Read his own issues, page. There is nothing even remotely “conservative” about Huntsman

The only way you can see Huntsman as “conservative” is if you change the definition of “conservative” to mean Democrat Lite RINO.

Except of course, that is not the case. I know Huntsman’s positions very well. You can mistrust him for working for Obama if you wish, if you don’t like his stance on evolution and climate change, that’s fine too. These are legitimate reasons for concern, but you can’t genuinely say there is nothing at all conservative about the guy, and keep a straight face, surely?

Isn’t being so consistently pro-life and pro-gun, conservative?

Isn’t having a record as a tax-cutter as governor of one of the most conservative states in the nation, a little touch of conservatism?

Surely supporting the Ryan Plan is something that a conservative would recognise?

What about school vouchers in Utah?

There is actually a reasonable case to put forward that Huntsman is the most electable conservative candidate in this election. Certainly more conservative than Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich.

Perhaps you don’t agree with him. That’s fine. But, my goodness, how far have we gone astray, how small to we want this party to be, if someone with such a conservative record on most issues like Jon Huntsman is dismissed as a ‘Democrat Lite RINO’?

Can you REALLY not see any conservatism in his record and positions, at all?

Which of his positions on his site are non-conservative? Most seem fine.
