Over 50% are sttill blaming Brother George for the bad economy, based on exit polls.

If the GOPe are stupid enough to put a Bush on the ticket during the next 50 years, they are going to hand elections to the Dems.

Let Jeb run and get it out of his system. I doubt he would make it very far in the primaries anyway.

In a way Jeb running could be a good thing. Why? Because when the ventual nominee beats him in the primary they can turn to the country and credibly say they’re not just a repeat of W, not just another Bush. That in fact, they took on and defeated the Bushes and they’re ready to move forward with something new.

the same thing helped Obama in 2008. By beating the Clintons he credibly presented himself as something new and not just a rehash of the 90s.

I hope Jeb does run because his defeat will finally let the GOP put the Bushes behind them and move forward with something new.
