bla i wanted to see him stay through south carolina at least.

What is a Jon Huntsman?
 
2012-01-15 10:19:45 PM
Damn right, I'm disappointed.

/ And Canadian, so it doesn't even translate into a vote.

I guess seeing himself getting beat by Colbert in the polls, he decided now is the time to quit.

That's a shame. He was one of the more sane ones too.

Thank goodness. Only guy in the race that gave me the willies. Responsible? Intelligent? Reasonable? Bah humbug. Bring on the crazy for that loss.

All of the rational Republicans are gone. Now it will be a race between Obama and batshiat insanity.
 
2012-01-15 10:21:30 PM
Who?
 
2012-01-15 10:21:58 PM
Well, damn. I know he had no chance at getting the nomination, but still. I'd have liked to see him in a few more debates, if only to make everyone else on stage look even dumber than they actually are.

Fair winds and following seas, Mr. Huntsman. I hope you don't decide to run in 2016, because by then, we might actually be afraid of you.
 
2012-01-15 10:22:00 PM
I'm disappointed. His daughters are farking hot!
 
2012-01-15 10:22:04 PM
Damn it, I'm already signed up to attend the next debate. Now one of the two guys worth hearing isn't going to be there.

Ideally, all of the candidates should be considered "sane". Sadly, this is rarely the case.

Subby sounds relieved that the only Republican who could beat Obama is gone. Dems in 2016, you have been warned, Huntsman will be back with a vengence
 
2012-01-15 10:22:21 PM
Huntsman for Vice President? Or will Romney follow McCain and choose an idiot as his running mate?

Well, maybe his daughters will do well on the national screeching head television shows. They're blond, right? And white? And female? And pretty? And Republican? Check, check, check, check and check!

But not screechy? Well, that can be taught.

Someone say huntsman?

Given that his support in the polls was typically below the margin of error, that is not an inaccurate headline.

Mrtraveler01: That's a shame. He was one of the more sane ones too.

Hence why he probably would have lost to a Chick-Fil-A cashier in SC.
 
2012-01-15 10:23:11 PM
And now to continue watching the unabated destruction of the GOP from within.

He's the only one with a combination of sanity, intelligence and respectability.

thus allowing the best and brightest of the Republican field to focus on restoring this country

apoptotic: FTA: "He was, from the start, a media darling..."

I've never once heard the media refer to him in any terms other than "Well gee, I really like the guy, but he just doesn't stand any chance of winning, so let's talk about herpaderp here instead..."

I suppose that kind of counts as a "media darling".
 
2012-01-15 10:24:28 PM
My guess is that he's playing the long game and attempting to better position himself for a 2016 run.

Unfortunately, by then the Republican Party will have moved so far to the right that he'll be seen by the faithful as the biggest commie libtard in all of Commie Libtard town...

About that

With this happening, the most sane non-Romney candidate is now RON PAUL.

Think about that for a moment and let that sink in.

pion: Huntsman for Vice President? Or will Romney follow McCain and choose an idiot as his running mate?

He has to pick some radical right wing nut to keep the party from a brokered convention or independent challenge.

No way we're going to have a double mormon ticket.

I think the chances of there being an all-Mormon ticket are somewhere between "when hell freezes over" and "not in my lifetime".

Well, technically it's Buddy Roemer, but yeah.

His only supporter will be glad that supporters kid isn't wasting any more of dads money.

What will the GOP do without the Manchurian?

I want Newt Gingrich to become President so I can see how many government employees he'll fire because they are 'Liberals'.

THIS!

I guess that means he won't be needing his spot on the ballot in South Carolina anymore. Remember folks, a vote for Huntsman now means you support Stephen Colbert.
 
2012-01-15 10:27:04 PM
The one sane chose on the GOP ticket...gone!
 
2012-01-15 10:27:08 PM
He's endorsing Mitt Romney. Sane? HA!

No way that Romney picks him for VP, simply because they are both Mormons.

Ooooga Boooga....scary Mormons gonna get ya....replace your underwear while you're at work.


I think that Romney will pick Mark Rubio for VP.
