Oh I think the uniparty pukes get it just fine. They’re just trying to pull out a win. They’re playing for the long term.

If you mean to replace Julia Louis-Dreyfus on the HBO show, then sure (though he'd have to get in line after Joe Biden).

If you're talking about something else, I don't think so. The Republican advantage next time is going to be that they aren't the same old same old thing as usual. Nominate a Bush and you lose that.

Jebbie’s wife is 100% Mexican and he has such a soft spot for Mexicans that VP in Mexico is a good spot for him.

Let him convince Mexico they should provide amnesty for all the illegals coming over their southern border.

Jeb’s wife falsifies customs declarations and doesn’t like to pay customs duties, too

Speculation among Republican strategists is that Bush won’t run for president in 2016, but might be willing to be a strong conservative’s running mate.

Now why in the world would a strong Conservative want a weak democrat as his running mate?

The Democrats nominated William Jennings Bryan three times. In 1924 they tried putting his brother Charles on the ticket as the VP candidate. It didn't help much--they won something like 29% of the popular vote (against Calvin Coolidge, with Robert Lafollette running as a third-party candidate).

Other than possibly helping to carry Florida, it's hard to see how Jeb could help. But with his surname he could probably lead people to vote against the ticket.

If Jeb becomes VP will another son of a Bush family friend, business partner, and campaign contributor try to assassinate the President?

Why Jeb for Veep? What constituency would he bring?

I’m more afraid of the more likely Deval Patrick for Veep—of the other team. Hillary/Deval — Woman + Black—that’s their dream team.
