Utah's li'l maverick*
No wonder Jon Huntsman feels a kinship with vice-presidential candidate and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin — they are both extremely popular in their states. According to the Rasmusen Report the most popular (rated good or excellent by their constituents) U.S. governors are:John Hoevenk, R-N.D., 73 percentI'd like to point out that popular governors are overwhelmingly Republican. (Not to mention that they lead states nobody in their right mind wants to live in.) And the least popular U.S. governors are predominately Democrats from populous states.
Mike Beebe, D-Ark. 68 percent
Jon Huntsman - 68 percent
Dave Heineman, R-Neb., 66 percent
Sarah Palin - 64 percent
Beyond that, Huntsman doesn't share many characteristics with the veep candidate whom he described
in his intro as:She's a hockey mom, a hunter, a hard-hitting reformer, and quite frankly, she's not afraid in a little town called Washington to kick a few fannies and raise a little hell.At this point, Utahns, already shocked by the Guv using the H-word, lost consciousness when Jon actually raised his voice.
In a world of artificiality, we are looking for originality, we are looking for authenticity, we are looking for a rebel, a renegade - we are looking for Sarah!*Hey, he rides a motorcycle and listens to Captain Beefheart.

And I quote you Glen:
"(Not to mention that they lead states nobody in their right mind wants to live in.)"
Glen, such elitism and looking down your nose at rural people in middle America rural states is not only what cost Kerry the election last time, and what cause Gore to bore people to death, but its comments by Obama in San Francisco that cost him some votes in these key middle America states.
Don't want to live in Alaska, that's fine Glen, but there is nothing wrong with people who's families come from there and they chose to live there, or Nebraska or any of the other states you have offended.
Really, you ought to apologize, becuase I think you were probably raised better.
Oh anonymous, just stop. Glen is being satirical. The GOP would have you believe in another made-up rift (sorta like the humanist-secularists vs. the godly) to keep this country polarized. Don't buy into it. It's a product of the Karl Rove consulting machine. It's crap. We are one country--it's not that hard to believe it and practice it.
Oh, Hell....Huntsman said the "H" word??!! Oh no! Elder Haight must be spinning in his grave!!
UM, NO. Get a life, people. "Hell" is not a curse, cuss or swear-word. Hell, I've been saying it for years. And while I am certainly destined for Hell, I don't give a rat's ass if my Governor says "Hell" because, by Hell, he is one person who won't be going to Hell.
Hell, if Jon Huntsman is going to Hell for saying the word "Hell" - than shit, I'm already a goner.
