Jon Huntsman was touted a few months ago as the “51-year-old former governor of Utah [who] officially announced his much-anticipated entry into the presidential race with the Statue of Liberty spectacularly serving as the backdrop. The highly rated and charismatic Republican technocrat is considered by many in Washington as one of most dangerous dark horses in the race, and is one of the few capable of unseating President Obama.”

He recently served as U.S. ambassador to China. However, his more moderate positions on many issues have left him dangling alone and not getting any traction with the conservative republican base. He has decided to skip the Iowa caucuses and bank on the New Hampshire primary as his best bet, but is lagging in all the polls. In Iowa poll numbers, he has risen to 2 percent at the bottom of the list.
