Huntsman to Drop Out of GOP Race; Will Endorse Romney

Who was running for what now?

Huntwho? Daddy’s money run out?

Mr Huntsman was right that Americans have a big issue with trust in politicians.

However, by endorsing Romney, he’s just ‘raising the debt ceiling’ on the “trust deficit”. There’s only one trustworthy candidate out there, only one that will do what he says and holds sound principles even in the face of enormous opposition from his peers in congress and from the corporate sponsored media. He also happens to be the only one who is not sponsored by large corporate donations. The only one who receives more donations from active duty military than all the other R candidates combined. Don’t blindly trust the TV pundits, get on the Internet and research these things for yourself and you will be awakened,

Newt ? Statesman? he dumped his first wife because, she is not pretty enough, or young enough to be the wife of a President….

So Huntsman flips about Romney. Guess it takes a flip-flopper to know one.

This should be great news for Dr. Paul. I actually see more of Huntsman’s supporters falling back to Paul vs. Romney.

NAH NAH NAH NAH…HEY HEY HEY….GOOODBYEE!!! Huntsman dropped out of the race!! Another one bites the dust. Not like we didn’t know that already. Huntsman was doomed to the start. He was only in it to make sure Mitt Romney won NH. He did his part. Now he’s gone. Rick Perry will be next to go, followed by Newt and Santorum. The only one worth voting for is RON PAUL. If people can just stop believing everything FLIP-FLOPPING ROMNEY says and actually do the research on him and find out that he is EXACTLY LIKE OBAMA, then we would have no problem saving this country with RON PAUL in office.

Huntsman is out of the race and endorses Romney and worked with Obama. Imagine that. Both the most corrupt individuals of our time. Romney and Obama. Says alot about Huntsman, doesn’t it?

Vote Ron Paul 2012 Restore America NOW!!!

I am considering many important issues concerning the upcoming primary election and how Newt Gingrich chose to run his personal relationships is not ranking high.

Amb. Jon Huntsman is a wise man, indeed. He knows how to pick a winner! And, If, Rep. Ron Paul will draw support from Republicans, Democrats, and especially Independents, how come he’s lost in both Iowa & New Hampshire? Which state has he won so far? Which state will he win in the future Oh yeah, NONE! Furthermore, Sen. McCain was too OLD against Pres. Obama, and Ron Paul is too OLD against Pres. Obama. Ron Paul would be McCain all over again!
Vote for Gov. Romney, someone that CAN actually WIN!
Go, Mitt!

You ROMNEYBOTS are pathetic! Have you even done your research on Romney. He cares nothing for you or the people he hurts. He only cares about MONEY and POWER like Obama. Grow up, Sheeple!! He is Obama in Republican clothing. Vote for an honest candidate who has a clear track record of doing the right thing FOR THE PEOPLE and NOT FOR THE CORPORATIONS (Romney). Vote Ron Paul 2012!! Restore America NOW!!!

Shows Huntsman would rather be Mitt’s ambassador to China than Obama’s lapdog. lol.

Its a Mormon thing….anyways Ron Paul for Pres!

Some of my fellow Conservatives seem to have lost their minds. The primary isn’t just a forum to find the most conservative candidate we can. We need to chose someone that can actually beat Obama. If you want to just win a primary then find the most Conservative guy you can. If you actually want to win the Presidency then smarten up and pick someone that can actually pull in the moderate vote. Romney can do that and that’s why the media is so scared of him.

Moot Newt, Ron Paultard, Santorum, etc. ARE ALL CORRUPT, FAKE, D.C. INSIDER ROYALTY.

Time to end this silly charade, fellow rational, sane Republicans. CHOOSE A PRIVATE SECTOR/FISCAL GENIUS, TRUE FISCAL CONSERVATIVE. MITT ROMNEY. He’s turned big deficits into BIG surpluses, cut taxes 19 times, etc.

