John Huntsman is a Righteous Weenie

In the last election, I found myself voting for the number two position on the ticket, Paul Ryan.  He is an awesome man, a wonderful human being and an all around decent conservative.  I'm not a fan of Mitt Romney's and much like McCain, he was only the nominee because he outlasted the other, better candidates, and the GOP establishment decreed it was his "turn".  They have almost lost me.  I consider myself a conservative independent now.  Much like President Reagan thought of the democratic party, I'm not leaving the GOP, it's leaving me.
I don't quite understand the Libertarian Party either.  They seem to just want to be left alone and they have some quirky views on some things that I can't reconcile myself to support.  I understand their opinions about the war on drugs.  It's mostly an abject failure, common sense is not applied anywhere that I can see in this particular war.
But on the other hand, the social safety nets that we have in place do save many people.  I have no problem with a person in dire straights using food stamps until they can manage to get back on their feet.  Just don't make it a lifestyle, you know?  Libertarians would have all of those things removed and rely on the social programs in place.  I'm okay with that to a point, but I like the idea of a back up to the back up.
Enter John Huntsman.  He ran in the last Presidential election and he was an outside chance at best.  It has been revealed that his campaign was the one responsible for some clinton-esque leaks about two of his opponents.  One of them was Herman Cain, the man that had my initial support to be president.  When the initial mud began to be flung, I put the blame for that round of mud on team b.o.  The last thing he would have wanted to run against was a successful black man, especially one that had managed to do it without suckling at the government teat.
Ironically, the msm that had years before told me that slick willie's serial indiscretions were of zero relevance to the job he was doing, just about broke their own legs and necks to breathlessly report every drop of mud that could be scraped up about Mr. Cain and or Speaker Gingrich.  Disgusting.  One of the debates even had the lack of taste to begin with the baseless mud that was being slung at Newt Gingrich.  He did a wonderful job of dismantling that.

Just a wonderful job.
So now there is evidence that Huntsman not only had his team leak the information-that is to say lies- about Herman Cain, they also released a ton of dirt about Mitch Daniels, the governor of Indiana at the time.  It would seem that he would have carved away some of the share that Huntsman was clinging to, and it was decided that releasing the very personal information about Governor Daniels' divorce and marriage would remove his entrance into the presidential race.  Let me repeat: John Huntsman is a righteous weenie.
Whatever happened to running on your own ideas, and hoping that people agreed with your opinions?  The Clinton's raised personal destruction to a new level, and Huntsman just followed right through with it.  Shame on him.
Because of that righteous weenie, we were left with Romney.  And while Romney may be an excellent man, husband, father, and human being (and I believe he is) he was never ever going to win against b.o.  The msm saw to that.
The Libertarian Party clings to Huntsman, and if they want to have a shred of integrity left, they will throw him to the wolves.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.
