Which Republican Was the Obama Camp Most Scared Of Running Against? The Answer May Surprise You

Nov. 20, 2012 3:20pm Benny Johnson

Which Republican Does Obamas Campaign Manager Think Would Have Had The Best Chance At Beating Obama?

After a grueling campaign season, Obama’s campaign manager Jim Messina sat down for a rare on camera interview Tuesday morning with Politico’s White House corespondent Mike Allen. Allen asked Messina “what republican candidate would have had the best shot at beating your boss?”

Messina thought for a moment and said, “I think we were honest about our concerns about Huntsman.”

“I think Huntsman would have been a very tough general election candidate,” he continued. “He’s a good guy. We looked at his profile in a general election and thought he would have been difficult.”

On January 31, 2011, Huntsman submitted his resignation from his post as U.S. Ambassador to China. Huntsman formally entered the race for the Republican presidential nomination on June 21, 2011, announcing his bid in a speech at Liberty State Park in New Jersey. The former Utah governor finished third in the New Hampshire primary and announced the end of his campaign on January 16, 2012, endorsing Mitt Romney.

If he would have made it to the general election, the 2012 campaign would have certainly looked different:

  The problem with Huntsman is that he was an Ambassador.
  
  And we all know how this Administration treats Ambassadors….. : (

  Even Mitt could have won if:
  1. We had massed True the Vote folks in the known strategic pockets of vote stealing
  2. Mitt had come out, with rousing, hard hitting speeches about attacking the debt not each other, closing our borders so non citizens would not rob us of our jobs, reversing illegal Presidential exec orders, and other Tea Party things that won in 2010.
  
  We can afford a hand up, but we can no longer afford hand outs.

  I think Newt Gingrich would consumed Obama brain in a debate. There’s no way Obama could have even come close to matching the intellectual brilliance of Gingrich. THAT would have been fun to watch. Honestly though, with the way the media was in full spin mode, I doubt any republican could have won:

  Mr. Beck is personal friends with John Huntsman, hence the puff piece. This friendship might be an indictment of Mr. Huntsman’s reasoning ability.
  
  Anyway, did you hear Mr. Beck today giving a glowing review to another “friend” if his’ new musical, “A Christmas Story”? Mr Beck says he hates “The Christmas Story” but gave the musical high praise.
  
  Mr. Beck can be bought for as little as the price of a ticket. Maybe That’s why Mr. Huntsman tolerates him.

  You couldn’t be more right. The “unions” need to go!!!! This is the problem in America, and the fact that that prayer has been removed from all sports and school activities. As a baby boomer, I’m disgusted that Washington D.C and the Supreme Courts have allowed this to happen. It’s disgusting and wrong. If people don’t want to pray, then don’t. We’re not holding a gun to their heads. No one made us pray when we were growing up. Our parents taught us and instlled right from wrong, and we respected our elders and our parents. We honored our dead, we honored and respected our military. We believe in the ten commandments and they should always be honored. No they should not be removed from public space.
  It’s wrong as our country was built on God’s faith and we should never allow it to change. NEVER.

  Huntsman was the only Republican I would have voted for. Posted here he was the only Republican that could win. But he served his country at the request of a Democrat, must be a RINO. But he believed in science, must be a closet atheist. But he spoke Mandarin, must be a communist. He was impeccably educated…ELITE!! So the base dismissed their only winner on ‘principle’.
  He actually understood economics and foreign affairs. He had a better resume for the White House than anyone since George the First. He would have won independents and moderates and broke even with women. Of course the Democrats feared him, they understand the electorate. He won’t run again, but Santorum and Gingrich and another Bush will. They’ll lose too.

  I absolutely agree with this article. Hunstmann is moderate. Something the far right republican caucus could not tolerate. He was only republican voice of reason on that stage. He’s LDS but believes in anthropomorphic global warming, believes in evolution, and appreciates the spirituality of other faiths. It’s sad day in american when an Eisenhower minded republican get booted from the party. I should also mention another formidable 2016 ticket would be Jeb Bush, and Chris Christie. Jeb bush is very moderate, married to a hispanic, knows fluent spanish etc, popular among spanish speaking voters in Florida. Christie is also a moderate (which in recent times has hurt him politically) I believe that ticket would pose a serious challenge to democrats.

