I was looking at ABC's blog The Political Punch to read what Jake Tapper had to say about Professor Ken Stein of Emory University, and his resignation from the Carter Center. Then I noticed the previous post was about McCain and the Mormons, so I clicked over there and found this.

Political junkies have noticed an interesting back-and-forth surrounding the competition among GOP presidential aspirants - specifically Sen. John McCain, R-AZ, and Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney -- for the endorsement of their fellow GOP governors.... Today comes more interesting news there...

McCain today announced that he has secured the support of Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr.... Huntsman Jr is the governor of Utah, and from one of the most prestigious Mormon families in the U.S.

Today? I swore I had seen this months ago and sure enough I had--in July.

Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr. has picked his preferred presidential candidate for the 2008 Republican nomination — and it's not fellow Mormon and former Utah Olympic leader Mitt Romney.

Instead, Huntsman's office said Wednesday that Utah's governor will serve as one of many co-chairmen of early frontrunner Sen. John McCain's political-action committee, Straight Talk America.

"The governor has a great deal of respect for Gov. Romney of Massachusetts," said Huntsman's spokesman, Mike Mower. "He felt he did an admirable job as head of our Olympic committee here in Utah and is a strong and effective governor in Massachusetts."

But in the end, Huntsman found he had more in common with McCain when it came to Western issues, as well as foreign policy, Mower said, adding that McCain's "understanding of America's role in the world is unparalleled."

Huntsman's decision to help the Arizona Republican prepare for a likely presidential bid comes despite having advised Romney, now governor of Massachusetts, on foreign-policy issues in anticipation of a possible run for the White House.

The governor's father, Jon Huntsman Sr., is one of Romney's biggest supporters.

"It was absolutely a surprise," said Kirk Jowers, head of the University of Utah's Hinckley Institute of Politics and legal counsel to Romney's Commonwealth PACs. "The Huntsman family, including the governor, have been extremely supportive of Gov. Romney."

I guess blogging is harder than it looks.
