Jon Huntsman ends presidential campaign, endorses Mitt Romney | The Ticket - Yahoo! News
On Monday morning, Jon Huntsman announced his decision to quit his presidential bid following a poor showing in New Hampshire's Jan. 10 primary. In his announcement, he derided the negativity permeating the GOP primary race and immediately threw his support behind Mitt Romney.
"Today, I am suspending my campaign for the presidency," the former Utah governor and U.S. ambassador to China said during a news conference held in Myrtle Beach, S.C. "I believe it is now time for our party to unite around the candidate best equipped to defeat Barack Obama. Despite our differences and the space between us on some of the issues, I believe that candidate is Governor Mitt Romney."
