It begins...
“You will get Jeb Bush, and you will like it!”
Yep, that's the ticket. It's worked so well the last few elections, hasn't it?

GOP WANTS MORE CONTROL OVER PICKING 2016 NOMINEE
Actually, this seems pretty sensible. Our primaries and debates are too stretched out and we never coalesce around a candidate because they’re always busy tearing at each other and not attacking the Dem candidate. Furthermore, that process lets the GOP-e impose the candidate in the end, because all the others have killed each other in the circular firing squad and the only one left is the well-funded, establishment supported candidate.
The Dems, in the other hand, usually have it narrowed down to a couple of contenders very early on, which gives them a big advantage.
They want to shove someone who is well financed and organized (Bush, Romney again etc.) down our throats while our resources are diverted into supporting Huckabee, Santorum, Carson, Paul, Cruz and others.
The GOPe’s gave us McCain and Romney.
How did that work out?
Eventually Reagan democrats and conservatives will form
a new coalition and slay all the RINO’s.
Fight them in every state, in every locality, at every turn.
This GOP is more like the unGOP.
The entire delegate allocation process needs to be overhauled even more so than the calendar which gives outsized influence to pissant states like New Hampshire and Iowa.
Basically, a state should be guaranteed no more delegates than they have electoral votes and this should be no more than about 20% or 25% of the total delegates.
After that, at least 50% to 60% of the delegates should be based on the actual performance of the states in delivering electoral votes to the GOP candidate over the last 5 or 6 election cycles. If this means North Dakota or Wyoming gets three times as many delegates as Vermont, then so be it.
The remaining 15% to 30% of delegates can be awarded based on GOP senators or representatives in congress, as governors, state legislatures, willingness to schedule their primary and caucus dates later and the like.
The specifics can be debated. But the reality is actual ability to deliver electoral votes in November should be worth at least 2 to 3 times what those potential electoral votes are.
Yeah, it will hurt some big money donor's feelings. But it will make way more sense.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Republican National Committee wants to take more control over how the party picks a White House nominee.
Yeah, because you did such a great job the last two times.....
Come on.
Everyone knows the GOP-E will take whomever the media picks for them.
The last Republican candidate picked by the voters was Reagan.
My prediction - Chris Christie will be the nominee, and will be the next President.
The media needs a Republican in the White House - because when the economy collapses, the media and Dems will need a patsy to blame.
And Christie is their guy. The GOP-E will go along with the whole deal, so they can destroy the ‘Tea Party’.
Mark the date. That’s my “conspiracy theory” prediction.
Selected not elected.
It's time.
EFF them with a splintered broom stick
Jeb Bush?! Surprise, surprise, surprise... or is it “unexpected”
