He's strongly rumoured to be very disliked by the PCP.
And I think people will expect a PM to fit their idea of what a PM should like like, which is what did it in for Beckett and Miliband, and is one reason I think Hunt is a good price, the other being that, like Major, he doesn't appear to have made many enemies.
I agree that when you consider gove then it's ludicrous that even the tories would chose him as leader and pm. But that's true of all of them. I sort of know what you mean about hunt but again <aargh>
My suspicion is based on a fair number wanting boris but him being unacceptable to too many. Gove is from the same group, is an intellectual/competence giant compared to boris, is a leaver, has been loyal to May ....
I dunno maybe the 'the field' is a decent favorite. Hurts head to think about it too much.
