(AP) - Jon Huntsman is defiant, even as his presidential campaign limps along. "I don't care whether you're Republican, whether you're independent, whether you're Democrat, I want to get your vote. But I'm going to tell you right at the outset, I'm not going to pander," the GOP candidate told about 100 New Hampshire Rotary Club members one recent day. "I'm not going to sign meaningless pledges, and I'm not going to journey to New York to meet with Don Trump. "There are just some things that I will not do." It's a message that Huntsman hopes will resonate with New Hampshire's state's moderate Republicans and independent voters who will play a prominent role in its rapidly approaching presidential primary. And it provides a window into his last, best chance at keeping his presidential hopes alive - a come-from-behind New Hampshire victory that would deal a blow to Mitt Romney and catapult Huntsman into the driver's seat of the GOP nomination fight. Two weeks have passed since the former Utah governor moved his national headquarters from Florida to the aging former industrial center that is Manchester, N.H. It was a move of necessity. He is shedding campaign staff. His campaign debt totals about $890,000, even after he gave the campaign more than $2 million of his own money, according to new finance reports. And Huntsman, the Obama administration's former ambassador to China, is barely registering in national polls. But he's inching up in surveys here, where it matters most, as he looks to challenge Romney on what's essentially the former Massachusetts governor's home turf. Huntsman declared himself a "top-tier" candidate in New Hampshire late last week. And while that may be too rosy of a characterization, it's true that many voters here remain undecided - and that gives Huntsman hope in a state that four years ago brought a broke-and-battered John McCain back from the political graveyard. "We're all hearing from the national media that Romney's dominating, but as a resident of New Hampshire, I'm really undecided," said Nancy Novelline Clayburgh, the assistant mayor of Portsmouth, after the Rotary Club luncheon. "I'm open to Huntsman, Cain. I like Romney a lot." Strapped for cash and unable to pay for TV ads, Huntsman faces the challenge of swaying undecided voters like her on the cheap - one voter at a time and through the media. That means a punishing campaign schedule. Last week alone, he hosted seven town hallstyle meetings in the state - more than most of his rivals have hosted all year here - and delivered four speeches. He also debated alongside his rivals at Dartmouth College. And he plans to boycott Tuesday's debate in Nevada in favor of hosting another New Hampshire gathering. In some cases, he's drawing large crowds. But his campaign acknowledges that many voters here still don't know who he is. And it's tough to win an election as an unknown. "There's obviously movement in the right direction," said spokesman Michael Levoff of local polls that show Huntsman hovering under 10 percent. "But we're talking about a man who has name ID in the 20s." So what's the clear strategy to boost his profile? His campaign can't say. Some allies have pushed the former ambassador to put more of his own money into the campaign, which would give him more time to meet with voters, oneon-one. They also have pushed him to start running television commercials to introduce himself. The logic is that he needs voters to know who he is before they can decide if they like him.

"They want to turn the other cheek, let God take care of it," said Altiere, who lacked enough evidence on his own to make an arrest. The wife of an Amish bishop who said her husband's beard was cut by members of the same splinter group last week said they decided to press charges so that his attackers would get help and to prevent anyone else from getting hurt. "This is not for revenge," said Arlene Miller, who recounted how several men came to their farmhouse near Carrollton in eastern Ohio and tried to get at her husband's beard while he struggled with them. "We don't believe in fighting," she said. "We do believe in turning the other cheek, but in this case there's nothing wrong with struggling to get away." Two of those arrested a week ago are the sons of the breakaway group's leader, Sam Mullet. He has denied ordering the beard-cuttings but says they were in response to criticism he has received from other Amish religious leaders about his leadership practices, including excommunicating people in his own group. He lashed out at those who asked law enforcement to get involved. "One thing for sure is, I'm not calling the law in against one of the other Amish people or against you people," Mullet said at his farm outside Bergholz, a village where he established his community in 1995. "I don't do that. I have no right to call the sheriff to defend myself." Ohio's Amish communities are centered in rural counties south and east of Cleveland. They have a modest lifestyle and are deeply religious. Their traditions of traveling by horse and buggy and forgoing most modern conveniences distance themselves from the outside world and symbolize a yielding to a collective order. While it's uncommon for the Amish to take their disputes public and enlist authorities, there is no central authority to decide, so it usually falls to the church leaders or those involved. This year, members of Amish communities in Ohio who federal prosecutors say lost millions in an investment deal operated by a fellow Amish man asked a judge to let them settle the matter out of court. The judge rejected the request. Authorities in Missouri prosecuted an Amish man a year ago on sexual assault charges after Amish family members of the victims and bishops came to authorities. The prosecution of an Amish individual was very rare in the rural county, said prosecuting attorney Mark Fisher. "If it weren't for Amish coming forward, we would not even have known about it," he said. It's more typical for police to get involved if the Amish feel they are in danger or when they're involved in a high-profile crime and have no other choice, said David Weaver-Zercher, a professor of American religious history at Messiah College in Grantham, Pa. He co-wrote a book, "Amish Grace: How Forgiveness Transcended Tragedy," after a gunman shot 10 schoolgirls, killing five, inside a one-room schoolhouse five years ago in Nickel Mines, Pa. The Amish were widely praised for their immediate forgiveness after the shooting and reaching out to comfort the gunman's widow. Interacting with police after the shooting changed some perceptions among the Amish about dealing with law enforcement and created friendships that continue, Weaver-Zercher said. "Many people gained an increased level of regard or comfort after what happened," he said. "There's often cases where Amish people become close to authorities, and in somwe ways those walls are lowered." |
