Jon Huntsman Goes Rogue; Criticizes Entire GOP Field On Economy

It’s about time!!!

 

"I wouldn't necessarily trust any of my opponents" with the economy, he said, citing their opposition to the debt deal signed by President Barack Obama earlier this month.

Taking aim at Bachmann's "unrealistic" prediction for $2 gas if she is elected, Huntsman said "I just don't know what world that comes from."

"If we wanted to talk about [Romney's] inconsistencies we'd be here all afternoon," he added when asked about his opponent's position on the flat tax.

Huntsman, who said he believes in global warming and evolution unlike Perry, also criticized the Texas governor's threats against Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke: "Well, I don't know if that's pre-secession Texas or post-secession Texas. But in any event, I'm not sure that the average voter out there is going to hear that 'treasonous' remark and say that sounds like a presidential candidate, that sounds like someone who is serious on the issues."
