Republican presidential hopeful Jon Huntsman will announce the endorsement of former U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Gov. Tom Ridge Friday in an event at St. Anselm College in Goffstown.
Ridge, a former governor of Pennsylvania, plans to attend a press conference with Huntsman at the college’s New Hampshire Institute for Politics.
In a statement by the Huntsman campaign, Ridge said Thursday that Huntsman is “a serious, insightful leader.”
Huntsman, 51, a former Utah governor and ambassador to China, said he’ll be counting on Ridge for help and counsel.

Lets see
Immigration - both are all for helping illegals
Healthcare - both are for letting the govt dictate
Taxes - Increase em
Border control - we don’t need no stinkun border
I'm waiting (breathlessly!!!) for McCain's, Arnold's, Susan Collins, Olympia Snowne, and a few other RINOs in the Senator Club (er, Gang of 12)
Well, speaking in terms of percentage growth, going from half a percent to a full one percent is a big gain...
Ridge is a RINO anyway. Hey, what is wrong with Hunter and all his face manipulations? Seems strange.
You were funny, now you’re just being silly.
The people’s view on your absurd statement will prevail.
Huntsman is a mealy mouth pile of sickening mush. Measures every word to fit his pc understandings of how the world works.
His policies aren’t all that bad across the board. All of Ridges’ as PA Governor weren’t bad either. But I wouldn’t give a penny for either one because of their torturous pc parsings of everything.
Huntsman runs around the country spewing that Perry is too extreme right wing.
The people will seperate wheat from chaff.
Good, Romney can lose another 1%. Rino vs Rino is a most as good as Dem vs Dem.
“Huntsman is a mealy mouth pile of sickening mush. Measures every word to fit his pc understandings of how the world works.”
And that differs from Perry how?
I remember those five minutes when some Freepers claimed that Tom Ridge was a conservative.
One liberal endorsing another and both pretending to be conservatives... Brain dead bastards...
You mean like telling Bernanke that printing money would be close to treasonous.
You mean like dissing evolution and global warming.
You mean like writing a book defending Boy Scout values and their right to keep homosexuals out of scouting.
You mean like saying he believes in gun control...hold the gun with both hands.
Those statements and positions are just like Huntsman’s.
LOLOL
Have to say it, pc or not, your remarks are sheer idiocy.
You made the accusations, you put up.
Ridge was in GWB’s cabinet from 2003 to 2005. Most of the undergraduates at St. Anselm probably don’t know who he is.

Huntsman and Ridge are meeting with Sen. Ayotte now.

OMG! Tom Ridge? That is IT, folks. Game OVER. Huntsman has it in the BAG.
Expecting a big bump from the all-important Ridge endorsement! LOL! Does anybody really care what a RINO former governor of Pennsylvania thinks?
Oh, please.
