Jeb's invisible man strategy

In the so-called Invisible Primary of 2016, Jeb Bush is the invisible man — and he prefers it that way.

After taking the political world by surprise in early January with the formation of a shiny new political committee, Bush has largely receded from public view, instead putting an acute focus on raising money and building what his growing team of aides describe as a "shock and awe" campaign operation.

Aside from some previously-booked paid speeches, a series of banal postings on Instagram and Twitter and a few random run-ins with scrap-hungry reporters, the former Florida governor seems determined to avoid the traps of the horse race-driven daily news cycle and the expectations game that comes with it.

He’s a callow moral coward. And we don’t need a moral coward in the White House, ESPECIALLY now. We need a real man.
