Quote of the Day

"I think Huntsman would have been a very tough general election candidate. He's a good guy. We looked at his profile in a general election and thought he would have been difficult."

-- Obama campaign manager Jim Messina, in an interview with Politico, saying Jon Huntsman would have been the toughest Republican challenger in the 2012 presidential race.

"Your chief political adviser has been quoted very prominently as describing the Republican Party as 'a bunch of cranks,' and said your opponents on the stage 'make a buffet of crazy and inane comments.' I'm sure that's insulting to some of these people up here," moderator John Harris said to John Huntsman. "Who on this stage is anti-science?"

Huntsman had no chance because he wasn't extreme enough for the loonies in the GOP!

Huntsman is the only "R" I've voted for without holding my nose. He did some good things here. Unfortunately, after he became the ambassador to China, his lieutenant governor managed to undo most of the good stuff he did.

Obama won you fool and I actively campaigned for him! Even went to a neighborhood team meeting! All those Dems were very nice and treated me great! We are still savoring the sweet taste of victory after so many Repukes said Romney would win in a landslide!

Incredible. You're too stupid to be allowed an internet connection. You make Tym look like a chemistry grad.

RATTrules is a uniter! All points on the poltical spectrum agree they are a fucking idiot.

Huntsman seems okay...I'd have to look deeper, but he seems moderate (as those things go in the GOP these days).

I probably would have voted for him and I know a few moderates-leaning-liberal who felt the same. I think the republican problem is that their answer is to get more extreme, much like a child deciding the right thing to do to get the ice cream is to kick up the tantrum a notch or three.

I don't expect them to change that stance any time soon.