  Huntsman believes in evolution and global warming, and, in general, science. That’s three strikes. Someone like that doesn’t have a chance to win a Republican primary.
  
  Republicans aren’t stupid enough to believe all this “science” nonsense. Marco Rubio, a leading contender for the Presidency in 2016 – especially since he’s Hispanic – has already declared his position on this so called science issue by saying he doesn’t know if the universe is 9000 years old or +13 billion because he isn’t a “scientist.” That’s a start anyway.
  
  The only way Republicans have a chance of winning future elections is by declaring the Truth: global warming is a big money making hoax, people didn’t evolve from monkeys (then why are there still monkeys???), that you can learn all you need to about the age of the Earth by reading the Bible and that tax breaks for rich people is the only tried and true way to stimulate the economy.
  
  Forget these RINOS. We have to take this country back and the only way is to hewing to the TRUTH.

  To be honest America chose to be a prostitute. Many voter blocks chose to sell their votes for hand outs, open borders, or whatever Obama was promising to give them this time. Americans prostituted themselves.
  On the flip-side, the prostitute won the election. Obama was willing to sell himself and American values and other people’s money for votes. He prostituted himself.
  I will never vote for a prostitute regardless of the party label. Today, the GOP is talking about what they can sell off for votes (namely open borders to Hispanics). This will only buy fleeting loyalty, like a prostitute loves you until the money runs out then she is off to other men.
  If Hispanic votes are for sale and the price is our sacred principles of the Rule of Law…NO DEAL!!!
  If the GOP is willing to sell our sacred principles for votes….NO DEAL!!!
  I refuse to treat people as prostitutes. I refuse to treat myself as a prostitute. We have dignity! NO DEAL!!!
  GOP if you sell out…NO DEAL!!!

I love Glenn, but I believe that he is the one that took Newt out of the race. Beck took Newt out from the beginning and everyone he pushed for after that………well, we know how it all ended. And so we must rock on. Beck has always said that he is not good at politics, and we should hold him at his word. Sorry Beck.

  Here’s what we REALLY need to be paying attention too:
  
  GOP legally barred from fighting vote fraud
  Voting machines suspiciously defaulting to Barack Obama? Buses loaded with strangers appearing at polling stations? Even ballots turning out 100 percent for one candidate in precinct reports?
  In short, suspicions of vote fraud?
  That’s too bad, because a race-based consent decree negotiated by Democrats against the Republican National Committee a generation ago still has tied the RNC’s hands, and GOP officials could be cited for contempt – or worse – if they try to make sure American elections are clean.
  Impossible?
  No. Fact.
  The case is the Democratic National Committee vs. the Republican National Committee, originally from 1982…. http://www.wnd.com/2012/11/gop-legally-barred-from-fighting-vote-fraud/print/

  The Obama Administration was worried about running against a Progressive Socialist who’s more to the left than Romney? That’s hard to believe.
  
  Romney never could have won, unless he got all of Obama’s voters. Principled Conservatives simply refused to vote for him. Those of us who were less principled and desperate voted anyway.
  
  Gingrich might be a hardass, but he’s not a Conservative. He’s a Republican and he’s very open about that fact that he’s a Progressive.

  He warned of attackes against us because our meddling in other countries affairs even before 9/11.

  You’re correct, my friend. There is a continuous false narrative that pervades the media: “If Romney did _______, then he would have won.” Romney actually did win! Remember how independents were siding with Romney by double digits? Remember the increase in Republican registration/turnout? Remember the opposite for Democrats? Remember the crowd sizes? Remember the enthusiasm gap? Remember the first debate? Remember? And you want to tell me that, nope, Obama won every single swing state??? You want to tell me that Romney did not get a single vote in 59 PA locations? You want to tell me that the people that don’t get off the couch to get a job are the very same who got off the couch in record numbers to stand in line to vote?? The narrative is a joke!! Anyone that thinks Obama won this thing fair and square is deluding themselves. 2016 will not make one bit of difference who is chosen for Republicans.

