The problem is, can Huntsman develop enough recognition to win? I'd never heard of him until a couple of weeks ago, and I'm more politically savvy than most. There are other candidates who might qualify as "moderates" who are better known than Huntsman.<br /><br />I'd certainly not exclude Huntsman as a candidate I couod support, but I really want to know more about him, and I'd want him to make himself more recognizable to the public. If he still comes out as the most moderate viable candidate come the start of 2012, I'd be happy to support him.Opinionatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332824650892306265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22250833.post-2064246721088431432011-02-07T10:09:24.760-05:002011-02-07T10:09:24.760-05:00Bruce,

There's a ton of time between now and when things will start heating up, but as of right now, I don't see any other candidate with much of a chance of peeling off enough indies to take Obama down. With Obama clearly aiming to tack to the center, your party will sink itself for sure if it goes with a hard right candidate.<br /><br />Thanks for the link.<br /><br />Solomon Kleinsmith<br />Rise of the CenterSolomon Kleinsmithhttp://www.riseofthecenter.com/noreply@blogger.com
