He shows up on the tube. He's one of the few rational people in the party.

"He was in and out of the Presidential primaries so fast"

That's right. He found out that sanity is highly overrated in today's R party.

<<<<He was in and out of the Presidential primaries so fast he made little impression nationally. >>>>>

And gee, why was that? The extreme right was looking for their ideological hero. That is why they tried one failed bizarre candidate after another - rather than look for one who could actually lead the country. Huntsman would not only have led but he may have been able to do what neither Obama or Romney seem to be able to; that is make the election about the issues facing us rather than ideological talking points.
