I think tactically to the extent Huntsmann splits the RINO moderate vote and shaves down Romney’s lead in these Northern libertine states, is GREAT! We learned four years ago we needed to split the vote base of the media pimped RINO ‘Frontrunner’ at the time: McCain. But we couldn’t.
Perry, Gingrich, and Santorum split the Conservative vote and Paul takes out as least some conservatives. I doubt that Huntsman does attract much in the way of any support. He is there to discredit all of the other candidates and make them look small, petty, and extreme. Axelrod and some other Dems have said that the candidate they feared most was Huntsman. Sound familiar? That is the same crap the MSM fed us about McCain in 2008.
