A President Bush would continue the momentum and direction of the Obama Sultanate but Jeb is not yet a Moslem, I think. Perhaps he will convert.
There won’t be a Bush III. Jeb is the designated loser this time around, like Romney and McCain before him.
He already converted once to Catholic, I think.
ROTFLOL---good one.
Here’s my problems with Jeb:
1) How is he going to be different than W? The media thoroughly trashed W (undeservedly in some cases) and W didn’t fight back after 2005, allowing them to crucify him without any response. So what the low information public thinks is that Bush was a failure and Jeb will need to somehow distinguish himself as different from that with anything he says being met with “same old Bush” retorts to tie that albatross around his neck. No other GOP nominee will have to defend himself against that.
2) He takes one of the best talking points off the table when we campaign against Hillary - the thought that no family should be given so many years in the White House. A Hillary presidency is essentially Bill’s third term. Do we really want to return to scandal-ridden sleaze running our country? If Jeb is our nominee, that talking point disappears.
3) Terri Schiavo. Do we really want that bloodletting all over again?
4) Several candidates were not raised on the family’s empire and perpetuate the “party of the rich” meme. I realize Democrats already get away with being two-faced about family fortunes but it makes it easier to sell the GOP as the party of average Americans when the nominee came from their class.