Those other jokes aren’t electable, no way, not even on Mars. See the writing on the wall yall.

ROMNEY/RUBIO 2012.

Huntsman”s a total phony. He said he wanted to withdraw from Afghanistan within a year, yet he endorses the candidate most likely to keep us in Afghanistan FOREVER. Huntsman says he is anti-torture, yet he endorses a candidate who supports torture. No problem, Huntsman was doomed after his weak third in New Hampshire. Now, the only candidate in the race that says he will end our idiocy in Afghanistan is Ron Paul and Ron Paul is in it for the duration.

1. “Huntsman, 51, entered the race to high expectations…” The only people with high expectations for Huntsman were in the liberal press.

2. Hey, Vicky, @ 13:37 pm, what in the world are you drinking? The government will survive regardless of which party wins. (It’ll survive if nothing else does.) As to Democrats being the only fighters for Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid, Balderdash! Fighting for the survival of programs necessarily requires searching for ways to ensure future funding for them to prevent their disastrous collapse when Democratic Party promises prove to be hooey, as they will.

LOL @ Bill’s lies.

70% OF THE BUSINESSES BAIN INVESTED IN UNDER ROMNEY ADDED JOBS, PROFITS, ETC. ROMNEY IS OBVIOUSLY THE ONLY TRUE PRIVATE SECTOR CANDIDATE.

COMBINED WITH THE 50,000+ JOBS MITT ADDED TO MA WITH HIS FISCALLY CONSERVATIVE POLICIES, ROMNEY CREATED A TOTAL OF 150,000 JOBS FOR THIS GREAT NATION OF OURS. FACTS.

ROMNEY/RUBIO 2012.

This bickering back and forth between republicans is exactly why the mainstream media is laughing at us and all of our candidates. We need to stick together and back whoever the R nominee is so that we can take our country back and turn it around to what our forefathers intended.

“We need to stick together and back whoever the R nominee is so that we can take our country back and turn it around to what our forefathers intended.”—————That didn’t work so well with the last (R) president ( Homeland Security / Patriot Act ) , so what makes you think going back to doing the same stupid thing , i.e voting for republicans / conservatives , will change anything ? You right wingers are so stupidly dense it’s pathetic . Just don’t vote , please. Blame yourself for voting over and over for R) dingbats like Bush/ Cheney and quit shirking the blame for YOUR stupid voting history by childishly blaming the over-worked and under-appreciated (D) clean-up crew . Duh.

DJW, Mitt Romney was born in Detroit, Michigan. If you look at an Atlas you will see Detroit is part of the USA! George’s parents were both born in the US. They were on a mission in Mexico. If Romney is not a citizen then Obama is definately not one!

Too bad he did not drop out before the vote in New Hampshire..( as most of his voters would have gone to Ron Paul.., who may have then won the state and beat Captain wall street… )

“Mr. Huntsman is a true conservative…” blah blah blah. If he were a TRUE conservative, then he wouldn’t try to convince his followers to vote for the least conservative candidate; the Republican Obama.

Most people could see that Huntsman wasn’t serious. Now it is confirmed. He was just supporting his fellow Mormon. Seems that the Mormons want to get into the top office like crazy and are assured that Mitt TheGlove will be placed in the Oval Office by the controllers who will abandon Obama. O will withdraw from the race, will be shipped back to Chicago to be Mayor, and Rahm will return to DC to support Mitt. They already have shipped Daley back to Chicago and he will be Obama’s helper. The controllers got a lot from O that they wanted done and now are afraid of continued law suits to get O’s papers which will prove he does not fit the legal requirements to be president. Makes a lot of sense. The Controllers have directed the media to support Mitt and that’s what they are doing, just like they obeyed the Controllers and supported Obama when he was a candidate. We need to research and uncover the names of O’s controllers.

