Every candidate has their own prime top level domain name for their campaign. But how do they get these domains even if they are their name and how much do they pay? Currently, Mike Huckabee’s website(www.mikehuckabee.com) is pulling in donations of roughly $5000 every 15 minutes. Not bad. Apparently, the only person who had a say in whether Mike Huckabee’s website was MikeHuckabee.com, was the former domain owner and webmaster of Mike Huckabee. Man, did this old webmaster dislike Mike Huckabee! The question im posing is; Why did this anti-Huckabee person sell the domain to Huckabee and how much did he sell it for even if he knew Huckabee was hinting on running for President? Take a look.

Heres a picture of his website on Nov. 26, 2002….MikeHuckabee.com…

Now notice how the layout has changed a bit. This is from Nov. 2004, 2 years later.

Here’s MikeHuckabee.com on Sept. 2006, notice the top phrase. If I’m correct, Huckabee announced his plans to run for President about a year ago. Weird.

And Finally, the “For Sale” notice, I wonder how much Mike Huckabee paid for this domain?
