I hope Mrs. Huntsman is happy now …

Back in early August, Politico published a tough piece on former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman. The point of the article was to examine what went wrong with the campaign.

By far — my favorite quote from the article was this one:

Huntsman’s father and wife, Mary Kaye, are worried about the direction of the campaign. “Why isn’t he on any of the talk shows yet?” his wife asked in June. “Why isn’t he on ‘The View?’”

… Well, the dream  finally arrived. Jon Huntsman was on “The View” Thursday.

I suppose this signals his campaign is finally on the right track? (Clearly, if there is one place Republican primary voters go to find out whom to support, it’s “The View.”)

Note: Huntsman did make a bit of news during his appearance, by the way: He accused Sarah Palin of “stringing people along.”