  Are you not aware that the Tea Party just took shellacking in the recent election? The reason is: The Tea Party supporters come out hard in the primaries and nominate extremists like Mourdock, Walsh, Akin and West. The masses have seen the Tea Party folks and what they bring to the table and they don’t want it. Reasonable people vote for reasonable candidates, and the Tea Party is just plain unreasonable.

  Marco Rubio is already out there spewing the destruction of the Rule of Law (that means that the law is king, not a man). Always read “amnesty” or “immigration reform” as the destruction of the Rule of Law.
  Another sacred principle Marco is wanting to destroy is the Equal Protection of the Law. When he wants to show favoritism to illegals over those that are patiently waiting in line, he is destroying the Equal Protection of the Law.
  When a group is willing to sell themselves (their votes) for trinkets (favorable policies) they are prostitutes.
  When a Party is willing to sell their nation’s sacred principles for votes they are prostitutes.
  Remember a Prostitute only loves you until your trinkets are gone.
  If the GOP is willing to treat people as prostitutes (like the Democrats) or be treated as prostitutes I say NO DEAL!!! Our dignity requires much more than that. I refuse to treat any group like a whore and I refuse to be treated as a whore. NO DEAL!!!

  Huntsman? ….really?
  These stories are an attempt to test our resolve and use ‘reverse psychology’ on Conservatives (try to convince us you’re afraid of the person you would really have loved to run against). A Huntsman/Oshamo contest would have been a no-lose election for progressives regardless of the outcome. Reverse psychology may work on the ‘useful idiots’ on the left, but the idea is just insulting to the rest of us who actually have a brain. Remember the story of the “Fox and the hare” …the rabbit said, “please don’t throw me in the brier patch” (when that’s exactly what he wanted). Then he danced and sang…”I fooled you, I fooled you…was born and raised in the brier patch”. …rf

  Huntsman was the smartest, most qualified and most sane candidate that the GOP had running…..which means he’s a “progressive” and part of the problem and doesn’t belong in the GOP.

  HORSE: I’m not convinced of that. With the IQ of the average democratic voter, we could have really built on the Snow White and the Huntsman movie. Could have been pretty easy to convince them they were voting for Kristin Stewart and Robert Pattinson – and with her affair with the married producer it could have been a slam dunk because the single moms that voted for free contraception and aborton love that $hi+. Obama voters will bite on anything it seems….
  
  In all honesty, I think the right candidate was Huckabee…we’ll never know.

  If you really believe that, then you can be persuaded by the mass media to believe anything. I’m convinced that Romney got more votes than Obama. But you know what? The number on the TV screen 5 ft in front of my TV dinner stand said Obama won. Oh well, I guess that means Obama won. TV said so. And we all know that the media knows all, and numbers (especially electronic ones not able to be verified by the public or tested against authentic ID) can be fudged. Ahhh…the age of electronic numbers and money and math. Let me just crack this odometer, so to speak, and roll this puppy back before I resell. Get my point? No, Romney did not do worse than McCain. And no, I don’t have hard evidence to back my wild claims. But does anyone have “hard evidence” to back up the claim that Obama won? I mean, other than “TV said so”? (Sigh)

I would have thought it was Herman Cain, a full blood African American. The Demoocrrats would have not been able to use the race card. Because of the R behind his name most blacks didn’t even notice the color of his skin.Blacks are always swept under the rug. When Jessie Jackson ran he was bought off. The Dems have been promising the world to blacks and buy them off with a tricket. More wefare, free phones and lead them around with a ring thru their noses. We did the same to the Indians 250 years ago with beads or trinkets.

  Let’s not kid ourselves. The libs ALWAYS use the race card, the sexist card, the xenophobe card and the homophobe card. This election was decided long ago. Mitt used kid gloves against Obama, (the nice guy) and failed to fire up the conservative base. The problem with establishment repubs is their “base” is the independent moderates. Conservatives are just ignored. They play to lose, and when they win, they play from a weak hand. They want 90% the same as liberals, expand their power, they just want to get there a couple years behind the liberal pace. I’ve had enough of both parties.

