The governor held his weekly get-together with legislative leaders today and health care was the main topic of discussion. As Rep. Dave Clark laid out the proposal legislators had been negotiating, Senate President John Valentine offered some insight on the topic.
"That's right, governor," Clark mistakenly said.
"Not so fast. Wait a few years," Huntsman joked, a thinly veiled reference to the widely held assumption that Valentine will seek the office when Huntsman's second term is up in 2012.
Then everyone had a good laugh at the joke.
Almost everyone.
Lt. Gov. Gary Herbert. Who is believed to have his own idea of who the next governor should be, wasn't laughing.
"Is that OK with you?" House Speaker Greg Curtis asked Herbert.
