and an excellent track record. Their current president, Pat Toomey, was an excellent congressman and would have been our senator to replace Arlen Specter had Bush simply butted out of our primary.

I'd be very interested in what they have to say about the other candidates as well.

I'll grant you that Huckabee is likeable and was a far better governor than Clinton despite raising taxes. But the truth of the matter is that he is in way over his head and needs to attract more than the Gomer Pyle vote to win.

About Club for Growth

Club for Growth is a national network of thousands of Americans, from all walks of life, who believe that prosperity and opportunity come through economic freedom. We work to promote public policies that promote economic growth primarily through legislative involvement, issue advocacy, research, training and educational activity.

The primary tactic of the separate Club for Growth PAC is to provide financial support from Club members to viable pro-growth candidates to Congress, particularly in Republican primaries.

Club for Growth Policy Goals:

Making the Bush tax cuts permanent
Death tax repeal

Cutting and limiting government spending

Social Security reform with personal retirement accounts

Expanding free trade

Legal reform to end abusive lawsuits

Replacing the current tax code

School choice

Regulatory reform and deregulation
