I expected Barack Obama to say something about Jon Huntsman after his presidential announcement yesterday. But I expected him to praise the former ambassador, which would be, of course, the worst possible thing Obama could do to poor Jon Huntsman if he hopes to woo conservatives.

Their motive for doing this is confusing.
