A Sebellius candidacy would have a serious downside - she is the Obamacare czar, that's how most of the country knows her. She'll get the blame for Obamacare's implementation problems while Obama will get the credit for any good it does because people still have a favorable personal opinion of him that they never developed for her.  If Huntsman were to somehow join the ticket with her after all he's said against the policy and regulation in general, he loses credibility. Conservative KS and UT go for Perry, NC and MO probably too. She's not the draw among minorities as Obama was, even if the TP talk scares em a little. Perry's comments on social security might scare voters in states with large old populations like FL and PA, but so too would Sebellius' connection to HHS rationing and medicare cuts (real or imagined).
I think Huntsman is much more likely as a third party candidate than on a ticket with Sebellius, because I see an opening here in the center.

but assuming just Sebellius v Perry
