The so called moderates are looking into Huntsman as a rising star. They figure the fact that Huntsman is from UT, conservatives will ignore his liberal speeches.

If Obama is strong in the polls come 2012, I might support a ticket of Romney/Huntsman. Let these two rich boys waste their money trying to take down Obama and lose.

I have friends in Utah who tell me he was not a popular re-election choice because of his liberal views; however, Utah has changed with all the Californian's who have moved over there, all you have to do is read the comments in the Salt Lake Tribune to see how much and don't gorge the Tribune endorsed Obama. Their conservative paper is the Deseret News.

What my friends over there tell me is Huntsman's father is a very likeable man and I think that went a long way to give this Huntsman cover, but he is a Arnie "greenie" and there is still a lot of people in Utah who are chafing over how Clinton turned the Escalante into off limits to coal mining and put many out of work and did harm to a way they fund their schools in Utah in the process. Would I vote for him in the primary? Nope... but then by the time they get to us it's all over but the shouting.
