you only needed 10,000 signatures to get on the ballot in Virginia. If Huntsman couldn't get 10k then he shouldn't be in a Presidential race, no matter where he lives. "Huntsman didn't qualify because he couldn't - not enough support"

Huntsman didn't qualify because he couldn't - not enough support. Why not just conclude he's stupid since that's what you concluded about Newt not making the ballot. People that don't make the ballot are just stupid. Of course there could be other reasons -- perhaps money, organization, etc. .....but lets ignore that stuff and just label people as stupid. ....unless they are a guy we like! Then we dream up other reasons and shield them from also being called stupid.
