Here's what he said in 2014:
"I don't know if I'd be a good candidate or a bad one", Bush said at a Wall Street Journal CEO Council meeting on Monday evening in Washington, D.C. "I kinda know how a Republican can win, whether it's me or somebody else â and it has to be much more uplifting, much more positive, much more willing to be⦠âlose the primary to win the generalâ without violating your principles. It's not an easy task, to be honest with you."
Well, he certainly accomplished Part A of that brilliant strategy.
Call it the Common Core version of political strategizing. It don't add up.
IOWs, instead of pretending to be conservative and then going left he decided to go left right from the beginning.
