If Jeb Bush runs, he will not only attract all of the Karl Rove/GOPe/Corporate-America money, he will also receive the Texas oil money, thereby denying it to Ted Cruz and Rick Perry, whose political careers have been based on receiving it.
However, the more Ted Cruz and Jeb Bush dominate the media, the better for Conservatives, because the only Conservative who can win the Republican nomination in 2016 and then the presidency — Ben Carson — will be able to continue his successful under-the-radar campaign of amassing Republican support. He’s already reportedly ahead in the Iowa caucuses, and has 9% support among all Republican voters, more than any other Conservative.
So get ready for the Ted and Jeb Show to be hitting the airwaves soon and continuing ad nauseam for the next two years. However, the more they beat up on each other and diminish each other’s reputation, the better it will be for Dr. Carson. Let the nonsense begin.
