That someone with Huntsman's resume was never a serious contender for the GOP presidential nomination tells you pretty much everything you need to know about the state of the Republican party.
Huntsman is prepping himself to be Hillary's running mate in 2016. She'll pick him up to appear bi-partisan which the GOP never has to do but us Democrats....we apparently have to
I might vote for a Republican, if he was running against George Wallace, Strom Thurmond (before he left the Democratic Party), or the reanimated corpse of Mayor Richard J. Daley.
I was chatting with a Republican guy who I have absolutely nothing politically in common with (other than we're both gay men) during the primary season, and conservative as he was, the only GOP candidate he could support was Huntsman.
I would assume that if the two cases re gay rights are decided in the favor of gays, Republicans will rethink their position on marriage equality/gay rights. Otherwise, they'll be fighting an uphill battle to get younger voters.
Lisa Murkowski kicks some serious ass, too, except the Republicans bounced her for a teabagger. And then she kicked his ass as well.
