Jeb-ageddon
Breitbart ^ | March 10, 2013 | John Hayward

After a week of Rand Paul dominating the news, and rocking the Obama Administration back on its heels, what we clearly needed on Sunday was six shows filled with Jeb Bush launching a long-shot four-year quest for the White House by explaining why he disagrees with the book on immigration reform he just published.

The scheduling is probably a tribute to the aggressiveness of Bush's literary publicists and political team, but the net effect is to defuse the momentum from Paul's filibuster, which stood on the verge of crushing Sunday show producers' favorite Republican, John McCain, into the pavement of irrelevancy. This would have been a very bad weekend to juxtapose Rand and his young conservative colleagues wondering why Team Obama is so bizarrely insistent on reserving the option of drone-dusting American citizens on U.S. soil without due processes, juxtaposed with McCain rambling on about wacko birds. Mission accomplished.

As for Jeb, I confess to deeply mixed feelings about his presidential possibilities. I think the conventional wisdom that he can't win because he's named "Bush" is lazy. It might be an obstacle, but his name may also have asset value, particularly among Americans wistful for the Good Old Days before Obama malaise set in. Seriously, if Jeb runs an otherwise superb campaign, and especially if he's running against someone named "Clinton," are we really supposed to assume that a terminal mass of voters will insist on dismissing him out of hand? Either he'll get past his name in the early stages of the primary, or he won't. Classifying this challenge as impossible seems as silly as saying that it would be effortless....

The CINOs and RINOs used Romney as an alibi to not show up, and now do nothing but complain about something that is clearly something they helped cause.

NO MORE BUSH PRESIDENTS. He should go do something, anything else!

A friend who went to Florida during Terri Schiavo said the evil in the State INCLUDED Jeb Bush in the killing of Terri.

NO JEB BUSH FOR PRESIDENT!!!

I would love to see him fall flat on his face. It is like the empire striking back and I just wish the Bush dynasty/empire would just go away.

IT IS NOT ABOUT YOU!
