So Jon Huntsman is officially in, but honestly I just don't see him defeating Mitt Romney in any of the early states, much less winning a general election. There's something very manufactured about him. It's still very early, we'll see. His roll out was very blah.

Rick Perry still might jump in. I'm sure they're doing some internal polling right now testing the waters. My gut says he won't, but the longer he drags it out the more difficult it will be to organize a serious field team, tap big donors, and get some traction in Iowa and N.H.