  Voters will always go for the real liberals over light-weight ones.
  Ron Paul was the only one who drew the crowds and got the attention of the demographics the GOP need in order to win.

  If you want to lay blame anywhere for Obama’s re-election, then put it at the doorstep of the Republican Party leaders.

I am still not sure Romney didn’t win and it would be hard to make me believe it, but we will never find out. Huntsman was the choice of the left if they couldn’t pull off an Obama win through lies and deceit. He was another Chris Matthews’ idol.

I think it would have been a wash, personally. Huntsman might have picked up some moderate independents, but he would have turned off the religious base (even moreso than Romney). And even the amount of moderates he could have gotten might have been slighted by the GOP’s platform. Romney was seen as a flip-flopper but -relatively- moderate on issues like abortion, contraceptives, and gay marriage… but the GOP platform was extremely socially conserative on these issues.

Unless the GOP becomes fiscally conservative and leaves the social issues to the people, what candidate they choose will not matter.

  @Locked: You’re obviously a Paulbot. That’s why Ron Paul was looked at like a joke to True Conservatives. To be a Conservative, you must FIRST be Socially Conservative. Fiscally Conservatism (or, responsibility) is simply a symptom of becoming more responsible as a person.
  
  Remember, it’s FIRST FAMILY, then work your way outward. Saying that you can (should) be fiscally responsible without being morally responsible is asinine.
  
  I’m NOT a member of the GOP or ardent supporter of any party. However, in my lifetime I’ve never voted for a Demoncrat because I see the immorality. You can be just as immoral and be fiscally Conservative. Wouldn’t you call Bernie Madoff et al “Fiscally Conservative? Social Leftism is actually what’s suicide for Conservatives.

Jon Huntsman would have been a tough adversary for the Obama campaign to beat. Voters should pick him for the GOP nomination in 2016. He probably has the best chance against Hillary Clinton in 2016. The Republican party is currently the way the Democratic party was before Bill Clinton ran for president. The problem with the Republican party is that they do not have anyone like Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, or Barack Obama who can connect with people.

For those who think Romney lost because he wasn’t “conservative enough” guess again. Many Liberals, Independents, and minority voters were enthusiastic about voting in this election cycle because they reject the Tea Party values. Many moderate Republicans voted for Obama because they feel he is more to the center than Romney.

If Rick Santorum was the Republican nominee, it would have been even easier for Obama to win because Santorum is the one who started the war on women’s health by writing a proposal which bans contraception

  Why would we listen to someone’s advice when they hate us and want us destroyed politically? That doesn’t seem too bright at all. If the right is “rabid” as the some say, it is. A sign of the times. We’ve never been ratcheting up debt like this outside of World War 2. On top of a handful of broke failing entitlement programs we brilliantly decide to create another. Europe is collapsing from it’s debt right in front of us. So yes maybe being the political movement of restraint and personal responsibility will get us hated. In the end though, history will vindicate us as being the only people who apparently don’t suck at maths and can tell that the government is on an unsustainable path.

LOL, what a joke. Yes, another progressive would have done well. BS!!!!! Only one candidate on the GOP side this time had a chance. It was Ron Paul. He would have gotten the ABO vote, he would have captured the youth vote, he would have gotten the anti war vote, he would have gotten the libertarian vote.

Ron Paul was the only one talking about anything different. The rest all said the same things. The GOP talking points dont hold up to the Democrat attacks. The progressive and liberal talking points dont stand up to the libertarian view points.

With Ron Paul, during the debates Obama would have had to answer questions about:
1. Benghazi
2. Obamacare/Romneycare huge tax increase.
3. The NDAA, indefinite detention clause.
4. Trillion dollar deficits.
5. The UN.
6. The FED.
7. Abortion.
8. Amnesty.
9. States rights.
10. Our overseas militarism.
11. Our foreign aid disasters.

People would have been given a choice on issues about the direction of the country. Romney offered more of the same polices on spending, war, and freedoms. Hell the third debate all they did was agree with each other. They were two sides of the same coin.

