Yep. He sounds like another RINO to me.

What's up with Utah?

I am not a Mormon, so I can be corrected by one who n=knows more about them culturally, but Trump's ventures into coarseness may just rub them the wrong way, the way Kerry's smarmy condescension rubs me the wrong way. Also, the wall was his signature issue, and the whole missionary thing may depend on bodies freely going both in and out of the U.S.

Apparently, knowing this was effectively the real Governor’s race, there was a large push for Democrats to change their registration to R so they could vote for Huntsman. Even with that, they failed, and Cox will easily win in November.

“Don’t know anything about Cox, but Huntsman was definitely a Bush League Republican.”

This is a somewhat disturbing fact. Sounds like a Romney beat a Romney.

He also had to fend off criticisms from his opponents, who have made an issue of his decision to leave the state to work in the Obama administration.

Another Romney Republicrat bites the dust.

Huntsman is a piece of sh*t. I can’t stand his globalist anti-American bigotry.

What is it about mormons that once they get money they flip out and become more gay and globalist?

said, "Just say NO to Bush league Republicans."

Choice between a Democrat or a Bush league Republican. I would either abstain from voting or reluctantly vote for the dem. The lessor of two evils is the dem because he doesn't pretend to be your friend

The Huntsmann daughter on the left,the other “conservative” (the other Meghan McCain) on the View, was dumber than a box of rocks and no conservative. I don’t think she could handle selling perfume at Macy’s makeup counter and only has a career because of her name.

She supposedly left the show to help her dad’s campaign.

the wall has nothing to do with missionary work. Mormon missionaries have proper credentials to live in the countries where they proselytize.

Looks like another Never-Trumper goes out to pasture.


In October 2015, Cox endorsed Marco Rubio for the Republican Party nomination in the 2016 presidential primary.[14] After Rubio withdrew, Cox endorsed Ted Cruz in March 2016.[15] Of Donald Trump, the front-runner, Cox said: “We care a lot about decorum. We care about our neighbors. We are a good, kind people. He does not represent neither goodness nor kindness.”[16] He said he would not support Trump if he wins the Republican nomination: “I think he’s disingenuous. I think he’s dangerous. I think he represents the worst of what our great country stands for.... I won’t vote for Hillary, but I won’t vote for Trump, either.”

Not really......

I am afraid only God will do that. Thankfully he was old when he was elected. He’ll be in the seat until his last breath or he leaves. Utah seems to be a strange state.

This is good news. When a NeverTrumper is licked to the curb it is always news that starts a day off right.

My extreme lefty next door neighbor said that Huntsman is the only Republican she could ever see herself voting for.

“My extreme lefty next door neighbor said that Huntsman is the only Republican she could ever see herself voting for.”

Heard the same about McCain from my parents. Guess who they did NOT vote for in 2008, when they had the chance. They effectively troll our side that way, without even knowing it, in the case of my parents (and perhaps your neighbor too).
