Walker, maybe Paul (He's the joker of the Republican deck), maaaaybe Kasich (though he's a bit too mouthy, prone to say something offensive), and Portman if he somehow managed the Herculean feat of winning the nomination.
The rest are not going to cut it. Christie has too much baggage, and that's just what we already have. Perry is a loose cannon and not very bright. Huckabee is way too mouthy, and what was original a kinder, gentler, yet populist approach to conservatism has turned into shouting at Beyonce about family values. Carson is as dumb in politics as he is brilliant at neurosurgery. Bush is Huntsman with the dreadful Bush name dragging him down, because he has a conservative record but also has a record of advertising it poorly. Cruz is an adept debater but he's a loose cannon and he's smug and offputting, even to people who are normally in the GOP base. Santorum is like a weaker Huckabee who seems hateful. And other people aren't even worth mentioning (including 8ball Mitt, who despite his denial, is still thinking about it because he has time to).
