As you have probably heard by now, a Ron Paul supporter created and posted an highly anti-Huntsman and borderline racist video depicting the former U.S. Ambassador to China as holding an agenda that is pro-chinese, even using a photo of his adopted Chinese daugther as proof of something sinister.
Mr. Paul has rightly denounced the video, but the damage is still done.
Besides from the downright stupid allegations that Huntsman is secretly anti-american, or controlled by Bejing, they not only damaged Paul by putting his name all over this sleazy video, but they went after a 12 year old girl and potentially did the last thing they wanted to - help Huntsman on the eve of voting.
With the primary in the bag for Romney and Huntsman's political future on the line, voters might just be a little more willing to make the former Ambassador the runner-up to say something against Paul's acolytes and something for Huntsman's foreign policy service to our nation. Not to mention to finally stand up against attacks on the innocent - candidate's children.
They have breathed new fire into a campaign that was hoping for double-digits and third place, while gaining them sympathy from everyone in the political world; not to mention unbelievably free press.
It's gonna interesting to see how this plays out over the next few days.
What say you?
Governor asterisk is only in this race for the creds of being called a former Presidential candidate.
