Interesting that the Obama voters have been far more perplexed over the Republican candidates for the last year than have the likely Republican voters


Bry...you probably nailed it...he needed to be more hateful to garner anything over 3.2% natonally as a Republican

“The people that he’s getting his only real levels of support from are self-identified Democrats who are registered undeclared . . . [and] self-identified liberals,” says Andrew Smith, director of the University of New Hampshire’s Survey Center. “I don’t think he’s pulling much from Romney.”

maybe he's nuts?

Huntsman spokesman Tim Miller said the former ambassador to China and Utah Governor was “proud of the race that he ran” but “did not want to stand in the way” of rival Mitt Romney, the current front-runner for the Republican nomination.

proud of 3.2%(last) and now maybe his "satisfied with Obama" liberals will vote for Mitt?

or....maybe Daddy shut him off

"A Huntsman source said it was unclear whether the former Huntsman’s billionaire father had been willing to pour more funds into a super PAC backing his candidacy but that the campaign had run out of cash."RCP



his spending record and growth of government as governor, attitudes on healthcare, tarp, bailouts, the stimulus and cap and trade and toward the Republican base in general were all going against the grain in this cycle and it is clearly reflected in his results....do you need more?
