Huntsman was always overrated and never actually viable. His moderate stance makes him unacceptable to a very heavy percentage of Republican primary voters, and those RPVs who do want some moderation are more likely to pick Romney. Huntsman might have a hope of winning in a future cycle if Republicans reverse their rightward slide, but his odds of winning this cycle were always essentially zero and remain so.
