Harry Reid Picks Huntsman Over Romney As His Favorite Mormon RINO…

Normally I’d say this is the kiss of death but that would be assuming Huntsman has a shot at winning.

(The Hill) — Even though he won’t be able to cast a vote, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) picked his favorite Mormon candidate in the GOP presidential field on Tuesday: Jon Huntsman.

Reid, a Mormon, was asked if the country is ready for a president of his faith since there are two in the Republican primary race — Huntsman, the former U.S. ambassador to China; and Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor.

“Certainly they’re not ready for the former governor of Massachusetts. Which says in that race if I had a choice I would favor Huntsman over Romney,” he told reporters at the Capitol.

Reid criticized Romney, the front-runner, for changing his position on issues such as gay marriage, saying “he doesn’t know who he is.”

“Here’s a man who doesn’t know who he is. He was for gay marriage when he was governor. Now he’s against it. He was for abortion when he was governor. Now he’s against it,” he said.

    They’re gonna sabotage their own sock puppet if they get much more clever.

    YOU WATCH:

    The media will start pushing Huntsman like theres no tomorrow.
    They will pretend hes the only option, just like they did with McCain.

    He is the DNC plant for the republican ticket. We all know this. The ratings for the liberal media are too low for their little brain washing stunt to work this election cycle. The Net will be where this battle is fought and won. Also word of mouth.

    Huntsman could be the Romney kriptonite we have been looking for. Here is what I am thinking, he is going to suck all the oxygen out of the Romney room. He could actually hurt Mittnes in NH, and we could end up with Bachmann or some other more Conservative leaning candidate winning instead of Romney. In other words, Huntsman is doing the same political smarmy word dance in trying to appeal to the Indies and Mod Squad. In truth however, everyone knows Reagan won those people by speaking the 100% Conservative hard hitting truth. (See audio from Rush today for example. Reagan verbally body slammed Carter!) A memo these two morons, and their campaign staff members have yet to read. So, I am all for this weasel worded PROGRESSIVE staying in long enough to smack down the Mittens. In the long run, it could help make sure a Conservative comes out on top of this heap of candidates.

    And mega, major dittoes to Shadow on the MSM having a hard one for Huntsman. It is 2008 McCain deja vu all over again. Blech!

    Harry certainly knows who he is tho, he’s P-Bo’s water carrying, propaganda distributing, spineless bitch. Fogged, gotta agree witcha, we all know! Don’t know who this pawn is listening to, certainly not the conservative mainstream(WZ, who else?).

    Heard Rush this afternoon about Huntsman:

    Anytime a said Republican runs as a “moderate”, he’s a plant!

    Y’all are right! The media will on que, start this blitz that Huntsman is the only viable candidate for the Republican ticket, BLAH-BLAH-BLAH.

    Yep… Sock puppet

    See, this is the type of thing i had in mind when i suggested that conservative voters not leave things in Republican hands.

    :-) We can create our own political ads, with REAL Sock Puppets. We could upload it to dozens of different hosting sites….we could email it to all our friends….and there is nothing the DNC or GOP can do to stop it.

    We can turn this into a guerrilla campaign.

    Reid endorsed Huntsman too early. He’s going to be in trouble with the DNC for exposing their plans. He was supposed to wait until Huntsman sealed the candidacy, then torpedo him.

    OOPSY!

    Who in the world do they think this would fool? Are there really any Republican voters that would be stupid enough to listen to anything Harry Reid has to say?

    And since when do Democrats endorse Republicans? This is too bizarre for words.

    Don’t worry, the MFM will come out in droves to praise the credentials of this loser.

    If he gets 10% of the primary vote I will be surprised. The MFM will pollute the non-thinking drones in this country.

    Not only do we have to beat the demoncraps, we have to beat the MFM. Long row to hoe folks. Let’s hope America is awake this time around.

    Reid said “Here’s a man who doesn’t know who he is. He was for …. wait, that was Obama. Well, he was against … oh yeah, that was potus. And he promised … shit, forgot what I was talking about”.

    ( voice in background “mop in Reids office – crapped his pants — again” )

    Harry Reid (the cowboy poet) says “Romney doesn’t know who he is”.

    Who are you Reid? Show us your real face. Wait, now that I think about it. Don’t.

    It took me months to get over that first close up picture of Maxine Waters’ face. And then I heard her speak……and am still recovering after all these years.

    Any fool knows that when you sanction your opposition, he’s either a plant or you know he’ll easily be clobbered come election time. Harry showed the ace up the sleeve a little too early in the game.

    Foget it Huntsman! You are a waffleing fool! You called Hussein a remarkable leader and say it was before you knew what he was all about. What a fool! You could see who Hussein was and what he was a about before he was elected. Just look at his circle of friends, his confidants and those he adored. YOU NEED TO GET OUT!

    Maybe we will get acomic book to go with this: John Hunstman as “Sockpuppetman”. He could have obamaboy and runawayreid as his underlings.

    Obama, Reid, how many more Democrats told this guy he stands a chance to be the Republican nominee?
