You knew it was coming at some point before actual voters put paid to it. But a "Jeb Bush comeback" narrative arrived ahead of schedule today with a Michael Brendan Dougherty column at The Week making the case that the former Florida governor is positioned to take a big leap from the political intensive care unit to the GOP presidential nomination.
Dougherty's case boils down to three points: First, Marco Rubio ain't exactly setting the world on fire as the presumed successor to Jeb as the Establishment Republican favorite. Second, Jeb's super-pac has an awful lot of money. And third, John McCain pulled off this sort of comeback in 2008.
Unfortunately for Jeb, all three arguments are shaky at best.

that’s not tin foil.
Juan McQueeg didn’t have Trump stirring the pot.
“the former Florida governor is positioned to take a big leap”
He certainly is. Look out below!
The Bush’s and the Clinton’s never give up. And they could care less what America wants or needs, as long as they and their well connected insiders hold onto power and get reelected.
Don’t sell JEB short, he could be a force in the elections for president of Mexico.
” Jeb’s poll standings have actually deteriorated as these ads have run.”
Jeb has Hillary’s problem. The more you see of him, the less you can stand him.
Trying to dictate history well ahead of schedule. Same ole liberal s@@t.
Like I said in another Jeb thread today, is he going to get really mad and slap The Donald or Ted with his Chamber of Commerce bible?
He’s got hundreds of millions of dollars for his campaign advisers to spend.
It became apparent long ago, Bush’s cash is trash. He could run TV commercials 24/7 all year long and it won’t do him a bit of good.
No se puede.
It will be repeated over and over. Not that it will mean anything.
Thought the Mexican candidate for president is said to be building a wall around Florida. He is making Florida is Alamo. You know how that turned out.
Low energy, low intelligence, low self-esteem. Good-bye.
Trump is exactly why their playbook for nominating the next Designated Loser isn’t working.
I wouldn’t dismiss Jeb so quickly. He could easily double his support from 3% to 6% with enough time and the right multi-million dollar advertising campaign (one that never shows him or discusses his big government liberal positions).
then he could invade us.
Look how great McCain did?
