This is pretty insane. A team Blogger effort. Three bloggers have joined together to endorse a political candidate. Incredible. Whodah thunk it could be dun!

They write:

“Because we are pragmatic idealists we are endorsing Gov. Mike Huckabee.

For several months we have admired the scrappy campaign of Gov. Huckabee but believed it would be a wasted effort to support him with our time, energy, and finances. We bought into the notion that he could never get the GOP nomination since conservative voters would not support him. And the reason we were told conservative voters would never support him is because he could not get the nomination. To quote John Piper (from a different context), “It’s like the army being defeated because there aren’t enough troops, and the troops won’t sign up because the army’s being defeated.”

We can no longer sit idly by and allow the campaign of a worthy candidate and an honorable man to flounder for lack of support.

Only after prayerfully considering the issues, the candidates, and the electoral calculus have we decided to settle on this joint endorsement. We hope that you will join us in careful deliberation of Gov. Huckabee’s candidacy and that you will join us in pledging to cast a sacred vote for the office of President of the United States. Our army may go down in defeat, but it won’t be because we refused to enlist in this worthy cause.” Read the    ENTIRE endorsement here.

Don’t forget to visit the endorser’s sites often.

I Love Huckabee, a new site just launched.