Huntsman seemed to be the voice of sanity, decency, and intelligence; but now that he is backing Romney, he has ceased to be for me the symbol of hope that all might not be lost in this election. Perhaps Mr. Huntsman is not all that he seemed to be: the one viable choice among clowns and mental cases.

Look I understand how its easy to cheer for Mitt, Newt or any of the other guys who are pretty much the same..BUT let me just ask these few questions…. Do you support the patriot act and what it has done to your liberties? Do you support the recently signed NDAA bill signed under the distraction of new years eve NOT reported by the major media…. THE SAME MAJOR MEDIA SUPPORTING ROMNEY… I don’t agree with everything Ron Paul says but you cannot argue he’s the only one supporting your freedom to do what you want right now. REMEMBER all of these candidates said they completely support the patriot act and need to strengthen it!! JUST THINK ABOUT IT FRIENDS!

To all the posters making fun of Ron Paul supporters… we take great pleasure in knowing that we will not be voting for Romney and he will lose to Obama because of it. Can’t wait to see the GOP start begging for Paul to be appointed some position because they know without his supporters they can’t win a general election.

Yes! This is great news for Ron Paul. I think that most Huntsman supporters will either go to Ron Paul, stay home, or vote Obama.

Huntsman, in a complete and unexpected SHOCKER withdraws and endorses Romney instead of Obama !

Huntsman was cute, but I’m voting for Ron Paul!

I’m a Ron Paul supporter. If my fellow republicans choose to nominate Gingrich or Romney AKA more of the same that got this nation into this mess, I’m going to sit the election out.

Huntsman endorsing Mitt Romney? I thought they were just attacking each other during the debates.

As Anyone but Romney vote is getting consolidated into 2 or 3 candidates, Romney will be in the second place and Ron Paul or Santorum will move over to the top. Ron Paul stands apart and stands for new direction and shedding the same old same old failed policies and will have a better chance with the majority of Americans..

He is endorsing Romney…hmmmmm shows the true character of Huntsman. RonPaul 2012!

Huntsman’s family gave THOUSANDS to both Obama and Reid’s campaigns. When he announced his candidacy Huntsman was PRAISED by Dirty Harry Reid. In short, I’m glad he’s leaving. Perhaps he can run as the Democrat nominee in 2016?

Billionaire elitist supports elitist worth $500 Million, who would of guessed? Such a shock! There’s only one guy being honest with us, Ron Paul. I’m tired of fighting wars for profiteers and will be voting for Ron Paul.

Just goes to show how phoney all these guys are. Today, one will say this guy is steals from old ladies and is a pervert, the next day he’ll endorse him and say he loves old ladies and children. Mitt Romney is the worst of the lot, all he knows is how to gut companies and make people unemployed. Just what America needs, a vulture. Watch him sell Social Security and Medicare to his pals, privatizing it and watch how Wall Street like drunks will gamble your money and benefits away. You think Social Security doesn’t have enough money coming in now, wait till they get their greedy hands on it. If you don’t think so, you must have forgotten what Wall Street and the banks did to people’s IRA…they went from 401Ks to 101Ks. And don’t plan on retiring anytime soon, they will raise the retirement age to 70 which means many will die before seeing a penny. This is the real Romney.

Ron Paul is gaining support, but there are still people who oppose his ideas of freedom.
Some people are content to be slaves, to be ignorant of their true position in life. Being a serf is easy, just go along with what your master tells you. The anti-Ron Paul comments come from people who are ambivalent to their status as tax slaves, cannon fodder, a voting robot who votes for the candidates that the Establishment decides to put on the ballot for them. This is a great explanation for the anti-Ron Paul people: Plato’s Allegory of the Cave. “Plato lets Socrates describe a group of people who have lived chained to the wall of a cave all of their lives, facing a blank wall. The people watch shadows projected on the wall by things passing in front of a fire behind them, and begin to ascribe forms to these shadows. According to Plato’s Socrates, the shadows are as close as the prisoners get to viewing reality. He then explains how the philosopher is like a prisoner who is freed from the cave and comes to understand that the shadows on the wall do not make up reality at all, as he can perceive the true form of reality rather than the mere shadows seen by the prisoners.”
So many Americans have been fed lies their whole lives, and when someone tells them the truth they rebel against it, just like they rebel against Ron Paul.

