Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Rick Perry - all finished for 2016.
Scott Walker, according to polls taken right before the election, had a 49% unfavorability rating and 51% favorability. Even though he procured 53% of the vote, his unfavorability is near where Romney's was, right up until the 2012 election.
Ted Cruz still looks formidable.

Cruz looks like he’s ready for 2016.

0bama taking out Christie and Bush is a beneficial unintended byproduct of his destruction of America.

I don’t believe you can lump Gov. Perry with Bush and Christie - they are miles apart.

It isn’t my lumping.
Did Perry sign a bill grantiong in-state tuition to illegal immigrants or not?
Perry may not be quite as bad as Jeb Bush, but he is right on par with Chris Christie, who signed a state-level version of the DREAM act.

Walker has been weak on amnesty also.

I’m much more upset about the constitutional issue than a few million Mexicans.

The GOPe no doubt loves Obama’s amnesty. But they can’t hide behind the issue anymore. Any GOP presidential candidate who doe not vow to rescind Obama’s amnesty with an EO of his own does not get my vote.

Scott Walker, according to polls taken right before the election, had a 49% unfavorability rating and 51% favorability. All most of the country knows about Walker is the low information BS handed out by the media.

Not too sure that this is a bad thing. As a Floridian, I am embarrassed at Jeb’s recent stances especially on “Common Core.” He was a good governor but I think that two Bush Presidencies is enough.

I think the author has it all wrong. By taking this action right after the 2014 elections, Obama pretty much guaranteed that this whole issue will be completely off the table by 2016 and won’t even be discussed in the 2016 campaign.
