OverviewFour months into his bid for the Republican nomination, Utah's Jon Huntsman is still stuck in last place. What's the former governor's strategy? How long can he hold on? The pundits weigh in. Plus, two survivors of breast cancer share their experiences with the disease and how they are raising awareness of early detection. And we'll preview the local documentary 'Remebering the Faces of Breast Cancer.' Segment 1Deseret News columnists Frank Pignanelli and LaVarr Webb joined Bruce Lindsay to discuss Jon Huntsman, Jr.'s run for the White House and his political future.

Segment 2You've probably noticed a lot of pink this month. From ribbons to the White House, it's all things pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast cancer is the second- most common cancer, after skin cancer, and causes more than 40 thousand deaths a year. But with early detection the overall survival rate is 85%. We discussed prevention, treatments and support with two survivors. We also previewed a local documentary on breast cancer that will be broadcast later this month.
