SALT LAKE CITY - (ABC 4 News) - There is one republican presidential candidate that President Barack Obama's campaign manager fears the most in 2012...and his name is Jon Huntsman Jr.
This week for Governor Huntsman, good things are coming in threes.
Not just the fear from the Obama campaign, but also an important phone call and a weekend spent testing the waters in a key primary state.
While no republican presidential candidate yet makes Obama's team "shake in {their} shoes...," President Obama’s campaign manager, David Plouffe, now says Governor Jon Huntsman makes him, a "wee bit queasy...I think he's really out there speaking a lot of truth about the direction of the party."
To which Kirk Jowers of the University of Utah’s Hinckley Institute of Politics says, "Huntsman has positioned himself in a great place right now because he is the only presidential candidate really running in the middle right now."

LOL. Huntsman is a liberal
Please don’t throw me in that briar patch!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA OMG gotta be kidding me right..who, no seriously I’ve never heard of him..WOW, the Obama Administration must really think we are dumber then a bucket of rocks
Alf Landon , Jr.
Based on the incoming fire from their allies in the ObamaMedia, Sarah Palin is, by far, the force the cowardly liars on the left fear the most.
She is The One.
Please, PLEASE don’t throw me into that brier patch!!
Then no one send money to Jon Huntsmen. What am I talking about. The GOP will show they still have their heads up their a&&es and fling every dollar behind the guy Obama SAYS he fears.
We are doomed unless the GOP either goes away or is taken over.
We aren’t, but the Republican Party is.
Let me ‘re’introduce John McCain to you says the mainstreamers.
Hey, it worked to get McCain nominated... with some liberal “independent” crossovers, of course. The only question is whether we’re stupid enough to fall for it twice. My lib friends still tell the lie, “McCain would have won had he not picked Palin” so they must think it will work. Unfortunately for them, I know what McCain’s poll numbers looked like before he picked Palin.
In reality, they are terrified of running against a conservative, because the conservative would win.
Over half of eligible voters don't bother to vote because they don't see a dime's worth of difference between the liberal Democrat and the liberal Republican.
This last election the Democrat News Services, both print and broadcast, had to go “all in” against a left to moderate with a conservative running mate. If conservatives are so easy to beat, why expend capital so dramatically? Me thinks this may be a diversion.
Oh yeah, The middle! That's where it's all muddled up as liberal lite and conservative lite! Yeah, another Romneyesque non-conservative leaping for the mushy middle horse.
I’m sure they’re hoping Olympia Snowe doesn’t decide to run too.
Huntsman was a McCain supporter and is just Romney in disguise if you ask me.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
(take a breath)
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
Absolutely the most stupid, idiotic, ^@&*!(( idea ever!
The dems would LUV to see this Jackass in the running!
I wonder how much Huntsman paid that mewling little weasel Vanocur to write this story?
