Jeb Bush is NEVER Going to Be President

My phone, email, and social media accounts instantly start blowing up Tuesday in response to the news Jeb Bush was going to “actively explore” a 2016 presidential run.

Except the near-orgasmic response wasn’t from whom you might think.

It didn’t come from conservatives, but from the mainstream (liberal) media. Twelve hours later, a Google search for “Jeb Bush actively explore” returned over 3.8 million results, and the first page of entries was almost entirely comprised of mainstream media hits. Herein lies one of the primary reasons why Jeb Bush is never going to be elected President of these United States.

Never.

Repeat—never.

It doesn’t matter whom the Democrats nominate, provided that person is sane and doesn’t vacation in Thailand with NAMBLA. Jeb Bush cannot win. That’s not an opinion. That’s not a preference. That’s simple historical fact.

In fact, you can throw Chris Christie and Mitt Romney (should he be dumb enough to run again) in there, too. They can’t possibly win as well.

Forget what you think you know about “electability,” which isn’t a term but a moving target. A moving target the Republican Party establishment and mainstream media conspire together to affix permanently to conservatives. That’s why they never define it, because what it really means is “someone that would dare challenge our Marxist-Corporatist status quo can’t possibly be elected.”

There is a reason why every time we nominate the person the liberal media lectures us is “electable” we lose. Would Alabama take football strategy advice from Auburn, or vice versa? Would the Yankees allow the Red Sox to determine what free agents they should sign in the offseason? Would Lex Luthor run his plans for global conquest by Superman first?

Newsflash: the people that want us to lose, want us to lose.

He’s the medias selection, certainly NOT mine. The libs know he can be beat and therefore will push him as “the” candidate.

Jeb Bush has the baggage of letting Terri Schiavo die.

Every time I hear his name, I think of her AND his cowardice.

[Twotone]

The only way we’ll beat the establishment candidate is to get behind one conservative early. I’d be happy with either Scott Walker or Ted Cruz, maybe as a ticket, as Gov’s do better in the R-party in the top spot.

In fact, if Walker is having any thoughts about running, he should be contacting people who might possibly run & instead offer them a place in his administration. Run as a team to block the GOP-e.

.....we will need to put our efforts into destroying the GOP and creating a new conservative party.

That is long overdue. The Republican Party broke off from, and destroyed, the Whig Party in Mid 1800s. It only took a few years before the GOP nominee was elected President in 1860; his name was Abraham Lincoln. Time for it to happen again.

“Stay out da Bushes.” or was that Jackmo that said it?

Jeb Bush will be the Nominee unless he decide not to run (Hah!). He will not be President. Whoeve the Democrats put up will be President, perhaps even Biden/Jarrett.

[Din Maker]

Votes will be split among Bush, Romney, and Christie, opening the way for Cruz.

It would be nice if the table has turned. In recent past elections, the Conservatives outnumbered the RINOs 7:1 in the Primaries and the RINO waltzed to the Coronation. But, I look for Marco Rubio, Scott Walker and Rand Paul to hang around and take votes from Cruz. It’s a shame we can’t get a consensus on one candidate because of people’s egos not letting them step aside for the good of the country.

....if Walker is having any thoughts about running, he should be contacting people who might possibly run & instead offer them a place in his administration. Run as a team to block the GOP-e.

Politicians egos will NOT allow that to happen.

[ridesthemiles]

He better not be counting on MY vote.

I’m sure Haley Boss Hog Barbour and his race baiting gang of Mississippi Republicans are ready and willing to go prime time and nation wide to trash conservatives for the GOPE. I really look for the GOPE to behave far worse in 2016 than any democrat ever dreamed of in trashing conservatives.

The only way I see any GOPE liberal nominee winning in a general election is a total economic collapse before the election, otherwise we get another Bush41, Dole, McInsain, Romulan style ass kicking and the GOPE will thank the democrats for it afterwards to keep the conservatives out of power.

The GOPe are supporting Bush as a placeholder for Rand Paul to come inand save the party from the crazy conservative base, who won’t vote for Bush.

Mitch McConnell already endorsed Rand Paul.

“Nominating Jeb would be little more than a billion dollar, 12-month waste of everybody’s time. Unless you’re the GOP establishment, who would rather lose an election to Hillary than lose control of the party.”

Pretty much sums it up.
