bummer! the last ounce of sanity gone!

Well it was fun while it lasted. Travel well, only sane one.

good move, Mr. Huntsman!

i’m assuming “with dignity” translates to “don’t want to lose to Colbert in SC”

Well, Mr. Huntsman, I don’t agree with most of your positions, but you earned my respect with your convictions and refusing to act like the rest of the children that make up the GOP field.  Wish ya well.

That should get Romney tens of votes. 

The Crazies within the GOP just made voting for president easy for independents…Republicans are going to be sorry they crucified this guy.

Good riddance.

Where does his 1% nationally go? Or is it divided between the remaining candidates?

the modern GOP won’t accept a sane and intelligent candidate.  the genius of the party is Newt Gingrich, whose reputation for intelligence is based on him being a smartass to debate moderators.

On the plus side, they’re all head and shoulders more intelligent than Obama.

Obama is stupid because he’s on the other team!!!  What an immature stance not based on reality.  

Because an intelligent, articulate diplomat with 2 sons in the military can’t make it in the GOP.

And now the collective IQ of the GOP Candidates has dipped below the Congressional Approval Rating

No, he’s stupid because he thinks there’s 57 states, there’s an intercontinental railroad, his greatest achievement was brought about by policies he was the harshest critic of(Killing Osama), he has argued capitalism has never worked, he can’t give a competent speech without a teleprompter and on and on.

57 states again???… WOW its been 4 years … by the way… Bush couldn’t give a competent speech with a teleprompter…

He said 57 states by mistake when he was talking about how many states he had campaigned in to that point, which was 47. So it’s not hard to figure out the reason for that mistake and that he knows there really isn’t 57 states.  And railing against Bush’s war policies to get elected and then using those same policies to get Osama killed which raised his popularity makes him pretty smart.  And Jefferson was a terrible public speaker, does that make him an idiot?

Eh, when people treat you as a god, you’re held to a higher standard.

Republicans and conservatives really dropped the ball with this one. Huntsman’s fiscal policy and experience contrasted the president’s perfectly and he has experience in foreign affairs that the rest of the GOP field is lacking. Now they are stuck with Romney that has been proven to say whatever he needs to appeal to the electorate he is ruining for. The only thing you can expect from the guy is for him to be drastically inconsistent; spewing lip service and rhetoric every chance he gets. His business experience is in bailing companies out, and his flagship achievement in office is mandated health insurance. All of which are what people take issue with Obama over for good reason, are all too represented with Mitt.

The 47/57 state gaffe is just more proof he can’t speak without someone putting words in his mouth in the form of using a teleprompter.  Never mind that 17 minute rambling of a response he gave to a lady saying she’s overtaxed.  Never mind the constant lapses of loss of words whenever you speaks without a teleprompter.

And railing against the policies that he then utilizes for his greatest successes, while at the same time condemning those policies, most specifically waterboarding, shows he’s a hypocrite and a shyster.

Jefferson didn’t only have speeches to rely on.  He wrote a pretty famous document that Obama ignores on constant basis.

Wow, there’s some real morons in the GOP base to pass up a candidate like Huntsman…

20x more conservative than Romney, and probably even more electable/likable.

With Huntsman out the GOP is going to get what they deserve in Nov.

So sad, Huntsman is the smartest and the best of all the generic’s running for office.

Good riddance. He should’ve dropped out immediately after his embarrassing finish in New Hampshire.

What’s really pathetic about guys like you is you have a Democrat in the White House calling the shots, yet all you do is bitch about Republicans and even your friggin’ avatar is influenced by Republicans because your choice is a huge failure.

Clearly he wasn’t, since his ass is gone.

Where exactly was the teleprompter when Obama addressed the House Republicans at their retreat in Jan 2010?

Yeah, because only the smartest and best candidates survive to the convention, and ultimately get nominated.

I guess Huntsman’s father got tired of financing his losing campaign.

Agreed — with the first part. But the Republicans didn’t crucify Huntsman; they just ignored him.

Everyone has an off day.

Huntsman’s a shit-for-brains who’s never accomplished anything in his life. Ambassadorships are government-paid vacations. He got bad grades in college in a throw-away major and he couldn’t cut it in the private sector in his daddy’s business.

The people saw through his bullshit and he lost in the marketplace. He wants to leave with dignity, but that’s long gone.

awwww poor poor bagger

And there you go again, bitching about Republicans.

How much does it suck being you? It’s gotta be a whole lot.

