Let me set this up for you for 2012.
Clearly Hillary will be the Dem.
In Huntsman, you've got a moderate former governor who was former ambassador to China who speaks Mandarin for God's sake and has none of that Tea Party taint on him.
Hillary's resume is pretty damn impressive too.
So I say: win/win. That's a choice I'd like to have to make.
But on the GOP none of this is going to happen if you don't clean house like some of us have been saying forever. Get on with it. Chop, chop.
