By 2016 it will have been 32 years since we last voted for a Conservative presidential candidate.

Bush senior squeaked by on Reagan’s coat-tails, and then couldn’t win.
Dole couldn’t win.
Bush II barely squeaked by against Gore and Kerry.
McCain couldn’t win.
Romney couldn’t win.

After seven general elections where Republicans couldn’t win, or couldn’t win decisively against the likes of Gore and Kerry, the Republican party thinks Jeb Bush is the go to guy.

All goes to prove, you can’t fix stupid.

Post of the month. That is one of the most devastating doses of reality I've seen around here in some time.

One would have to conclude from what we've seen of the Republican establishment during that time, that they don't really want to win.