Ignored? Not quite. As soon as he entered the race, Rush Limbaugh savaged Huntsman as a RINO who’s unqualified because he served under Obama. Then, many other “conservatives” on radio attacked Huntsman for supporting gay and lesbian civil unions, despite Limbaugh sharing the same position.

Huntsman’s record was always looked upon by ignorant Republicans as being moderate because’s Huntsman’s style and mannerisms are moderate. His record, though, was as conservative as anyone else’s.

Yeah, turning Utah into the best-managed, most job-creating State and replacing the progressive tax with a flat tax really isn’t an accomplishment, right?

Yeah, and he didn’t do any of those things.

Politicians don’t create jobs; like the spoiled rich kid that he’s always been he’s taking credit for something he didn’t do.

And governors don’t levy taxes, state legislatures do. He did not replace any tax system since that would violate the state constitution.

rinse repeat

he was only “sane” to far left loons like yourself which is why he never got over 3%.

All he had to do to get higher numbers by the party was to deny science, tell us how Jesus was his savior and how he would base his policies on the bible, question Obama’s birth certificate, call Obama a Muslim/Kenyan/Commie worry about who you sleep with in the privacy of your own home, and insult gay soldiers in the military.  What a loser.

you dont win consevrative heart and minds by insulting them when you are forming your first impressions. 
Glenn beck is a huge fan of Huntsmans father.  If Jon had a clue on how to run a campaign he should have went after beck for his support. 

HA! You moderators at Mediate are absolutely pathetic, removing comments that don’t conform to the agenda that you’re trying to push.

I’ll just post ‘em again, suckers.

Yawn…

obama constantly makes mistakes but youll never know it from MSNBC
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjO8Qc5s1fY

You believe things that are not true. Work on that.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjO8Qc5s1fY  more obama mistakes

Did you know Obama’s a Christian? That makes him a “science denier,” right?

I bet today Ronald Reagan would never the GOP nomination, he was from that liberal California after all (and even an actor).

Can you imagine Regan having to whine about the media asking him “gotcha questions”, he’d never stoop so low. :p

I assume I don’t have to show you the 57 state gaffe, same with the OBL kill.

Obama can’t give a competent speech without a teleprompter http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2010/04/obamas-17-minute-2500-word-res.html

Yeah, I like how none of that’s true.

You are either a liar of bad with distinction.
Your initial comment indicated a problem of understanding (57 states & intercontinental). Your next post switched to “gaffe” which is a mistake. Either way, unforgivable error in the age of information. The telepromter is a tool Obama uses to battle his own complicated understanding… Not a means to add complication to limited understanding. I hope you are a simple liar. I hate to think that an adult could be so dull.

(edit: nearly forgot… Trickle down is capitalism?

LOL. If only… it would be so great

The short answer is yes. However based on what I have read about him and what he has said he seems to be more of a deist (even if he would argue that point) and does not take the book literally, as do most of the republican candidates. Additionally, I’m not a rabid Obama fan, but with what the Republican Party has put forward this cycle where do you go?  There is a difference between someone having faith in a god and someone that will base their foreign policy regarding Israel on the bible.  We live in a world where ~80% of the population believe in a deity, there is no getting around that, but the extremist are killing the Republican Party  I don’t care how many wives someone had, who they sleep with, if they use contraceptives what god they pray, or what your sexuality is if you are in the military, something too many of these republicans are obsessed with. 

I would have loved to have a choice between Obama and someone with conservative principles, not a Christian fundamentalist pretending to be conservative.  If the argument is
spending, military adventurism, getting into wars for the sake of feeling tough, corruption in government, dealing with the insurance and medical care, the complete failure of the education in this country, including the unions part in the failure, and the not just bad mouthing it to win votes, I could get behind someone else.  What we have running for president on the republican ticket is a bunch of posers who seem to hate the government and sex not condoned in the bible; I think I’ll take a pass.

Denying climate change is not a solution to an issue that 90% of the scientists in the field believe is happening is not a position,
it is head in the sand and that is what these folks bring to the table.  Some of them once had a more nuanced position
on the subject, but were beaten back by the mob to outright deny it.  Not profiles in courage.

Somebody Call the Whaaaaambulance

Those who supported Huntsman will now switch to Romney. Even Huntsman will endorse Romney. Ron Paul will get nothing from this. He is maxed out now.

The currently ultra conservative Republican party was not ready for Huntsman this time, so they are stuck with the next best thing for Republicans, Romney.

