Former White House hopeful Mike Huckabee is writing a book that will be released November 18.

LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas (AP) — Two weeks after the next president is elected, Mike Huckabee will publish a book sharing details on his failed bid for the White House and offering his vision for remodeling the conservative movement.

Sentinel, a conservative imprint of Penguin Group (USA), said Wednesday it will publish the former Arkansas governor and one-time Republican presidential hopeful's next book, to be released November 18.

The book, not yet titled, will offer an insider's view of Huckabee's campaign and also offer his vision for the future, publishers said Wednesday.

Way to Go, Mike!
Good luck in your book endeavor!!
Say hi to Chuck for Me!!

Stacy Clarks, TX   April 24th, 2008 1:24 pm ET

Huck here is really trying to stay in the headlines…..

guess waht buddy, you have already been forgotten, go back to your little corner now

OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ken   April 24th, 2008 1:27 pm ET

His book should be titled: "The Dark Ages: The Modern Republican Party's Hope for America"…..or how about……. "How to Use America's Brain Death to Gain Republican Power for the Next Decade".

anne   April 24th, 2008 1:28 pm ET

Mike's not sitting back, but charging ahead to rebuild the GOP. By the way, what happened to Mitt, Fred, or Rudy?

Independent   April 24th, 2008 1:31 pm ET

Seriously? Details on the failed bid? I thought we lived that fairytale already!

brown   April 24th, 2008 1:32 pm ET

why do everyone always say white blue collar workers. what about the black blue collar workers. this sounds like a racial statement towards other origin. the clinton campaign uses this statement alot.

Ig   April 24th, 2008 1:36 pm ET

Even as a Democrat, I wanted this guy to be our next president. His calmness and honesty rivals Obama's. True talk ya'll!!!

Janel, St. Paul, MN   April 24th, 2008 1:44 pm ET

Good grief!

honkey white guy from cali   April 24th, 2008 1:49 pm ET

you know I am a very liberal democrat but I would be much happier if this guy had been there nominee! He at least was a likable and respectful guy with some values. Mc Cain is a old hater and has no presidential look to him at all! This guy was at least professional and presidential.

Go Obama 08 Yes We Can!!!

proud army and navy mom   April 24th, 2008 1:50 pm ET

that what Hillary should do. old girl, go make up some more sniper stories and get them published. just get out of the race

Chut Pata   April 24th, 2008 1:50 pm ET

Clinton of the Republican party. Wated for miracles that did not happen, atleast he believes in miracles. Clinton is doing just to destroy Obama.

MJ   April 24th, 2008 2:01 pm ET

I STILL LIKE MIKE. I HOPE YOU WILL BE ON THE TICKET AS VICE PRESIDENT IF CONDI RICE IS NOT ON IT.

I WILL BE WAITING FOR THE BOOK SIGNING IN MY CITY.

I STILL WON'T BE VOTING FOR MCCAIN BUT I WOULD HAVE VOTED FOR YOU, MIKE.

IT'S EITHER RON PAUL OR OBAMA FOR ME.

Sharon Kitchen   April 24th, 2008 2:04 pm ET

Although I will vote for Obama, I wish you had stayed in the race.
I wish you the best on the book deal—What is the title ? I will buy a copy. If you see or talk with Chuck Norris say hi, from the few Native Americans still in Ga. Most of my folks are either in N.C.,Ok.Ky.,etc.
All the best and may God bless .

darrell   April 24th, 2008 2:09 pm ET

who cares?????

Bridgette   April 24th, 2008 2:09 pm ET

I liked Mike Huckabee. I actually thought he and Obama would have made a good ticket. I know that sounds crazy but think about it for a minute that would be good ticket.

Tjaye   April 24th, 2008 2:11 pm ET

I am a DEDICATED Obama supporter, but I have to admit Mike Huckabee just seems like such a likable man! Plus, I like how he put HIS party's needs before his own personal gains. He dropped out because he knew he couldn't win and wanted a win for his party. I don't want them to win, but I respect his committment.

I hope great things happen for him.

Obama Oh-8!!

Priscilla   April 24th, 2008 2:15 pm ET

Who cares what Hucabee does?

