No guys, we need him to run! Along with Romney and several other RINOs! Think back to the last 2 primaries; in both cases there was one RINO and a bunch of conservatives. In both cases the RINO got the nomination and lost to El-Presidente BECAUSE he was a RINO. We need to reverse the equation this time, we need lots of RINOs beating each other up and splitting the establishment vote and one strong conservative to skate to the nomination.

Yup, thinking strategically.

Thing is that there's another part to that equation: Conservatives need to coalesce, EARLY, around a common acceptable candidate. The failure to do so is what keeps killing us in the primaries.

If Bush running spurs that, then its a good thing. If it doesn't, he gets the nomination the same way Romney and McCain did and Conservatives have no one but ourselves to blame.

It would be GREAT if we had a process for nominating ONE conservative to run in the Republican presidential primary. Even if the RINOs ran only Bush or only Christie I think we’d win it—provided the Demoviks were blocked from voting in our primary. Of course, the RINOs would be only too happy to let them in.

Yes - I sort of agree. Last time we split the conservative vote in primaries.