Prediction: Romney loses to Obama and gets tired of trying. Huntsman uses the experience of this run (he was only practicing) and runs against the as yet undetermined Democrat in 2016. Next time, Romney will be endorsing Huntsman.

Reply to myself:
You fool! Republicans will not regain the sanity they once had.

Try this on for size, Obama beats Romany, Economy recovers unemployment drops to 7.8%, Iraq-Afghanistan missions are completed, Iran is contained through force, Peace with the Taliban, Token amount of troops brought home from Europe, No terrorist attacks going into 2015, Hillary Clinton announces a presidential exploratory committee and wheres that leave the republicans for eight more years? In the wilderness Because it was more fun to hate on the only guy that could of stopped Obama in 2012.
Personally and this is just me. I’m a die Hard Democrat but I like to keep my options open and Huntsman was the only thing that the Republicans had going for them that I could work with. So who am i suppose to root for now? And brother you can bet there’s a lot of independents who vote in the general election asking the same question tonight.

I like it, but it is way too optimistic as far as 2016 is concerned. I do not expect Hillary Clinton to do anything but retire from all political offices at the end of this term, and the Democrats will have to find a new leader who could replace Obama within a year of his re-election to have a good shot at having a third Democrat presidential term in a row.
I will settle for the Dems retaking the House and keeping the Senate from 2014 to 2016.

what makes him more sane than Romney?

The results of the house and senate races go without saying, Clinton running is like 3to1.

I just cannot be quite as optimistic as you are. I wish I were.

People lied to him by making him think Obama sent him to China to avoid his crushing charisma and ornamented resume in a 2012 face off

endorsing Romney would be the worst thing he could do for his reputation

based on what?

that they are both Mormon?

going for Beck’s support certainly would have punched is loony card.

but it wouldn’t have gotten him many votes

Beck is a Mormon, so I guess that would have been the basis of his theoretical endorsement?

you’re arguing with silly people, Tyler

it’s not hard to do, it just gets exhausting weeding through all the ignorance, doesn’t isn’t?

Well, ya never know until ya try.
That being said there are some things you should never try. Like swimming non-stop accoss the Pacific.

The telepromter is a tool Obama uses to battle his own complicated understanding…

Ah, the old “He’s so smart his mouth can’t keep up with his brain!” defense. Hilarious.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4-AKcH3eC8

Are they both going to flock to Paul? Are you sure?

It’s a shame, he and Buddy Roemer seem to be the only ones in the Republican field who aren’t entirely awful. Still, I suppose there’s 2016 for him, but by that time I fear he may be Romney’d by his advisors, convinced to abandon every previously held position that made him appealing to people toward the centre of the political spectrum to try to appeal to the same people as Bachmann or Santorum.

Never can get enough of that 57 state thing.  Why don’t you at least try to find something new?

The rest of your statement is just made up stupid stuff.  What is really amusing is watching someone like Sean Hannity tell a lame teleprompter joke that he is reading . . . from a teleprompter.

As Iiberal, I probably would never have voted for Huntsman in a general election. His positions on tax policy, the Ryan plan, school vouchers, etc are too far right for me….but he has something that the others lacked:  

***I was willing to listen to him and hear out his ideas.  

Huntsman is part of a dying breed of Republicans who doesn’t pander to anti-intellectualism, cultural warfare, and the religious right…..and he’s not constantly attacking my patriotism or comparing my side to Stalin. 

Sure, to some Republicans today, that makes him a “RINO”….but consider this, Republicans:  

-If he can get liberals like me to at least hear him out, doesn’t he stand a chance of picking at least a few of us off?   

Ultimately, Huntsman’s differences with today’s GOP are stylistic rather than substantive.

Today’s politics are nothing more than identity politics.

You can’t run a campaign about ideas in an era of identity politics.

There’s the 17 minute rambling response.  There’s the time he thought he was the 4th best President ever.  There’s the time he thought capitalism never worked.  There’s the time he thought that he could intimidate a general into forcing him to say that LightSquared worked.  There’s the time he said Jerusalem should remain the undivided capital of Israel, then the very next day he came out and said he didn’t mean that. And on and on and on.

If Sheik O is a Christian as he proclaims, then that would make him an apostate. Just sayin….

Your post is the most confusing excuse for supporting Sheik Obama, and its your vote, the Indedependent in that will come out of the closet to support the apostate on election day. Your post is clear as mud, the complete justification as to why you supported the Obama in the past and why you will support is excellency in the future. And that my friends is exactly why Romney cannot defeat our current occupier. 

