I am cool with the thesis, Jeb Bush will not win.

HOWEVER

This is The Daily Beast (Newsweak) by way of Yahoo News... *THE* two most biased internet propaganda sites for the left out there.

“And 2012’s lineup besides Romney was comic relief. “

You know, GOPe is amenable to a conservative winning. But you have to admit, the 2012 challengers to Romney were jokes.

All the more reason for the GOPe to nominate him.

He’s not supposed to win, that’s the only way the ruling class can maintain their membership in the club.

He can’t win? he’s the prefect GOPe pick!

They almost always pick the loser.

George Will today on Fox Special Report stated that the Republican nominee will NOT be a supporter of Common Core.
Bret Baeir then said, “Jeb Bush supports common core”
Will says, “Correct”

Its the wrong question. The question is why would I even care if he could? He is another Obama, only dressed in more patriotic bunting, white, and with a different dialect.
The window dressing issues will be different, but essentially, he’s no different.

He is a nerd. He is like his “establishment” daddy and grand daddy. We invaded the wrong damned country— Saudis attacked us — not Shiites in Iraq. What a joke.

Win? THE GOP?
Yeah, all that matters to the GOP-e is that they cock-block a viable conservative candidate.
We didn’t even get to vote in 2008 here in IN before Juan McCain was ensconced as the designated GOP looser to BamBam’s ‘Hope&Change’ BS. Then Mittens. Next, that fat youngest brother? No thanks!
If the GOP don’t want to run to win, they can KMA and loose without my help.

A close relative of Jeb’s said I should “Get behind Jeb”. I told him after what Jeb said about invaders’ “act of love” I couldn’t.

I told him that Jeb saying that was a calculated way of calling those who oppose amnesty hard hearted and an attempt to make us feel guilty about our position. He didn’t seem surprised or put off by my assertion.

He has very little support.

The GOP has no one to run. Not anyone.

That, along with Boehner’s appointing Gowdy as special prosecutor, spells out the non testosterone surrender.

To me.

If ultra-far-left Michael Tomasky likes what Kathleen Parker has to say, what does that tell the rest of us?

“all that matters to the GOP-e is that they cock-block a viable conservative candidate.”

Which one was that ? Fred Thompson in 08 or Newt in 12 ?

Will is likely looking for a Governor, other than Christie

“The GOP has no one to run. Not anyone.”

You guys are all the same. Bash Bush but can’t come up with any viable alternative.

True. I supported Bush’s war against Iraq, because I thought he did it in order to secure an oil supply. Once we had that, then we could take on the Saudis, the chief backers of 9/11. If they blew up their oil rigs before we won that war, then the Iraqi oil would keep us supplied until we repaired the Saudi rigs.

Bush’s initial handling of the war on Saddam, and the military leaders he chose (working around the clintonoid leaders in the Pentagon) was very well done. But then things started going down hill, and it gradually became apparent that Bush had no intention of dealing with the real terrorists and their Saudi sponsors.

Then Bush ended up giving the Iraqi oil to France and China. All that blood, sweat, and tax money was wasted, in the end, after what looked like a successful start.
