She has now been hired by the Pawlenty campaign. Just in time for the Ames straw poll which is 39 days away.
From Tim Pawlenty's release:
Sarah Huckabee Sanders is joining Gov. Tim Pawlenty’s presidential campaign as senior political adviser. She begins her new role in the campaign’s Iowa headquarters today, taking the lead for the campaign on the Iowa Straw Poll effort with a focus on expanding the campaign’s grassroots operations across the first-in-the-nation caucus state.
Sarah Huckabee was recently voted one of Time's 40 under 40 rising stars in American Politics:

Looks like Pawlenty is trying to acquire the former Huckabee supporters to boost his faltering campaign.
I didn't know he had a daughter. I thought his kids were all boys like Mitt.
Do you think she'll be able to help that much?
I don't!
does this mean huckabee himself will endorse pawlenty? i dont think so, i personally think huck will endorse whoever is polling closest to romney, likely michelle bachmann.
Someone refresh my memory for me. It seems to me that Sarah Huckabee was the website director for the campaign in 08, and that she made anti-Mormon comments and/or allowed them to stand.
At the very least, Huckabee should have removed the comments, but as we all know, they were not. Obviously, these people were his bread and butter, and now Pawlenty seeks to tap into that.
If this is as I remember, I can't get on board with this hire, Tim. You disappoint me. We need a candidate who can bring all of us together. I know you want those Huck faithful, but it shouldn't be at the expense of principles.
Remember what Reagan said--Everyone is welcome in our tent, but not the bigots.

I hope he's not paying too much.
"Remember what Reagan said--Everyone is welcome in our tent, but not the bigots." but if there are bigoted comments against non-Romney candidates, that is OK, right Martha?
OJ, No, of course not. Please tell me where I have ever endorsed bigoted comments about anyone.
