Just watch. Jeb will get favorable coverage by the MSM..while any conservative will be attacked and demonized. That will last until the day he is nominated..then they will tear apart the whole line of Bush’s leading to him.
But, we conservatives make a big mistake..we should have our own party..or nominate a candidate in a pre-primary contest to centralize and focus our support. If we end up with 5 guys/gals against Jeb..well we will get Jeb.
We need to decide,,among conservatives..in the next two years who it will be.

I agree. They probably want Jeb to be a Fait Accompli like W was in 2000.

Personally Im already supporting Rand Paul. He is probably the only one who is willing to make the budget cuts necessary to save this country

While the Purity Caucus keeps abandoning all the other candidates over trivial reasons.

That’s how it keeps working. No conservative 3rd party would have the ability to get the stick out there rears long enough to get off the ground.

How exactly do we manage to do this? Primaries start back East, where they think RINOS are conservative and true conservatives are nut cases. That is why we keep getting RINO candidates, the choice is made for us before we even get to vote in the primary.

Sure he would get favorable or neutral coverage, unless/until he is actually elected- then they will pile on him daily just as they did the last President Bush.

We already have our own party--it's the Republican party and all we have to do it support whomever we want in the primaries. I can categorically state that no member of the GOPe has ever contacted me and threatened me in any way into supporting their chosen candidate for president.

Don't like the GOPe's chosen candidate, DON'T VOTE FOR THEM!!! Plain and simple.
