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.

Huntsman is Obama’s errand boy and boot licker.

He has little chance of breaking ten percent in any opinion polls . . .

Methinks you are overestimating his potential by a factor of 10. Maybe only 5 if you corral the idies and crossover dems who want to disrupt the process.

His only compelling skill is that he speaks fluent Mandarin, so he can negotiate a better price selling us out.

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.

That's funny, my perception has been 180 degrees different then yours.

My perception is the high-school behavior is more prevalent in those that like to call Palin supporters Palinista's or cult members and applaud any negative post about Governor Palin, not the other way around.

“McCain without the Military Service.”
And I think McCain's military service was a deciding factor in the 2008 primary. Without that, he would have been a nowhere man.

If you think that is a “pro-Romney” tagline, then you need to get your alleged brain checked out.

I have been noticing for several weeks now, drama queens on the Pro-Sarah side (to be honest, I am neither a worshipper nor a detractor) that cannot handle NOT just people that do not feel as strongly about Palin as they do, but these people lose their alleged minds at the slightest HINT that someone else might have the audacity to DARE support an actual DECLARED candidate that is NOT named Palin.

These supporters have lost all common sense and basically hang out looking for threads supporting non-Palin candidates at whom to fling their poo.

I stand corrected, it’s not high school; it’s the friggin’ monkey house at the local zoo.

Every vote for Huntsman takes away from Romney.

Talk him up.

or some yet to be named true conservative candidate.

The best bet is to ignore huntsmas as he drains money from real candidates who may enter the race.

(in the end huntsman endorses obama and the MSM will suck the media airtime away from any republican)

Agree heartily. He can pull support from Romney in states that mittens will absolutely need to win the nomination. Run Jon Run!
