... the Republican nominee for president?
Meet John McCain, Jr.:
Jon Huntsman resigns; may runRight. We saw how much "moderate views on gay rights and the environment" did for President McCain.

Jon M. Huntsman Jr., the U.S. ambassador to China, sent a resignation letter to President Barack Obama on Monday, the White House said. Huntsman now is likely to explore a Republican presidential bid, according to supporters.
Huntsman boasts the most foreign policy experience of any of the likely GOP candidates, and would be a formidable entry to the unformed GOP field. He had a fiscally conservative record as governor, opposes abortion and is a strong supporter of gun owners’ rights.
The ambassador has moderate views on gay rights and the environment, which would be an asset in a general election but could be a hurdle in the primaries. In a campaign, Huntsman could be expected to point out that he has created jobs in both the private and public sectors. [link]
What we don't need in 2012 are moderate views on gay rights and the environment. What we need is a presidential nominee who will restore America to its rightful place in the world order (as opposed to being a passive spectator of world events) and who will focus like a laser beam on pulling our country back from the brink of fiscal disaster.
We have a president today who, while talking big about creating jobs, gives us the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" and almost forced "Cap-and-Trade" down our throats.
If we want more of the same come 2013, we sure don't need Jon Huntsman. His clone is already in the White House.

And this is why we need closed primaries.
