Huntsman is going to be a very valuable asset within an administration, but he has ZERO charisma. He just cannot get any traction.

Unfortunately, Huntsman will not be on the final ticket. I think he would have been a reasonable choice.

Geeeezzzz --- a :rainbo: :rainbo: :rainbo: of Dwellars ! But I've been scanning the news looking for what Huntsman is saying or doing in his campaign. Most articles that even mention him deal with the R-candidates' debate in Nevada, which he skipped. I found one article that talked about Huntsman, Perry, and Romney being more (statistically) likely to achieve the presidency because they are former governors... that way they no longer have to explain current problems in their state Has anyone seen substantive articles about Huntsman or his campaign ? . |
Aside from seeing him speak and his past, he has been completely ignored by the media - all of it.
|
CNN is reporting today his campaign is going broke.

Now a another bit about Perry...
NY Times By RICHARD A. OPPEL Jr. Published: October 14, 2011 Perry Presents a Jobs and Energy Proposal With an Oil and Gas Industry Sound Quote:
[Perry] made questionable assertions, including one — that the E.P.A. had never found a case of unsafe hydraulic fracturing of natural gas — that was plainly false Environmental Working Group August 3, 2011 Quote:

The worst thing you can find about Romney is that when traveling he puts his dog on the top of the car. The nest worst thing is that he is like a stone --- in stone soup. |
Herman Cain is making the news circuits and being asked about his campaign finances and support.
Cain has not yet mentioned the Koch brothers or Americans for Prosperity. Here's some background... Washington Post By Associated Press, Sunday, October*16, 6:54*AM Herman Cain’s deep ties to Koch brothers key to campaign Quote:
When asked on Meet The Press for a difference between himself and Romney, Cain responded: "... He's a Wall Street candidate, I'm more of a Main Street candidate." Cain was on the Board of Directors from 1992, and was Chairman of the Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank from 1995 to 1996. He later opposed a call for an audit of the Fed, which he now denies . |
Cain is a painful distraction. I don't see him as a viable candidate at all.
He sure seems to be a media created sensation all because of a catch-phrase. I wonder why they are giving him so much attention. |
Media coverage so far is superficial, only the 999 catch phase for taxes,
but nothing about the implications or Cain's longer visions. Just the sort of things that get votes. |
I've seen a little about Huntsman now. Best R I've seen yet in the current smorgasbord. Apart from being named after a spider, his main problem is the catch-22 of current republican party machinations, to wit:
Anyone centrist enough to be a plausible candidate in the general election is not extreme enough to get endorsed by the party. |
There's an op ed in the NY Times calling his candidacy essentially over, just the wrong time for sensible...
|
That really suxors. I think he'd be a great VP choice.
To me, it looks like Romney will get the nod. Romney/Huntsman would be interesting, to say the least. |
