Huntsman se recluye en New Hampshire



La realidad está transformando lo que empezó como una ambiciosa campaña nacional, en un esfuerzo regional.

Huntsman ha anunciado el cierre de sus oficinas centrales de Orlando y recortes de personal para establecerse en New Hampshire con recursos más limitados.

Es una buena decisión porque su despliegue de medios hasta ahora no se correspondía con el verdadero alcance de su candidatura. Y sólo puede volver a crecer a partir de New Hampshire.

The New York Times:
Jon M. Huntsman Jr. is moving his presidential campaign headquarters to New Hampshire from Florida, aides said Thursday, a decision that underscores that his path to the nomination is wholly dependent on trying to score an upset in the nation’s first primary.

The Huntsman campaign has been focusing intensively on New Hampshire for weeks, all but abandoning the three-state strategy that once included South Carolina and Florida. But the decision to close the Orlando office and relocate the staff to Manchester signals a new sense of urgency and is part of what one adviser characterized as a “course correction.”

The news was delivered to campaign workers in Orlando by senior aides on Thursday afternoon. The move will include staff layoffs, aides said, to eliminate duplication and focus limited resources on organizing efforts in New Hampshire.
