The only thing Jon Huntsman's candidacy is good for...

...is providing inspiration for a typically witty column by Andrew Ferguson:
Covering political campaigns can be a dull, remorseless duty, but at least the reporters who gathered in Liberty State Park, New Jersey, on June 21 to see Jon Huntsman announce his presidential candidacy have this compensation: Someday they’ll be able to chuck their grandchildren under the chin and tell them, “Yes, kids, I was there when the Huntsman campaign peaked.”

  3. Another loser says that he will announce his candidacy next week. That loser is former Louisiana governor Buddy Roamer. I still think that Rick Perry may announce and win the nomination.

  5. If a Democrat announces his candidacy against Obama, a whole lot more people will know that Obama isn't invincible.
