Jon Hunstman was not invited to the recent Iowa GOP debate. Why? The official reason was that his poll numbers in the state were too low (2%). But the real reason is because he hasn't campaigned in Iowa at all, instead, choosing to focus on New Hampshire.
Hunstman was essentially punished for not putting any resources into Iowa, which is totally unfair. He is polling at 10% in New Hampshire, has been in nearly every debate thus far, and has a huge SuperPAC behind his back. Iowans need to relax.
Hunstman does have an upcoming 1 on 1 "Lincoln-Douglas" style debate against frontrunner Newt Gingrich in the work for late December.
