The behavior by some members of the audience at the most recent Republican presidential debates has at least one campaign staffer concerned about the future of the GOP.
Sarah Reidy, the national director of scheduling for Jon Huntsman's presidential campaign, had some stern words for her own party after the audience at a debate in California applauded the number of executions during Texas Gov. Rick Perry's tenure, and then some in the crowd at a debate in Florida cheered when the moderator asked if a sick person without insurance should be left to die.
In a post on her Facebook page, Reidy, who joined Huntsman's campaign in August but was not speaking on its behalf in this instance, said the behavior made her "sick and sad" for the Republican party.
"For years I have tried to prove that the GOP isn't the Party of elitist, stereotypical people that lack compassion," Reidy wrote on her Facebook account Tuesday. "When did creativity and growth become secondary to hate? Hearing the debate crowds go crazy over things like executions and the uninsured dying makes me sick and sad for my Party that I devote my time and efforts."(continued)

You'll need a fifty pound bag.
Is there any doubt now that Huntsman is a left plant?????? When our pipe-stem armed, girly bike riding, illegal alien POS in our White House says he fears something, we can believe that like we can believe his spouse is not heavy.
I would love to have Cavuto, Hannity, Malkin, and Levin as questioners instead of the predictable lefties.

“For years I have tried to prove that the GOP isn’t the Party of elitist, stereotypical people that lack compassion,*******
Elitist...really? I thought the GOP was loaded with Bible thumping, gun clinging rubes and rednecks who knew nothing about the price of arugula.
I think I’m in the midst of an identity crisis.
She's working for Huntsman now?
Psssst... some of them are here on FR.

Agree.
It's gotta suck being RINO!
I wasn't part of the audience in California but I was certainly cheering and applauding with zeal when the execution count in Texas was mentioned during the debate. How can one not be joyous when murdering vermin are rightfully put to death. From viewpoint, being pro-life means being pro-death penalty.
My only problem is that the appeal process is far too long. Justice must not only be severe for capital crimes but swift. And when Duane Buck (below) rides the proverbial lightning (sure wish we had Ol' Sparky in Huntsville), you can be sure that I'll be cheering for the triumph of Texas justice and the assurance that this filth won't ever murder again.
GOD BLESS TEXAS FOR DOING RIGHT!
Liberalism is a mental disorder...they have no clue what reality looks like, nor understand what is going on around them.
They hear the ‘n’ word when none exists, they think putting an X on an electoral map means you’re going to shoot somebody, they think if you disagree with somebody, you do so because of the color of their skin, they think you can spend more when you could walk on your debt in $100 bills all the way to Pluto, and the biggie is they think YOU are their slave and should work 2-3 jobs to support their every little need...while they spend any money they make on dope, flat screen tv’s, cell phones, used Escalades, and take their food stamp cards to casinos and resorts. And you should do it GLADLY, because it’s the American dream, after all.
That was a planned comment from Huntsman stirring that up. Campaign managers/staffers always choose their words carefully. With Bachmann struggling now, Huntsman wants to get himself set up as the “3rd candidate” besides Romney and Perry.
s/From viewpoint/From a logical viewpoint/Apologies to all since I make a concerted effort to be at least somewhat literate.
Sarah trying to get her boss votes from those who didn't watch the debate.
I am sick whenever I see Huntsman’s face and saddened when I see an “R” next to his name..he should have gotten his ass thrown out of the GOP a long time ago..he makes Romney look Conservative
From those I know who "worked in the business" at various levels, that is BS. Campaign staffs are paranoid about what gets posted on social networking websites. That may not be Huntsman's official comment, but I doubt she would be posting it there if she didn't have the OK.
Since Gov. Sarah Palin is and has been in third place for quite a while, he’ll have more work to do.

This chick clearly hates conservative Republicans. Glad her guy is only pulling 1%.
