I admit I haven't done my homework on Huntsman however he did not impress me the last GOP primary. I just didn't have a good first impression.
he is a moderate republican.
Honestly I could see huntsman winning against HRC. he is relatively moderate, at least compared to the current crop of the GOP. He is good looking, and articulate. He has both FP and executive experience.
on paper he is good fit for president. the thing is getting through the primary. he ran a general election campaign in the primaries.

Pretty much. He could probably be one of the best foreign policy presidents in our lifetime.
In the primary, it will just be hard for him to get over the fact that he was an Ambassador in the Obama administration.
Hell, even people in the Obama campaign said they would have been really worried had Huntsman won the nomination in 2012.

I don't see it.
Huntsman would follow in the footsteps of Ford, Dole, McCain, and Romney. He doesn't excite the base to get out the vote and I believe it is fools gold to believe Huntsman would attract crossover voters. I mean on crossover issues there is no clear delineation between Huntsman and HRC.
However in terms of crossover appeals I believe Paul can make a clear delineation between himself and HRC on 4th amendment issues. And because it is constitutional that crossover issue will not alienate the conservative base.

From what I know about Hunstman right now, I could vote for him.
