Take a look at this exchange between John Huntsman and Mitt Romney at the Meet The Press/Facebook debate this morning.
Did you see the look of surprise on Huntsman’s face right there at the end? Surprise at the enthusiastic audience reaction? Frankly I was a little surprised at the reaction myself. Republicans, and Newt Gingrich practically invented uberpartisanship. It has been the one reason why I’ve always thought that John Huntsman will never be the nominee: he’s too reasonable and your typical Republican primary voter is not.
Believe me, of the six guys on that stage this morning it’s John Huntsman that President Obama should worry most about.

He probably would be worried, if Huntsman actually had a chance of winning the nomination...but he doesn't. As you so succinctly pointed out, "he's too reasonable and your typical Republican primary voter is not"...they'd rather slam the ship into the iceberg than abandon their precious idealogical purity.
