Every political misstep by President Barack Obama and every dodge by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton over Benghazi brings us closer to a Jeb Bush candidacy in 2016 and an unprecedented third president from the same family.
With the 2014 midterm elections all but over except for counting the votes — yes, Republicans will win a majority in the Senate — there is a slow but steady momentum building for Jeb Bush to re-expand the Republican tent toward the center.

Bush = Pro-Law-Breaking (Amnesty)
Jeb Bush?
(huh?)
If Jeb Bush is the nominee, I’ll sit this one out. I threatened it in both the last two elections. I refuse to be the Charlie Brown to the GOPe’s football wielding Lucy ever again.
“..there is a slow but steady momentum building for Jeb Bush to re-expand the Republican tent toward the center.”
If that momentum exists it’s coming from the Chamber of Commerce and Wall Street. It sure as hell isn’t coming from the American voters.
I picture Jeb Bush even now working furiously on his concession speech to Hillary Clinton.
If Jeb Bush was running against the love child of Stalin and Hitler I would sit out the election and a lot of people feel that way. Of all the names being bandied about he is about the only one that would alienate the conservative base so much that he couldn’t win against Hillary.
Moreover, I will up the ante: If Jeb is not the nominee in 2016, then the GOPe will do everything possible to sandbag the nominee to make sure that the actual nominee is a placeholder as well.
They know Jeb is one of the few prominent republicans vying for the job WHO ABSOLUTELY CANNOT WIN.
Brat's win kinda puts a dagger in Jeb's heart!
No need for Jeb. We have plenty of other Republican governors to choose from.
NO!NO!NO! NO more BUSHES or LIB RINOS!
“Obama’s blunders bolster Jeb Bush’s 2016 chances”
BS! Bush’s chances took a big hit when pro-amnesty Cantor went down the tubes.
Mr. “act of love” who wants to govern like LBJ has no chance.
I guess these bozos didn’t see what happened to that RINO Cantor last night?
In large areas of the United States, people have woken up to the crisis created by the present Administration. It is not an economic crisis. It is a crisis that goes to the very continuity of the values, philosophic, spiritual & ethnic of the American people. Those who have woken up, will never accept an outright appeaser of all that has been thrown against us.
Erik Cantor lost because his District was among those where the people in significant numbers have woken up. The process will go forward, and Jeb Bush will become less & less acceptable, as the awakening takes hold.

Cognitive dissonance abounds.
“Throw the rascals out” seems to be the driving force here. While Eric Cantor has some conservative credentials, he has not persevered in keeping up with the normal repair and rebuilding of fences in his district, and was seen as out of touch in regards to amnesty for illegal immigrants. Perhaps Rep. Cantor has a rather different idea as to how the influx of illegals clamoring for citizenship rights was to be handled, but he never articulated this plan to the voters back home.
It would be one thing, if the Republicans were to remake the party into more center than center-right, but so long as the Democrats lurch ever further left, with no change of course. It makes no political or moral sense to seem to be following them over to their side of the abyss.
In order to drive out the rascals, you have to be supporting somebody whom you do not perceive as a rascal.
Cool!
Let’s see if we can get more RINO’s running. Then we can watch them destroy each other the way we usually watch conservatives.
Maybe we can actually get a conservative to win the nomination after all.
Pleas everyone, tell your local RINO to run for president.
HEAR ME CHRIS CHRISTY?
HOW ABOUT YOU CHARLIE CRIST?
OHH COME ON ROMNEY, YOU CAN RUN AGAIN ALSO!
The more RINO’s the better!
Possible running mates include Eric Cantor, John Boehner, Lindsay Graham,...
Geesh, I can’t see how Obama blunders are good for Jeb Bush. What we know is that Wall Street wants a RINO establishment choice and will do everything to get one. So far, their choice keep losing.
They just keep pushing Jeb. Not gonna happen. He’ll have to win without my vote. I draw the line at Jeb or Crispy. Mitt was bad enough.
