Huntsman is an excellent option for the GOP heading into 2016. He has a whole lot of experience from government under Reagan and George H. W Bush, and he has some foreign policy experience from his terms as Ambassador to China and Singapore. He did a very god job as Governor of Utah.

And even more important, he isn't some 2008 retread like Romney, or a hasbeen like Gingrich.

Fixed -I regard 2012 as merely a trial run for him.  He has no chance at winning the nomination next year with the Tea Party still a powerful force within the GOP.  By 2016, it will be a different story.  Already, their strength is being sapped mere months after being so instrumental in helping the GOP win the House as well as numerous state houses.
