Enough Huntsman Talk
Pundit Press ^ | 6/27/2011 | Thomas Ferdousi

Posted on 06/27/2011 7:22:11 AM PDT by therightliveswithus

I am sick and tired of hearing Jon Huntsman Jr's. name mentioned in the 2012 Presidential election. He has little chance of breaking ten percent in any opinion polls, and many of his policy positions are in direct opposition to rank-and-file Republican principles. Especially in the more Conservative Republican Party of 2012.

His entire 2012 campaign is the creation of liberal media types obsessed with sabotaging our electoral chances next year by saddling the base with someone just as detestable as Obama. And Jon Huntsman Jr., who until recently served as Obama's Ambassador to China for two years, fits that bill almost perfectly.

In fact, Huntsman has even admitted that his campaign will be mainly targeting Independent voters in South Carolina and New Hampshire's open primaries; not registered Republicans. Talk about your ideal liberal media type candidate.

So could we please retire the Huntsman campaign? Put it on medicare; throw it a retirement party, and kick it out of the 2012 Republican nomination process. We can, and we must do better than Huntsman next year against Barack Obama.

I guess the idea is that he is a rich man who can buy himself publicity, even though most Republicans couldn’t give a flying-fig about this RINO.

One pundit labeled Huntsman “McCain without the Military Service.”

Sounds about right to me. Another gray, let’s-get-along moderate. Just what we need!

This is not fair.

What about Harry Reid? He needs a GOP candidate.

And Romney needs a Trojan Horse. Good thing
he doubled down on Michele Bachmann.

“Good thing he doubled down on Michele Bachmann.”

In your opinion. Lots of people been saying that. Most of them seem to be fans of a non-candidate, pissed and jealous that another woman is getting attention. FGS this is like high school all over again.

Well, RomneyBOT, Gov. Palin HELPED and supported
backstabber Bachmann. THOSE are NOT the signs
of being “pissed and jealous”.

Nope.

In return, the backstabber Bachmann-backstabber Rollins
team did their modus operandi a la Team Romney.

How does that work for you?

bachman’s interview this weekend made her look like a typical female lawyer turned opportunist politician.

if she thought it would win her seat she would have stayed a democrat and marched with the seiu and gov cuomo this past weekend.

“this is like high school all over again.”

You just put your finger on it!

You are very philosophic, Grunthor, because society today IS endless high school!

It is filled with confused and frightened eternal adolescents with heads full of mush from too much useless, liberal education and, later, lefty political propaganda.

If you didn’t like high school(I DETESTED it), you probably don’t like life in adolescent, 2011 America.

the left wing meme is that huntsan is a general election candidate not a primary candidate.

IOW huntsman is a triangulation deception in order to show republicans as extreme and obama as the middle.

The only people I know that support Huntsman, are semi-moonbat liberals. They claim that he is a ‘moderate’ and for that, they will support him.
