There has been a lot of back and forth between Jon Huntsman and Mitt Romney lately, and Chris Christie is having none of it. The debate is over whether Huntsman serving as Obama’s ambassador to Communist China (and writing fawning love letters to his boss) is a show of patriotism or a disqualifying factor. The Daily Caller’s Jeff Poor reports that Christie is as straightforward on this as he is with everyone else: The fact that Huntsman is running against Obama at all reflects poorly on his integrity: (more)
