Nothing against George W, but I think Jeb is better. Had Jeb won in 94 he would have been President now.

Are you a Floridian? I remember watching Jeb Bush debate before the 1994 election, and at that time I was definitely even more impressed with him than with George W. I was terribly disappointed that he lost. As much as I admire Jeb, though, he seems more sensitive than his brother. I think maybe George W. can come up with a tougher edge when he needs to, and to survive the hideous Washington D.C. scandal-seeking environment, that is important. I admire Jeb and George W. tremendously, and I sincerely hope that both will be re-elected!

I think Jeb needed the Governorship on his resume anyway and this is where he wanted to serve. And, you know how brothers talk. I'm sure they conferenced with Pappy about each of their political futures.

Re your post #15 - Thanks for your post, KevinDavis. BTW, if I'm not mistaken, Gov. Bush lost in 1994 by the smallest margin in FL history for a gov race. I think he lost by a mere 65,000 (sixty-five thousand) votes, out of over six million votes cast statewide. But -- he won it in 1998, winning over 55% of the vote. (And, between you and me, I think he's going to win this one in a landslide, in a fair election. Shhhh...) :)
