Huntsman Set To Unveil Jobs Plan Next Week, Leapfrogs Romney, Obama
By NBC News' Jo Ling Kent

BEDFORD NH-- The Huntsman campaign is jumping ahead of the pack and unveiling a new jobs plan Wednesday at a metal manufacturer in Hudson, N.H., one week earlier than President Obama and Mitt Romney's planned announcements.

"Governor Huntsman is going to lay out an economic agenda that would turn our economy around and allow entrepreneurs to thrive and create
jobs just as he did in Utah," spokesman Michael Levoff told NBC News in an email today.

The former Utah governor, who most recently served as U.S. ambassador to China, has been met with criticism -- as have other GOP contenders -- for not having a jobs plan. Huntsman's plan to jump start the U.S. economy is likely be a central conversation piece as he heads into six days of campaign stops across New Hampshire, the state he has highlighted as his top priority in the upcoming primary season.

"He believes its time for us to make 'made in America' mean something again and a Granite State manufacturer is a great place to start," Levoff said of Huntsman.

Mitt Romney will announce his jobs plan on Sept. 6. President Obama indicated he will make a major speech sometime in September.

BIG DEAL!!

Huntsman is a non-factor in this race, and everybody knows it. The only reason the media is giving this guy the time of day is because they want a weakling of a Republican to get the nomination, to boost Obama's re-election chances.

Get a strong conservative, who can do the economic issues and appeal to the social/evangelical conservative crew, and Obama is DONE.

Now you're saying that the only reason anyone supports Huntsman is because they're partakers of a liberal conspiracy to re-elect Obama?

come on man.....really.....

Huntsman is a limp-wristed RINO; you know it and so do they. What other GOP candidate is getting the cushy treatment on the "mainstream" talk shows that Huntsman is, Bachmann? Perry? Romney? Santorum? Cain?

Tick, tock, tick, tock.

He got creamed in the debate and has been getting CRUSHED in the polls for week. The last one I saw has Huntsman DOG-DEAD LAST, with less than 1%.

Simply put, the lefties know that the only way Obama gets re-elected is if the GOP puts a complete sap on the top of the ticket. And, they've found that sap......Jon Huntsman.

His poll numbers are pretty abysmal.  I doubt he lasts very long.
