Huntsman? Lordy!

Has anyone verified his party affiliation? I swear the guy sounds like a bleeding heart liberal every time I hear him.

He sounded in debate like a "competence liberal": "All liberals are competent, and all competent people are liberal. Conservatism is a guarantee of defectiveness."

But the significant fact here is that he's splitting Mittens's vote. Hmmmm.

Hunstman is an idiot. While talking about Afghanistan he said something to the effect that, "The Commander in Chief listened to the leaders on the ground in Viet Nam in '67 and look where that got us." He was trying to point out that the president, as CinC, doesn't have to listen to the commanders in Afghanistan, Pakistan, etc. to decide what to do there.

So how do you Explain Gov. Huntsman’s Conservative record? Working under Reagan, Bush I and Bush II. 100 % rating with NRA and 100 pro life rating. Cut taxes in Utah to historic lows, balanced the budget, top job creator, eliminated loopholes and burdensome regulations, best managed state and most business friendly. Still no different than Romney ? Now without your baseless rhetoric how do you explain all that away?

yeah, he definitely is a liberal on some issues (not all), but at least he’s honest about it...unlike Mitt. If the real mitt said his ‘positions’ then we wouldn’t even see him polling 10% nationally.
