You still need progressives to win. Utah is not a reflection of the country by a long shot.

Of course they are polling better. Huntsman literally only got in yesterday.

Of course Utah is not a reflection of the country, but it says a lot that he has lost over half of his support in his own state.

I’m not sold that WE need progressives in order to win. Reagan’s two victories didn’t require pandering to progressives or getting their vote. What we need is a fired up base and something that appeals to the more conservative democrats. The one that needs the progressive vote in order to win is Obama.

Huntsman poll numbers will undoubtedly improve, after all, he can’t get much lower so there is nowhere to go but up, but I don’t think they will ever get to any significant level, he’ll always be at or near the bottom of the pack.
