La page éditoriale du Globe n'étant pas très populaire auprès des républicains, cet appui ne servira guère l'ancien gouverneur de l'Utah, qui joue son va-tout au New Hampshire. Mais il se délectera sans doute de la conclusion de l'édito du prestigieux journal, que je cite dans le texte :
Nonetheless, there is a widespread belief that Romney's campaign, like a well-designed corporate strategy, is bound for success. But even if Romney emerges as the nominee, it matters how he gets there. Already, the religious right, represented by Rick Santorum, and Tea Party activists, represented by Ron Paul, have pushed Romney in unwanted directions. In New Hampshire, Republican and independent voters have a chance, through Huntsman, to show him a sturdier model. Jon Huntsman would be a better president. But if he fails, he could still make Romney a better candidate.
