Rachel just outlined the GOP strategy.

Thanks Rachel, finally someone is grabbing onto this before Fox manipulates it. (See thread below)

We all know that Ron Paul is completely unacceptable to the GOP puppet masters, he is rogue pawn in the game of chess. He is just a shield for the eventually nominee that the party establishment will choose.

Huntsman is one to watch out for.

1. Huntsman is looking to call for closing of the war, knowing Obama is going to call for it soon.

It a way of stealing the thunder and taking the credit!

2. HUH?

Huntsman is not even in the margin of error ...

He is dead, no money, no support ...

He makes Nwet and Santorum look like contenders ...

5. I still think it's a chess strategy.

Huntsman is by far the most electable. Here are my thoughts, Huntsman is the most electable. They have no intention of closing down the wars, they're just saying they do. If elected to office, they will put it off just as Obama has done.

Ron Paul, I believe would honestly bring the wars to a close. The establishment will not stand for that.

7. Unless you plan on voting for Huntsman .. he will not get

the nomination........

I would assume you are not a republican. Not being a republican you don't really get a say in who the republicans put up.
Huntsman is probably the most intelligent of the republicans. They are not looking for intelligence. They are looking for a fire breathing idiot. If a republican was elected president then Huntsman would be the best choice for this country. He would hurt this country but far less than any of the others. I believe he would actually try to work with the democrats.

9. LMAO, no my friend I am pretty far left

Fo far in fact, I once tripped over my socialist yoga mat bag, slide on a stack of my ACLU cards and hit my head on my DVD cabinet which coincidentally has every one of Jeannine Garofalo's films, lol.

I just think that the establishment is going to control who gets their parties nomination. My guess is that there is already a "grand" strategy at work. Id bet that there is going to be one or two very late entrees, thats if they don't manipulate their election process to hand the nomination to a so called "electable moderate" it's a bit conspiracy theorist, however you can put it past the GOP these days.

4. Conservatives love wars. Calling to end them won't win Huntsman the nomination

Huntsman is there just to torpedo Romney.


He will eventually answer some very candid questions about his Mormon faith and the Romney will be asked about his comments. Mittens is screwed.

6. You really think so?

If that's the case, he sure is doing a pretty weak job of it. Getting Romney out of the way is a lot easier, I think. I think Huntsman has got his sights that are set a lot higher.

8. TFreaks won't support Huntsman.
