No press for Huntsman

Sadly, not all campaigns are successful because of candidates' views. It seems that what drives most campaigns is money.  

And it appears campaign funding is something that Jon Huntsman is lacking.

While Sarah Palin's Political Action Committee racked up over a million dollars in donations, she decided not to toss her hat into the ring for presidential nomination of the GOP party.

She continues to watch Russia from her kitchen window instead.

What on earth happens to the money that so many crazed Palin followers amassed for her potential run in 2012? Well, just about anything she wants to do with it. She could buy another $150,000 suit or even rent out a couple more helicopters next time she goes hunting for wolves in the rugged Alaskan terrain.

How could Palin collect so much money, when her only claim to fame was being a nobody governor from Alaska?

Jon Huntsman has not only been governor of Utah and CEO of a major corporation, he has also worked under multiple presidential administrations and has been an ambassador to China.

His résumé is impeccable. Working with Republicans and Democrats alike, he shows moderation of the best kind. He supports a plan of fiscal responsibility and a hard right on economy.

And he leans to the left on social policy. Some say the problem is he's a Republican with a moderate tendancy.

Some say the problem is his inability to point a finger at other candidates. With each debate, I have become more and more curious why the only way to win an election is a scandal or a fortune.  America needs to take note of some individuals with the potential to steer the country in a forward direction or a candidate that has the ability to compromise and understand bipartisan lines and concerns and the experience to do this well.  

Soon, when Romney comes out of the closet as a Democrat in a red suit and the press tires of Cain's pizza analogies, we will be left with the candidate some have referred to as the dark horse for the 2012 election.  

Hopefully the speculation is true, and we will see a turn of events in voting.

America needs the president who ties factions together with the experience in foreign policy and budgeting that Jon Huntsman has proven he has time and time again.