You have to wonder….. It sounds as if behind the curtains he got his warning to drop out and endorse Romney. Who comes our ready to compete then three days later quota dead in their tracks. Is this the globalists stepping in to boost their candidate Romney?

well if you needed a sign to prove the end of the world is coming , this election should prove it. Their is not one person out there on ether party that can be trusted with one penny let alone the country and the world. All we get every election is the same bottom feeders in both parties, which their goal is the same total control communism and all the money for them and their friends, they both use the weak and the stupid to get there agenda passed. The democrats say the rich are making you poor , and the republicans pass off some old hack , and say we need to pick the lesser of two evils…well I say evil is evil. screw them none of the above. both parties have ignored the constitution, which is the rule book that they have to follow, whille taking away all our freedom and money and giving it to our enemies and peo;le tha will vote for them and dont do any thing to try to work or support themselves.. screw romney and obama and anyone that suppoerts them you are all spineless idiots. if these are the choices you are happy with good luck with the end of the world(it might not end , but it sure wont be worth living in with these corrupt jerk offs running it

Live with the on going lie or vote for Ron Paul.
How about those tax records Mitt?

NEWCOUNTRYMAN | January 16, 2012, 8:54 AM, SAID:

“Ron Paul flys in the face of those who feel the government should play a substantial role in their lives…”
======================================
For some strange reason, after all this time of viewing your post, I have always thought you were an adult that “stopped believing in Santa Claus”.

You do know that the “(R)” beside Paul’s name is what is preventing him from becoming President…. the powers-that-be in the Republican party won’t allow Paul to be their nominee. (PERIOD!), that’s just a fact of life some are going to have to grow up and accept.

This is Paul’s third try at the White House. “The third time’s the charm” is not a phrase that applies here… hehehehehe!

That should solidify him a Cabinet Position in the Romney Administration. (and there WILL be a Romney Administration)

All you Ron Paul sheep…for a man who constantly professes to be small government, no waste, and keeping govt out of your lives, he sure loves to take every advantage of his little perks…Recent story just came out saying Paul from 2009 – present has traveled First class on over 20 round trip flights from DC to Texas. He also has over 40 one way First class tickets…all bought using tax payer money!!! He supports the govt in TX saying the women wanting an abortion MUST undergo needless ultrasounds before getting an abortion. RON PAUL IS A HYPOCRATE!!!! I’d rather vote for a candidate who admits changing his policies than one that doesn’t practice what they preach. The hand writing is on the wall you trolls…Paul is DONE!! Just go back to TX and sit on your front and be racist there Ronnie boy!

X-Repub (9:07 AM); I’m also a romantic. Especially on these blogs. Maybe it won’t matter if he’s the ‘R’ nominee. Wouldn’t that be historic?

I’m also dropping out of the race for president. I’m going to put my two votes that I had during my campaign (mine and my moms) and support Mr. Romney as well. Just like Huntsman.

REPUBLICANS REMIND ME OF A BUNCH OF FORREST GUMPS =====Republicans are a bunch of war hero’s, star athletes and successful businessmen? Of course they are….If you are trying to be sarcastic or demeaning you are lousy at it.

“Guess he’s hoping for a position in his administration.”

You’re right about that. Probably needs something else to round out his resume.

Anybody who drops out without waiting for the election results doesn’t have his heart in it.
In my opinion, there are only two candidates who want it bad enough and one of them is a game-show-host phony.

Rob Smith said Either it’s Paul or we do not vote this November—Really?? Who are you trying to kid???

A cynic Here we are, ten years into the Afghanistan War, and not one of his progeny volunteered for military service.—-So???

