Huntsman Appeals To SoCal Politicos During West Coast Swing
Last week former Utah Governor and Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman officially joined the 2012 race for the White House in front of the Statue of Liberty. He has wasted no time circling the wagons with press and fundraising appearances across the country. One such appearance was at a private fundraising event emceed by OC GOP Chief Scott Baugh at the Island Hotel in Newport Beach. A number of top GOP donors and influential operatives were in attendance to hear the Governor, encourage friends to support his campaign and get a better understanding for his plan to defeat Barack Obama in 2012. Of course in order to do that he will have to stand out to GOP primary voters in what is becoming an increasingly crowded field. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to attend the event and get a better perspective of Huntsman and his campaign.
