He was once considered a rising star in the GOP. But after taking a position in the Obama administration, his name has mostly disappeared from the GOP’s lexicon. Now, however, former Utah governor Jon Huntsman, Jr. is changing that as he begins hinting at a possible 2012 presidential run.
Yeah I’m sure the millions of tea party voters will trust this mole for Obama. It’s time to separate the Rinos from the conservatives once and for all. If you work for Obama you need not apply. The media is gonna push this guy like crazy.
Anybody who was Obama’s anything better forget about it.
Yeah! That’s the ticket! Nominate some braindead Obamanoid that no one has ever heard of. It worked for the Commie’RATS in 2008 but I don’t think We the People are going to fall for it. Look where electing a nobody from Chicago/Hawaii/Indonesia/Kenya has gotten us.
This guy isn’t even a RINO. He’s simply a nobody.
I hope he runs......he’s bound to split the RINO votes - Mitt,Newt and somewhat of Pawlenty heh!
You left out the Huckster.
He is the worst nightmare. Folks in my family that supported this trash now claim they never supported him. I do not associate with hippocracy.
No. He is not his father. He is a RINO. No more RINOs.
I don’t think Huck is going to run, some say his wife wants out of the political run and wants to enjoy life in retirement
Uh....
NO
He was booed when his name was mentioned at the exact same Tea Party gathering that resulted in Bob Bennett getting handed his ass.
I’m in S. Utah, btw.
Well NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
No
It was a different political world in early 2009 when Obama, fearing that Huntsman was the kind of Frum- Republican that would be politically threatening to him, preemptively got him out of the country. If Huntsman thinks he has a chance, he’s frozen in February ‘09.
Huntsman, a tall, lean man with silver hair and impeccable posture, pauses only briefly when faced with the question of presidential aspirations. “You know, I’m really focused on what we’re doing in our current position,” he says. “But we won’t do this forever, and I think we may have one final run left in our bones.”
We are not impressed with this Obama cabana boy.
Huck is not going to run. About to sign new mega deal with Fox that will keep him out of the race. He’s had to make a choice between the deal and running and those close to him say he’s taking the deal. Romney has downsized his campaign to skeleton crew. I think Palin is running these guys out of the race. Internal polls must look great for Palin and terrible for anyone else.
NO! and NOOOOONNNONO!!!
If your last name is not Palin and you come from a single digit EV state, you are not getting the GOP nomination in 2012.
He’s being sent to run against Sarah Palin?