We remember a few years back, stunned to see Iowa farmers sobbing as they stood outdoors watching Auctioneers sell off the family farms, farms in the same family for generations. Many prayers were said for them to be strong, regain their lives and buy back farms whenever possible. We have just see the same Iowans vote for a man who rejects Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Saviour. So, Iowa, you go ahead and pray to Mr. Smith when you get in trouble again, and you certainly will. What audacity it would be for you to pray to God for any help, asking in the name of Jesus Christ, as Christians. You have made your choice. You could have voted for a Christian man who as an OBGYN delivered 4000 babies into the USA, is an Air Force Veteran, faithful husband, good parent and grandparent, reliable congressman, lover of America and Americans. Don’t talk about your respect for life, your love of our troops, your desire to have honest politicians. You kicked the best one out of Iowa in favor of a corporate greedy liar who does not respect life, never been in our military and would use our troops for political purposes, has a Stepford wife and family culture, and is against Christ in favor of a goofy cult leader. New Hampsire earned the same reaction from Christians but they have never stood for much since the revolution except money. South Carolina might be more American and kick the Mormons out. We ARE a Christian nation, angry with the illegal and pals in government, and will have our country and freedom back.

A CYNIC So Paul is saying that Romney is a chickenhawk.\\\\\\\\\ Obama has never served either.

It is certainly heartening for this progressive Independent Obama supporter to witness the division on the Right…

And, of course, the sub-par nature of the field of GOP candidates (of whom ROMNEY is the only even potentially electable one, and he has serious problems including his political and business record AND the fact that he has already been rejected as a “RINO” and “liberal” by many on the far right).

Gingrich is the ultimate Washington insider, a corporate lobbyist by any other name, accumulated 84 ethics violation charges during his time in office, and was essentially forced to resign by his OWN party, he was such a liability. We don’t even have to go into his PERSONAL life/affairs.

Paul is a radical Libertarian who lacks the support of a significant percentage of the GOP base (who are Republicans, not Libertarians, after all) for his positions on defense, Israel, and, believe it or not, the dismantling of most of the federal government (despite the impression one might get from listening to the Tea Partiers and far right extremists, a solid majority of Republicans still believe in the Constitution and its creation of a federal government and its empowerment of it to levy taxes, regulate interstate commerce, and promote the general welfare…they are not radicals who want to eliminate the IRS, the Dept. of Education, EPA, FDA, Social Security, etc.).

None of the others even bear mentioning.

Romney (or whoever..but it WILL be Romney) will be running against an incumbent President whose overall approval ratings have, to date, rivaled or beaten those of Reagan in HIS first term,

who has overseen the creation of 3 million private sector jobs (of the 8.75 million we lost under Bush and in his administration’s immediate wake), and almost 2 YEARS now of consecutive monthly PS job growth,

likewise overseen the apprehension of bin Laden and roughly 40 other terrorist king-pins, the overthrow of Mubarak and Gaddafi, & the END of the war in Iraq.

Oh, and all that TARP money Bush signed into law? All PAID BACK with INTEREST under Obama (who attached strings to it and they couldn’t pay it back fast enough).

You’re welcome.

Bottom line, you guys are going to have a tough fight under the BEST of circumstances, and an IMPOSSIBLE one with a weak candidate and a split electorate.

A CYNIC: “Romney avoided the draft with deferments, just like Dick Cheney and Bill Clinton..”

Just a clarification/elaboration, if I may; Cheney is on record as saying he “had more important things to do” during VietNam (than serve in a war he supported and urged others to fight).

Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar and so exempt from service in the war he openly OPPOSED.

While technically accurate (both avoided service on deferments of one sort or another), I don’t think it’s proper to lump the two in together given their differing positions on the war.

Cheney comes across as an arrogant, entitled hypocrite. While Clinton may come across as arrogant and entilted, at least he wasn’t a hypocrite about it.
