5. He IS a factor--he's second to Romney now in some NH polls.

He's a dark horse making his move. I don't know if he'll sustain this, but I anticipated this for some time.

A New American Research Group poll shows Huntsman in second place.

“I think this is sort of contrary to the Marist poll and Suffolk polls and other polls. If it’s news, it still shows Mitt Romney well ahead of the pack,” said Griffin. “Huntsman has been waiting for this opportunity, waiting for an opportunity to sort of see his real estate take over New Hampshire pay off, I think Santorum robbed a little bit of that for him in Iowa.”
Griffin said changes in polls happen really fast, which is why Romney told people on Saturday to get out and vote.
