WASHINGTON (AP) -- Republican presidential hopeful Jon Huntsman says he'd be open to running as vice president if rival and tea party favorite Michele Bachmann wins the nomination.
The former ambassador to China and ex-Utah governor says that every time he's been asked to serve his country he's answered "yes." Huntsman tells CNN interviewer Piers Morgan that if asked by the Minnesota congresswoman to run as her vice president he'd "be the first person to sign up, absolutely."
Huntsman tried quickly to backtrack, saying the answer was based on a hypothetical question and that he has no doubt he'll win the GOP nomination. The interview was aired Monday night.

Michele needs to tell the boy to take a hike. We’re trying to get rid of liberal RINOs not make them the Vice President.

The worst in the race, period. Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman are in a photo finish for that dubious distinction.

he will hold bachmann back.

I don’t think Huntsman is that bad, really. Much like that nice Mitt Romney fellow. I wish them all the best to win the nomination, once they realize that they are in the wrong party’s primary and switch themselves over.

Huntsman makes me ill just to watch his tortured logic while speaking. He reminds me of one of his “good friends” Obama. Can’t watch or listen to either one.
To: quantim
Dont hold your breath Mr. Huntsman.
To: quantim
I’d be open to Huntsman going back to where he came from and shutting up!
