Well said, exactly!! People need to look at these people's platforms. No one looked at Ron Paul much until recently, and then fainted-lol. <<Huntsman is good for the country only if you want to end the safety net, end social security as we know it, end medicare as we know it, end a woman's right to choose, end much of the regulatory capability of the federal government, enhance the already enhanced economic and social inequality in this country, seriously undermine public education, and so on. And I'm only getting started. The contemporary incarnation of the Republican party is not a conservative party but of a "return to the 19th century" party. A vote for Huntsman is a vote to give the Republican Party control of both houses of congress, of the presidency, and to make the supreme court even less amenable to civil rights, campaign finance reform, serious healthcare reform, and so on.