Huntsman is a closet liberal, so is Ron Paul. Huntsman supports queer marriage and civil unions, as does Ron Paul, and Paul supports a do nothing national defense. Hmmm, thats very liberal view points. Denial isnt an excuse to accept a liberal posing as a republican party just becuase our party is split so terribly.

Yes, indeed. Newt is the best candidate to argue against the sitting occupier of the white house (OWH).  Newt will expose the Sheik in debate.

And your post is exactly why we dont need a liberal poser like Huntsman in our ranks. Yea, you can keep him inUtah, let him assist Sheik Obama in any capacity that he likes. But, ambiguity in the republican ranks is at its highest, and we need clarity among conservatives, not center moving candidates and posers like Romney, Huntsman, and the kook Ron Paul.

Yea, dissention in the ranks, and then you woke up to the current reality of a 16 trillion dollar debt, unemployment still producing big numbers reporting for handouts from the govt, and our inability to wage war on two fronts is now a direct threat to our national defense. Thank you Sheik Obama for clarity and leadership. blah blah blah

That’s an easy one.

He’s not a pandering schmuck like Romney.

He’s not a religious fanatic like Santorum.

He’s not a bomb thrower like Gingrich.

He’s not a loose cannon like Paul.

He’s not an brainless hick like Perry.

This is a shame. He gave the GOP a real choice.

He isn’t a craven panderer like Romney.

He’s not a religious fanatic like Santorum.

He’s not a bomb thrower like Gingrich.

He’s not a loose cannon like Paul.

He’s not an brainless hick like Perry.

What your post reveals is how far to the extreme right the conservative movement has drifted that totally sane positions — like supporting marriage equality — are now considered antithetical to the cause. What could be more in keeping with the spirit of personal responsibility and limited government — something conservatives claim to believe — than allowing two consenting adults to make this important choice for themselves about whom to marry without government telling them they cant?

This is exactly why I no longer consider myself a conservative. It’s a movement that’s been hijacked by religious yahoos bent on turning the country into a Christian theocracy.

Why would they go to Romney? Huntsman’s few, miniscule supporters backed him because they didn’t want to back Romney.

Perry, Gingrich, Romney — more intelligent than Obama?

You really don’t have a clue, do you?

Yet Dr. Ron Paul had his bigger finish ever in Iowa, beats all of the polls in New Hampshire by 5 to 6 points, and is surging in South Carolina.

So how is Huntsman a “poser”?   I mean, look at his record….it’s as conservative as any of them.  Where exactly has he taken a position that some other Republican hasn’t also taken?

What, for you?

I’m laughing at you because you’re so pathetic.

I tell you what…keep your “clarity”.  

Ask Joe Miller, Christine O’Donnell, and Ken Buck how their “clarity” worked out for them.

Personally, I love it when Republicans have purity tests because it means that the center is available for the Democrats to pick up and win the election.  

The US may not be a “liberal” country….but neither is it as conservative as many on your side want to believe.

 RP has no momentum going into SC so no made surges will be required

We need more big brother hate speech here for psychological operations

you tell em big brother handle

Are you reading straight from WND?

Well…
Perry – the economy he’s running seems to be doing great.  Here’s a full write up on it, explaining the numbers and all http://www.politicalmathblog.com/?p=1590

Gingrich – Uh, he is smarter.  The guy’s arrogant, I don’t care for him, but he’s smarter and he sure has a long list of bipartisan agreements with Clinton to prove it.

Romney – As far as I can tell, Obama had to look to him for Obamacare, so that wasn’t original(I’m not supporting Romneycare at all, but Obama’s ideas don’t come out of thin air.  He’s not that smart).

So, is this the part where I ask: “You don’t really have a clue, do you?”

That must be it… 
http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/obama-attacks-republican-economic-theory-its-never-worked/2011/12/06/gIQAx1EJaO_print.html

Unlike Santorum, Gingrich, Bachmann, Perry, et al, Obama has never pandered to Christians by making his faith the centerpiece of his appeal.

He did the only thing that he could now – and still save face.  He is out of money and voters.  While not burning bridges – he can now hold his head up high and come back another day.

As long as Newt doesent expose himself!!!

Here is a breakdown of your Perry numbers.

81% of Jobs Created in Texas Since 2007 Went to Immigrants
Of newly arrived immigrants who took a job in Texas, 93 percent were not U.S. citizens.
So almost half of all the “Texas Miracle” jobs went to undocumented immigrants.

