Huntsman Web Video: Romney Is Like a Backflipping Wind-Up Toy Gorilla

Huntsman Web Video: Romney Is Like a Backflipping Wind-Up Toy Gorilla

Jon Huntsman is laying it all on the line in New Hampshire, struggling to make any kind of move against Mitt Romney.

A new campaign web video release on Friday shows news clips of Mitt Romney, flip-flopping over the years on various issues: Abortion, gun control, the state of the economy, and whether he was in fact an independent or a Reagan-style Republican.

All along, the clips are split-screened with another bit of video: A wind-up toy gorilla that does backflips.