Its time to wake up. Go towards liberal and progressive views will only end with Democrats winning. We need to move towards the Constitution. Yes, it will be hard, but in the end when the socialist plan fails, and it will. There will atleast be a group that warned against it, instead of the other party ag

Ron Paul would have been labeled a weirdo and an extremist and would have been destroyed in a general election. As it is the left LOVES libertarians. People like Mutiny spent all their time and effort during the election taking down Republican enthusiasm and encouraging conservatives to waste their vote on third parties. That would all change the second libertarians become a political force actually strong enough to challenge the left nationally. The Democrats would turn three fourths the country against you guys through tearing apart and exaggerating everything they could about Ron Pauls stances.

  I would vote for Paul if he were on the ticket sure. I find myself at odds with Paul and especially his supporters over this election. The thing is I actually agree with most of what Libertarians believe in. I don’t even have the standard “talk show conservative” objection to a Paul foreign policy. I’m certainly tired of playing policeman for an ungrateful world that doesn’t want it. As such I’d say I’m somewhere in the middle between the talk show crowd and libertarians on foreign policy. Unfortunately I think libertarians made perfection the enemy of the good. You guys believe that Romney was just as bad as Obama, which is something you’ll never convince me of. Agree to disagree I guess. I simply do not think the country is ready for a Ron Paul style president. Hell the left successfully demagogued Romney as a crazy right winger who was going to cut off all the welfare. I could only imagine what they would have done to Paul had he been the nominee. We need to win the culture and change how people view the role of government before we can expect to win elections. Unfortunately I think only going through the same economical collapse much of Europe is going through may be enough to wake people up, and even then I’m not sure. Hardship more often than not tends to make people flee to government strongman, not away.

I don”t think so. the tea party has no where to go. they won’t vote democrat no matter what so the establishment is free to nominate whoever they want because the tea party won’t go anywhere. and the tea party is no where near strong enough to have a say in the selection process. Should have gone with huntsman. Would have had the tea party right, and the independent middle.

  The Tea Party didn’t show up for Romney. The usual arithmetic of “this person has nowhere to go so they are going to vote GOP,” could very well have just died in this election. If conservatives are willing to take another 4 years of Obama over voting for what they perceive to be a weak candidate, then the usual game has just become an entirely new beast.

  my thoughts exactly….Cain took the blacks voting for a black off the table…might have actually gotten all the black moderates and conservatives to MAN UP and finally vote their values instead of their color….
  
  Cain also had business experience and could have been schooled by people like Ryan and Rand Paul on economic issues and entitlement reform….
  
  If he had picked a strong foreign policy guy as his running mate…no NEWT though….he might have had a good shot…
  
  Just think…if the MSM came after him for being this or that position….surrogates could have turned the tables and said the mainly WHITE MSM were just a bunch of rich white racists and bigots…. that would have been great…they would have not known what to do with themselves….getting their trash tactics thrown back in their faces…..
  
  might not have won with Cain either…but would have been fun to slap the MSM around for 6 months about hating a black man just because he wasn’t on the plantation of the DNC….

Oh man, get over your denile guys, you will never have any idea and sadly either will us paul supporters know how well dr.paul would have done in the election because the republican party decided to destroy all their integrity and credibility throwing dr. paul and all his supporters under the bus like we were less than obama voters, so guess what.. we can sit in the filth 4 more years, isnt this fun?

  If your Ron Paul is so great, why didn’t he unconditionally endorse Mitt Romney? I’ll tell you why: Because his ego is more important to him than the people of this country. Or maybe he is just nuts, or both.

  Romney and Obama are no different than one another. BIG CENTRAL PLANNERS.
  
  I never will vote for a candidate that is ok with detaining U.S. citizens even if their name has an R in front of it.
  
  Principal is way more important than party.
  
  Your candidate had no principal and apparently didn’t even have the whole party.
  
  Landslide?

  I enjoy how the liberals think. Yes, choose a progressive “R” and they’ll have a chance of beating our holy one. Here’s the truth….we want a conservative NOT a liberal if we wanted one we’d have voted for Obama. Our country is sick and the MSM is literally the carrier of the disease!
