Huntsman touts Science in interview! (first 1 minute)

I read about this part of the interview and got super excited. However, if you listen to the clip from the beginning, it is same old, same old when it comes to jobs creation.

Seems to just say "believe science because we will get votes". I'm sure that is not what he believes but he did not say anything in support of science qua science.

My brother does too and he manages to be reasonable about the world. Masters degree in aerospace engineering. He makes it work for himself.

Just because someone is religious doesn't mean they are unreasonable. It can mean that -- Michelle Bachmann. Please spare us -- but it isn't automatic. There are lots of religious scientists.

This is nice and all, but doesn't this guy believe in magic underpants?

That's one of the things he said. But in the process he said that evolution and human caused global warming are real, and attempting to deny them "puts us on the wrong side of science and therefor in a losing position. "

And that's the critical distinction. You will never hear any republican politician say "I don't believe in science". Rather they will say that evolution or global warming is bad science or unproven or disproven. As Rick Parry did.

Huntsman is not an idiot. Perry and Bachman are un-electable, ... hopefully one of them will win the nomination.


I agree on all points, but given the public response to the Republican party over the last 30 years, it seems obvious that Huntsman is un-nominatable.
