Or, Huntsman supporters aren’t getting the campaign’s talking points. Or maybe they are and this is the result. One accusation that will never stick to the Huntsman campaign is that it’s a cult of personality.

TATLER: Why isn’t he doing better? He had a great record as the governor of Utah. But outside New Hampshire you don’t hear that much about him. Why?

SECOND HUNTSMAN SUPPORTER: I get some Democrats who ask me, you know, why isn’t Huntsman a Democrat?
THIRD HUNTSMAN SUPPORTER: Yeah, like he practically is, almost.
