Jon Huntsman

'Plan" or "Agenda" or "Conspiracy". I don't think much is left to the fates anymore in the battle for control of America. But maybe I'm just a born cynic?

Yssup he does have adopted children from China and India. Thought i had read that somewhere.

Chinese children don't often have a distinct religious tradition, hence the omission. The girl is age 12.

Thanks Billy Saul, the sentence did indicate different faiths emcompassed by his family, and the Chinese girl may not have a faith. I didn't consider that. What are your feelings about Huntsman? You are one of the enlightened ones about Perry, and it is early, but do you have a candidate you currently lean toward?

I like Huntsman. He is extremely competent and would fill his staff with competent appointments. That he has a Mormon background is not a negative for me, you know; the Howard Hughes thing and all.

It's a little early to get behind one candidate, lots will change between now and next summer. The important thing is Obama gots to go. Its going to be interesting. Ask me again when its down to 3 or 4 candidates standing and I am more informed about some of the other candidates like Johnson. It's a long process for a reason.