AJ   April 24th, 2008 2:20 pm ET

Leave it to CNN to nit pick about this. If the shoe had been on the other foot, CNN would be touting it as a landslide.

Darth Vadik, CA   April 24th, 2008 2:21 pm ET

Let me tell you something about this guy:

He stayed in his campaign way too long, why? So he can get more money donations. Has anyone asked where that money is?

He created his PAC, why, to raise YES MONEY? for what? Republicans. Yeah right, well see a scandal in a few years invoving money "lost" and spent for personal trips and vacations.

Now a book deal, a bunch of garbage put on a piece of paper to make YES YOU GOT IT, MORE MONEY

Darth Vadik, CA   April 24th, 2008 2:22 pm ET

money money money oh so funny in a rich mans world…..

we wanh hillary, not mccain...screw him.   April 24th, 2008 2:25 pm ET

Who cares? Mike Huckabee should've stayed in the race because when mcCain is disqualified for being an illegal alien from Panama, the next GOP hopeful will win the nomination. Since Huckabee chose to drop out, RON PAUL will be the GOP nominee. Watch.

AJ   April 24th, 2008 2:26 pm ET

This man is a hate filled Bible banging bigot. I'm sure his book will be a bestseller, right alongside Ann Coulter and the rest of the "christian" hypocrites on the right.

we wanh hillary, not mccain...screw him.   April 24th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

Obama and Huckabee 2008.

T   April 24th, 2008 2:31 pm ET

to Darth Vadik,

please get a life !

thanks.

Steve   April 24th, 2008 2:33 pm ET

I thought that real religious people were supposed to help the poor and underpriviliged, not make money from book deals and shove themselves down our throats.

New Yorker   April 24th, 2008 2:55 pm ET

Very affable man- a little too affable. There's a nuance of Elmer Gantry about him.

Peter   April 24th, 2008 2:55 pm ET

Thanks is out of the race. He was the best of the Republican.
Hillary 08

CHERYL FOR HILLARY   April 24th, 2008 2:57 pm ET

Let's kick the Bums out o fthe White House

The tide is turning for Hillary …

——– Oh no it’s a Tsunami to wash her away.——————————–

Go away Hillary

Barack Obama 08

Justin   April 24th, 2008 3:13 pm ET

Who the hell would be dumb enough to buy this? And if so, how would they be smart enough to read it?

Realist   April 24th, 2008 3:20 pm ET

Well, he needs to make money somehow now? I'd recommend going back to preaching though. Should never have left.

Franky   April 24th, 2008 3:24 pm ET

"I liked Mike Huckabee. I actually thought he and Obama would have made a good ticket. I know that sounds crazy but think about it for a minute that would be good ticket."

I don't know, I don't even think that makes sense, LOL!!!! I mean, I like the Huckster too and I do in some part consider myself a Conservative but come on, I don't even know where to begin….LOL!!!!

JIM   April 24th, 2008 3:37 pm ET

Is he wrighting for Hustler now!!!!!

JOHN HAGGE   April 24th, 2008 3:41 pm ET

If this gets booted it would be the third time. I was rejected for saying that the future of American politics looks bright with people like Huckabee and Obama.

Roland   April 24th, 2008 3:57 pm ET

Looks like the Huckster is preparing for a Republican loss in November. This book is his opening shot for the 2012 campaign. Good grief.

Farrell, Houston, Tx   April 24th, 2008 4:00 pm ET

I won't be buying Huckabee's book but I wish him the best in sells to help him payoff his campaign debt.

Wayne, Greenville TX   April 24th, 2008 4:01 pm ET

Huckabee got a GREAT book deal. And he only has to buy six more books during the next 12 months. :-)

A REAL American   April 24th, 2008 4:20 pm ET

Ever notice it's the same Obamabots who keep spouting so much hatred, like Darth Vadik and Stacy from TX on EVERY article? You've been called out and exposed now, and you can't hide anymore!

Marshall in Nebraska   April 24th, 2008 4:23 pm ET

I hope it won't be filled with half-truths (AKA lies) like some other politicians book were. I will not name names, but you know who I am talking about!

Duckula   April 24th, 2008 4:28 pm ET

Gomer Fudd is getting a book deal? Too bad he won't be able to read it.
