Will you be able to vote for a Mormon? I know that will be a hard one for you. Sometimes you just have to hold your nose and vote for the person who has most, but not all, of the things you support. I'm less of a social conservative than you are, so that's not an issue at all for me.

mb, that is a horrible point to have to decide. Probably could not...simply stay out of the voting.
But, I'd want 10 Romney's to be POTUSA....to keep BO OUT. (Ya know what I mean?) I KNOW YOU DO!
I'm an Independent who has vowed to never again vote Republican after the recent behavior of Republicans. However, Huntsman might be the only Republican who could make me break that pledge. He reminds me of the Republican statesmen of days gone by. You know, the ones who honestly cared more for country than party.

If Huntsman wins the GOP nomination, he will get my vote when he runs against Obama.
huntsman would destroy obama. its funny because his economic plan is something elite R's would love and it does flatten rates so baggers would be happy as well.
Goes to show that baggers are not just voting on economics and taxes, which is what they supposedly originally started with.
Why? I'm seriously curious what the problem is with him. Because he served as an ambassador in the Obama administration? Those positions have crossed party lines lots of times in the past, and that's not exactly rolling up your sleeves in the D's domestic issues. It looks like it was a "keep your enemies closer" move by the D's because they know Huntsman could be a real threat in terms of the independent vote, and even some conservative/moderate D's.
I know you know this, but.....anyone who listens to the absurdities the other repub candidates spout off knows why Huntsman doesn't appeal to them.
He's too smart, too sane, too reasonable and too honest. Have those things and you will not be favored by the repubs.

Darn! I wish I hadn't missed that. I am so, so, so committed to Huntsman. I could just kick myself for not watching the debate.
