Obama Beats Huntsman by Eight Points

Wow Barack Obama leads Jon Huntsman by a margin of 43 to 35 percent according to a Rasmussen poll. Never mind that Hunstman can only poll 1 percent against the Republican primary field. The funny number here is Obama's 43 percent. When an incumbent can only poll 43 against an unknown candidate one has to wonder what the remanining 57 percent are thinking. The poll asked:


What if the Republicans nominate Jon Huntsman? If the 2012 Presidential Election were held today would you vote for Republican Jon Huntsman or Democrat Barack Obama?
Huntsman 35


Obama 43


Some other candidate 12


Not sure 10


A July poll had Huntsman losing 44 to 28 percent.