You must be stuck on stupid 
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/post/romneys-problematic-claims-about-illegal-immigration-in-texas/2011/10/22/gIQAjCfg6L_blog.html

His parting speech is funny but not “ha ha” funny.

Another one bites the dust…

…Shame!

Will this, however, give Huntsman some name recognition for the next time?!?

I understand completely. I hope it works out for you.

You’re too optimistic. I think it’s going to take several more election cycles for the GOP to purge itself of the Limbaugh/Teabilly/Beck/Coulter/Bachmann virus.

Gonna miss the Huntman girls

No. But his daughters have careers in fashion (if they don’t already)

Absolutely agree that the GOP will continue to purge itself long after this election. The irony is they are playing to an aging and xenophobic audience.

Huntsman has the ability to appeal beyond that, but perhaps the reality of the Presidential Joke Candidates surpasses him…

…Another reality show in the making with Kardashians guest starring.

Yes. I am am a far left loon.

Insightful as always.

It has.

One liberal endorsing another…nothing new to this story!

Ron Paul is not even bothering to campaign in SC.  He knows he isn’t going to get many vote there.  He won’t do much anywhere that liberals cannot cross party lines and vote for him as they did in Iowa and New Hamshire.

Dr. Paul gained some when the supporters of Palin had to find a new candidate, and when the supporters of Bachmann had to find a new candidate, and when supporters of Pawlenty had to find a new candidate, but  others who supported those candidates are now so disillusioned that they are thinking of “sitting this one out.”

He may pick up a few more when Gingrich drops out and when Perry drops out, but much of his “gain” is the result of there being fewer other candidates to split the primary and caucus votes with. The only way Dr. Paul can win the nomination is if Romney drops out.

Meanwhile, the few voters who supported Huntsman will see Romney as the only acceptable alternative. Every one who would have voted for Huntsman will vote for Romney.

Or a socialist like Obama.

I read your link in the reply to WiddleBabyDanielson below. The study does prove that the majority of new jobs in Texas did go to immigrants. Whether those jobs went to illegal immigrants or not is not really important to those who oppose all immigration on the grounds that jobs should go to American citizens.

The South Carolina results will knock both Perry and Santorum out of the race. Both will recognize that if they can’t do well there, they can’t do well anywhere.

Only Romney and Paul have strong organizations in all states.

Then it is down to Romney, Gingrich, and Paul. Gingrich drops out on Feb 5th, right after the Florida results are in. Paul will hold on right up to the Convention, even though there will be a point when Romney has it sewed up long before that. Paul will resist the urge of his followers to form a third party, but he will never endorse anybody else.

The whole thing will be determined by Feb 5th, when the Florida results are in. Within a week of that, the Republicans will be able to form a solid front against Obama. You conservatives should make use of that time to campaign against Obama instead of against each other.

That was my belief all along. Huntsman was getting name recognition and practice for the next time.

We get the ideas. Santorum is running for Pope of the US. “We are not an economic enterprise, we are a moral enterprise.”

Gingrich is not a “true conservative.” Many of his ideas involve greater government participation, not less, and we know his ego is far bigger than his sense of personal morality. Listen to Gingrich on specifics, and he is the one guy who says what government can do for you. Gingrich even attacked Romney for how Romney is too much a capitalist! That should put him in the Democrat party.

Perry has no knowledge of foreign affairs or economics, and doesn’t even know which government organizations do what. He only knows that demand for smaller government and frequent mention of God gets votes.

Paul is respected by all for his steadfast beliefs, but won’t get some votes because he says open our borders to all people and all trade and stop supporting Israel, but lose those votes because he says we must abolish the Federal Reserve and return to a Gold Standard. That is economic nonsense that appeals to the paranoid.

The others, except for Romney have dropped out already. Conservatives still call him a flip-flopper. Too bad, because maybe you should see flip-flopping as changing direction with the times, circumstances, and the will of the people.

Oops. That does not reflect well on CONSERVATIVE ideology. Romney isn’t a dinosaur, so he does not qualify as a Republican?

The others, except for Romney, have dropped out already. Conservatives still call him a flip-flopper. Too bad, because maybe you should see flip-flopping as changing direction with the times, circumstances, and the will of the people.

Oops. That does not reflect well on CONSERVATIVE ideology. Romney isn’t a dinosaur, so he does not qualify as a Republican?

We get the ideas. Santorum is running for Pope of the US. “We are not an economic enterprise, we are a moral enterprise.” “First we fix our morals, then the economy fixes itself.”

