Who do you mean by “they”? I’m sure there are some people who want him to run, just like there are some people who want Condi to run.
I give Jeb about a 10% chance of running and about a 20% chance of winning the nomination if he runs, and about a 20% of winning the general. I thnk the Bushes know they need to lay low for awhile.
Yet the lesson of 9/11 teaches us to strike while the iron is hot. 2008 would be a perfect time for a Jeb/Condoleezza ticket. If Jeb runs, he’ll likely get my vote in the primary.
Bush also thought that Brownie would make a great head of FEMA and that Rummy would make a great SOD and that his housekeeper (or whatever the hell she was) would make a great Supreme Court Justice. He also knew that Sammy Sosa could be of no use as a Texas Ranger. He’s got a real eye for talent.
Exactly how damp is this mop? Is it adequately damp to remove dirt and grease marks easily, or is it merely damp enough to promote mold growth and cultivate a sour smell after a while?
More importantly, what kind of fish will Jeb choose as his running mate?
32% has coattails??? frayed cuffs perhaps, but coat tails? nah.
would I vote for Jeb in primary? you betcha, just like certain conservatives voted for Geoffrey Feiger in the MI gubernatorial primary some years back.
Of course, either one would meet the spec of making a better president than Jeb’s older brother. And either one would beat Jeb in my less-scientific-by-the-minute poll.
Mop is damp with courage, liberty, and american values, and it is more than adequately damp enough to wipe out the dirt of poverty and the grease marks of terrorism from this great world floor of ours.
Mop is damp enough to promote economic growth, and the spread the sweet smell of freedom
If Jeb had become governor the same year his brother got elected in Texas, they would have put him up for prez instead of W … W was clearly the B-Team “prince” in that bunch of royal family wannabes.
Then we might not be in the same sort of mess we are in now; like his brother, Jeb is a Grade-A prick and a bully too, but at least he’s not a pig head and a dumb shit.
When I said in 2000 “You couldn’t get me to vote for Bush if you went into the voting booth with me and put a gun to my head,” I didn’t realize it might still apply eight years later.
