MSM going gaga over Huntsman. How is he any different from Romney? They keep telling us there's no room for both Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin in the primary yet Jon Huntsman and Mitt Romney is no problem. What a bunch of hypocrites.

[muawiyah]

That's Joe ~ and Huntsman is just Romney "lite".

Maybe his daddy is going to buy MSNBC for him or something.

He’s more liberal than Romney.

And he won’t win here in Utah. Romney will win here unless the Huntsman/Romney factions dig in a kill each other (which is possible).

If that happens, Palin will win. She has a lot of support here, despite the fact she isn’t LDS.

[Haiku Guy]

Huntsman is not going anywhere. Folks who really like Romney already have Romney. Why do they need to look elsewhere?

Huntsman will never make it out of the low single digits, no matter how much they plug him. It is a testament to just how low the MSM have sunk that they can pull on that lever all they want, and nobody cares.

[Daisyjane69]

Just keep picturing a presidential debate between Obama and HIS OWN ambassador.

I just took an aspirin.

If Huntsman wins this state in the primary, I will strip naked and walk to SLC without sunscreen.

He makes Romney look like Barry Goldwater.

[cripplecreek]

All I know is that Obama gave ambassadorships to people who helped him win the presidency.

[Ulysse]

French libtard medias began the M.Bachman’s bashing today....and they linked her to S.Palin...OMG !

They didn’t know her name a week ago....and they are following the orders.
It probably means that M.Bachman threatens the libtardland

[Recovering_Democrat]

First of all, Joe Scab-borough wouldn’t know a rank and file Republican if one came up and smacked him upside the head. Second, Huntsman reminds me of Charlie Crist.

[livius]

He’s just another Mormon RINO. I think it’s perceived that Romney may not have much of a chance to get the nomination(despite the bizarre “surveys” they keep presenting), so the press is dropping the mantle on the shoulders of Huntsman now.

[AlphaOneAlpha]

If the all in all left wing media is pushing Huntsman, it is likley that they have determined he is the most beatable of potential Repub candidates.

That Huntsman won't hunt.

[Venturer]

I didn’t see anyone in that debate that I want to vote for.

I think I will write in, I am tired of voting against, by voting for the best of a bad lot.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Huntsman is very wealthy courtesy of his father and has hired the best political strategy and PR firms out there to back his candidacy. What you're seeing in the MSM right now is the fruit of his spending.

Just to be clear---he has NO chance because:

1) He quit--not once but TWICE and for completely selfish reasons---first as governor to kiss Obama's arse and become his Ambassador to China, and then his ambassador's job after he realized that Obama's stock was plunging and that he was about to miss the boat for 2012.

2) He actually thought that the stimulus was not big enough.

3) He has no problem with an individual mandate.

This should tell folks everything they need to know about this loser.

June 15, 2011 Huntsman thought Obama’s stimulus plan wasn’t big enough

Huntsman’s mandate problem gets much worse

[Bringbackthedraft]

Who ever they praise the most is the one they fear the least. Who ever they smear the most is the one they truly fear the most. Don’t let them decide who to run, make your own decision. They don’t spend gobs of money to smear a candidate for no reason. Think about it. Its time to take out the entire current DC structure, vote for someone that has the courage to do it.

[sergeantdave]

“How is he any different from Romney?”

He’s not.

I have a far out theory: Huntsman is a closet Tea Party supporter.

He’s a carbon copy of Romney. His intent is to take votes away from Romney in the primaries and clear the way for a conservative to get nominated.

In every war there are agent provocateurs who infiltrate the other side to spy and cause chaos. They pretend to be strong supporters of the enemy camp while supplying information or undermining the enemy’s position.

We know we have agent provocateurs in our camp. We call them RINOs. It would be logical to assume that there are agent provocateurs from our side causing chaos in the leftist ranks. These people are unknown and unnamed and don’t reveal themselves until after the conflict ends.

[9YearLurker]

The Dems/Establishment have several backup strategies beyond simply backing Obama’s re-election:

1) Support Romney, as the consummate, go-along-to-get-along RINO insider for the GOP side,

2) Have Huntsman or another Establishment option as a backup for Romney’s still being a stiff of a politician,

3) Promote Bachmann to at best deter and at worst split votes from Palin’s entry into the campaign, and

4) Having now bathed The Donald in a faux GOP tea (party), prime him for a GOP vote-splitting Perotesque 3rd party run in the general election.

Thus, they’ll do their best to have Obama win, including supporting another GOP milquetoast for both easy defeat and complete malleability should the milquetoast by some bizarre chance actually win.

You’ve got to give them this: they’re 10X better at cynical political manipulation than anyone on our side.

[FrankR]

If the MSM even makes an innuendo about supporting any "conservative", then run away as fast as you can.

The MSM gave us "mccain" in 2008 - if you remember, he was at the bottom of the pile, and the ACORN bunch cross-voted in the GOP primary and gave us our weakest candidate for president - that's how we got obama.

obama has NO merits on which to run, his entire history has been to destroy, or severely weaken, his opponent.

Huntsman should not even be a consideration, he is an obama plant and is up to no good. He a variation of the registering and voting of "mickey mouse" and assorted dead people by ACORN.

[montag813]

Huntsman is an open-borders, carbon tax assclown.

[montag813]

NONE of these candidiates can beat Obama. Bachmann is angling for VP, and will likely get it. Pawlenty proved he is spineless by refusing to target Romney. It is looking grim, with the flawed Perry wooing Glenn Beck and looking certain to run.

[SECURE AMERICA]

Anyone that votes for any person based on what the media force feeds them is an idiot.
