For anyone that has really looked at Huntsman's record, he is more of a Democrat than a Republican. I suspect that more Democrats (The kind of Democrats that can't vote for a 1/2 black man) would vote for Huntsman.

I don't think it much matters. Huntsman couldn't even sniff 3% in the GOP race and very few Dems will consider a Republican governor over Obama anyway. If Huntsman runs a 3rd Party campaign, he won't get but maybe 1% at best. Of course, every vote against Obama counts. But there are always going to be 3rd Party candidates. I'd be more concerned with a Ron Paul candidacy.

YAWN.

NOW THAT HUNSTMAN IS ENDORSING MITT, THE ONLY WAY HE CAN RUN ON THIRD PARTY IS IF MITT LOSES NOMINATION.

I EXPECT MITT TO WIN NOMINATION.

THEREFORE AMERICANS ELECT WILL HAVE TO RECRUIT RON PAUL OR SOMEONE ELESE

"Americans Elect" only seeks 2% of the vote in battleground states.

2% of the republican vote.

@ Trialdog:

2% is all that is needed . They don't need a Ross Perot in 2012, a Ralph Nader will do.

In fact, with as fractured as the Republicans are, anyone who was on all 50 ballots would be able to siphon off enough votes to assure Obama the election. Anyone.

AE is an Obama campaign front group, pure and simple. If they proceed as planned, this election is already over.
