Letter: Jon Huntsman should run against Sen. Mike Lee
(Alexander Zemlianichenko | AP file photo) U.S. Ambassador to Russia Jon Huntsman Jr. in Moscow on Jan. 29, 2018.
Please, Jon Huntsman, come back to Utah and run for U.S. Senate against Mike Lee.
In this state, a Democrat will never defeat him, but maybe you, as a good “old fashioned” Republican, the kind we can live with, will be able to defeat him. He is an embarrassment to all of us.
So leave Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox alone. He is another Republican who won't do too much damage, and focus on Lee.
