Jon Huntsman’s Clintonian dodge on government bailouts

Questioned by a New Hampshire voter Monday about the government’s $700 billion bailout for Wall Street, President Barack Obama’s former Chinese Ambassador Jon Huntsman dodged the question in a style much like that of former President Bill Clinton.

The question was, do you feel “the whole bailout program” “worked or didn’t work,” and “would you do that if you were president?”
