We have all had those awkward moments in life…..you know like what to do with that free hand on a date…..or after sex when you bend over to get your pants and you fart….or when you are there to defend your thesis to a panel of hostile inquisitors because you are challenging conventional wisdom of the Founding Fathers…….we all have those moments, if not then you have NOT lived at all…….

Jon Huntsman has had an awkward moment……when he chose to announce his candidacy for the GOP nomination, he chose the very place the Reagan announced in 1980, a park in Jersey with the Statue of Liberty in the background….the problem is with Huntsman you could not see the statue and his head was framed by a tourist ferry….awkward!

It only got more so……the credentials issued to the press in attendance had the candidate’s name mis-spelled….John instead of Jon….awkward!

There is more……the press corps was to journey to New Hampshire for his speech in the Granite state…they were to fly on a separate plane……they were taken to the wrong plane….the one they were on was bound for Saudi Arabia…..awkward!

None of these will make or break his candidacy….just some minor bumps on the road to the nomination…just nice to see that even beautiful rich people can have awkward moments just as the rest of us humans.

Like I said…this is NOT a big deal….just shows that “Sh*t Happens!”….no matter how rich or dashing you maybe…..”Sh*t Happens”!
