  • Hippies smell bad. Go away, hippie.
Which begs the question, "What took so long?"

*yawn*

Better bookmark this thread. In a few days you won't even be able to remember who he was.

In a primary season noted for a plethora of "not Romneys," Huntsman stood out as the "not Obongo."

In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

How much will it cost Romney for his endorsement?
Can't be worth much.

You know, the guy probably would have had his chance, if he would have just run on his accomplishments.

Good thing he listened to America's greatest asset in how to win...the army of Poli Sci retards America's universities turn out, qualified to give such advice.

Which reminds me, has Steve Schmidt found employment yet?

Hot Air has the news too, says he will endorse Mittens, which as we all know makes perfect sense since Huntsman people were perhaps the most liberal to start with.

Hope he gives Mittens a big juicy kiss-o-death!

A week or two ago there was a minor kerfuffle when GOP Establishmentarian Dana Perino mildly chastised Huntsman for referring to the US as "screwed" if Obama is re-elected.  I think this highlights just how out of it the GOP beltway types are, because I actually gained a minor bit of respect for Huntsman for coming right out and describing it that way.

But that was about the only positive in his campaign.

What about the concept of screwed doesn't Perino get?  Or is it that she, like the rest of the tone-people, have a vested interest in obfuscating the truth about just how screwed we already are, how much worse if SCoaMF is re-elected? 

Remembering the old-time Catholic "fear" of "shocking the laity", I suggest the "laity" have shocked the living daylights out of Perino et al. with their their plain-speaking at the townhall meetings last year.

I cannot express emphatically enough my contempt for these people.

There was an article, HotAir I think, that said Huntsman talked from
the center and governed from the middle.  Bad plan or bad handlers.

Definition, Politician: Poly from the Greek meaning many and tick meaning blood sucking bug,
hence, Politician = many blood suckers.
