| Description | WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration strategy for dealing with the enlarging political ambitions of its China Ambassador Jon Huntsman has become seemingly unmistakable: suffocate him with praise.
On Sunday morning, White House chief of staff Bill Daley became the latest official to talk up the positive role that Hunstman -- a possible 2012 Republican presidential candidate -- played for the president, noting on several occasions just how close the two men were.
"I have not heard or seen any direct quotes from Ambassador Huntsman which obviously would be inappropriate,” Daley said. “But his support of the Obama administration, his support of the president, the things he did on behalf of this administration, and the closeness in which he worked with the president is most appreciated, and I’m sure we’ll talk about that in the primaries.” |
