Here is the full plan

looks a lot like Huntsman's plan in the details except with the added anti-China rhetoric (Trump would be so proud).

With Romney, Huntsman and Obama all rolling out detailed plans it puts pressure on Perry to get more detailed.

Well the Romney plan calls for making the Bush tax cuts permanent, whereas the Huntsman plan  called for lower rates and getting rid of loopholes. Huntsman says his plan was revenue neutral, but it isn't clear if it was based on a 2011/2 baseline (with Bush tax cuts) or 2013 baseline (without Bush tax cuts). I suspect it was 2013, but he probably doesn't want anyone to notice.

No surprise that the WSJ is no fan of the anti-China stuff, but I supsect that Romney isn't either. They threw that in there to add a dollup of populism. They saw how it worked with Trump and China is a great scapegoat (along with Obama). "Things will be great once we get China to play fair" sounds good. Of course it is total BS but so is "if we just cut corporate taxes and got rid of the EPA unemployment would be 5%