Gingrich is not a “true conservative.” Many of his ideas involve greater government participation, not less, and we know his ego is far bigger than his sense of personal morality. Listen to Gingrich on specifics, and he is the one guy who says what government can do for you. Gingrich even attacked Romney for how Romney is too much a capitalist! That should put him in the Democrat party.

Perry has no knowledge of foreign affairs or economics, and doesn’t even know which government organizations do what. He only knows that demand for smaller government and frequent mention of God gets votes.

Oh I absolutely agree with you! We have lost our way, and Im not a thumper necessarily but we will answer for our backsliding. lol. Anyway, I would like more solid conservatives as my choice of candidate for President, but, I am for the strongest candidate that can argue against the likes of the current occupier. That would be Newt Gingrich in my view. The occupier is on a path to create wide gaps in race relations, pure class warfare, and attempting to show the left that his eminence is the way forward by redifining our national identity into socialism. I will never accept that model, nor will the majority of great Americans. Unfortunately the Apostate’s message resonates with the Independents, and so called “moderates” that Romney is appealing to as he campaigns. I would say, that is the clear warning sign of a poser Republican. This is why we fight Romney being shoveled down our throats. I dont hate the left, I dont dislike Sheik Obama, I just dont want him or his ilk changing the US footprint to a Euro lifestyle. Thats not the flag I will ever salute.

I use the term Sheik, (Sheikh), out of respect for our Sunni occupier. Im not using the name to belittle, badger, or offend, but to elevate his eminence the status as an Islamic man that has risen to the highest orafice in our land. 
 
Now you can ask me why I would suggest that Sheik Obama is a Sunni? Fair.  One can only look at his two Muslim dads, and screen the registrar’s office at the madrassa in Jakarta in the 60′s. Obama was indeed registered as a Sunni then, and you must understand the truth of it. I dont blame him, or hold him accountable to his supervised islamic schooling.
 
Now, If Sheik Obama is a convert from Islam, and claims Christianity as he has so publicly, then he becomes an apostate under Islamic law. I didnt make that up, it is what it is. Of course there is only one other possibility, that the apostate, or sunni, utilizes Taqiyya to hide the muslim cult religion that he supports via the great lie. 
 
Don’t be a hater, be informed. Make your case, or stop trying to reinvent history.

I love overt lies from stupid people when confronted with the truth. Your entire post is nothing but a worthless lie.

Dr. Ron Paul is campaigning very actively in South Carolina and his polls numbers are increasing as a result. His recent money bomb — because Dr. Paul gets his money from donations from individuals rather than hosting big donor $50K plate fundraisers like Mitt Romney — raised so much money he was able to buy more time in South Carolina than the campaign originally anticipated.

You’re also lying when you say that Democrats and Independents can’t vote in the South Carolina primary. If you’d actually done any research instead of taking the false words of Fox News on this one, you would’ve found out that voters do no register with a party in South Carolina — ANY registered voter in South Carolina can vote in the GOP primary. A simple Google search would’ve yield the truth, which you were too lazy to do: http://www.wyff4.com/r/30224932/detail.html

Huntsman is way more conservative than Mitt Romney, his voters will most likely turn to Dr. Ron Paul. Huntsman’s support was consistently low because he was in general a smug dick.

And thinking that conservatives and libertarians are now going to “sit this one out” because the GOP is actually vetting candidates unlike the Democrats in 2008 is just plain absurd. You’ve already been proven wrong in Iowa and New Hampshire where voter turnout was just as strong as it was in 2008.

I just watched as much as I could of today’s debates. Paul got booed a lot, especially when he talked about not killing terrorists and such. He will not do well in the primary in SC.

According the college friends of my youngest son, those who are crossing party lines to vote for RP are simply trying to ensure that he is the GOP nominee because they believe RP would lose by 48-50 states against Obama and that would give Obama a massive mandate to finish up his plans for America.  The simple fact is that RP has NOT been campaigning very hard in SC.  He has taken at least three days off to spend time with his family, he has campaigned in Nevada, even earning the endorsement of the Prostitutes at the Moonlite Bunny Ranch.  The man has no hope at all of winning the GOP nomination, but unlike others I don’t care whether he drops out or not…the more we see of him the more nutty he looks.  Last night he was particularly off his game, looked exhausted and sounded confused.  Guess he should have taken a few more days to rest with his family before returning to the campaign trail.  This not to insult him in any way, but his advanced age was definitely showing last night and I really am concerned that the rigors this campaign are hurting him.  He seems like a very nice old guy, but presidential?  Definitely not!
