State education leaders say they'll miss Huntsman

Huntsman was the one bright spot in the Utah Republican Party in regards to public education. While most actively sought to destroy it, Huntsman wisely protected it. He will be sorely missed by the educational community. Hopefully Herbert follows the great lead Huntsman set.

Why doesn't someone do a story on how happy Ruzika and the rest of the Eagle Forum are to see Huntsman go. He has indeed been education friendly, so you better watch out.

I agree with Steven Jarvis. I am concerned about the new guy! It seems to me that a good amount of this state's politicians have been very hard on education.
