Huntsman was the only GOPer that could have won in the general election. He's the only one that would have attracted moderates, which Obama won easily, and his more reasonable social positions would have seriously cut into Obama's lead among women. His problem was the primary. He was even more unacceptable to the base than Romney was. Ofcourse, it was the base that brought us guys like Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock. HTF could anyone vote for him over a guy like Dick Lugar who was one of hte nation's greatest assets in foreign affairs?
I warned about this very long ago. Hopefully lessons are learned.
