Carville: "Conservative Alternative" Romney Is Going To Get In And Challenge Jeb Bush From The Right
RealClearPolitics ^ | January 11, 2015 | RealClearPolitics

On Sunday's broadcast of ABC's This Week Democratic strategist and Clinton confidant James Carville predicted not only will Mitt Romney enter the presidential race, but that he will campaign as the "conservative alternative" to Jeb Bush.

"Of course he's going to get in and he's going to run against Bush from the right," Carville said on the panel portion of This Week. "I think he has a strategy that he didn't have before. And his strategy is he's the conservative alternative."

Carville must think that conservatives are gullible idiots like his DemocRAT voters.

WhaT could be more on the ‘right’ than
a continual liar and poser
who imposed ObamaCARE/RomneyCARE,
bad governorship, backstabbing of EVERY conservative,
DNC lawyers => judges(when Republicans were available),
AND even gay marriage by his pen?

Yes. Mr. RomneyCARE represents the EXEMPT GOP.

Leftist Democrats and the Leftist media, (I repeat myself) determining who is to the right/conservative and who isn’t.

From the right?! I always knew Carville was a nut job. But he doesn’t believe that. He’s just dying for the Dims to run against Milt again.

I think this might be possible.

It’s my not too humble opinion that Romney lost because he failed to articulate an adequate understanding of our issues, and the reasons we hold the views as we do.

If he STOPS LISTENING TO CONSULTANTS, and shows us he at least understands what we’re saying, there won’t be so many staying home on election day.

Why is the Left so obsessed with the Republican presidential primary?

Why can't they focus on who's fighting to be the bigger Marxist for the Democrats?

6. Global Warming.
7. Regional Carbon Trading Scam
8. Assault Weapons Ban
9. Taxing Everying in sight via Fees and Taxes as Governor.

Quit advocating for a Progressive Liberal on FreeRepublic.

RAT Romney (the scum who grubered America with
RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE) has NO understanding of
conservative issues (clearly you are with him).

He sees Cruz ascending and cancelling out his ‘40 yrs of Democrats’ prediction.

He’s called Ted the one to watch, fairly recently, but word has gone out not to breathe Cruz’ name ever again except in rants directed to the RAT base.

So Cruz and Palin must be to the right of Genghis Kahn and Attila the Hun?

If Jeb Bush gets in, it is for the left almost a win-win situation. While they obviously prefer a Democrat to win. The next best thing is Jeb Bush who is far more to the left than anyone else considering to run. He also might be the easiest to defeat.

All that needs be done is for weak no chance conservative get out of the way and back Ted Cruz.

Let the GOPe for a change have a divided field, Mitt, Jeb, and Krispy Cream.

Divide and Conquer. Time for Conservatives to do it to the GOPe.

Say What?

Romney plays a conservative against Bush?

Snakehead should have been a comedian.
