Storming the State House provides a revealing, behind-the-scenes look into the campaign that elected Alabama's first Republican legislature in modern history and liberated the state from 136 years of Democrat Party rule.
In the historic 2010 election, Mike Hubbard became the first Republican Speaker of the House since Reconstruction. He is a businessman and state legislator from Auburn, Alabama; he worked for the Auburn University athletic department's media relations office and, in 1994, formed his own multi-media and marketing company, Auburn Network, Inc. Hubbard served as House minority leader 2005-10 and completed two terms as chairman of the Alabama Republican Party. Hubbard's wife, Dr. Susan Hubbard, is a professor and associate dean in Auburn University's College of Human Sciences. They have two sons, Clayte and Riley. The Hubbards are active members of the Auburn United Methodist Church.
