I'm not so sure about this. Jeb is no conservative but he is much, much closer than "severely conservative." I know several conservatives, myself included, who refused to vote for Myth but who would reluctantly pull the lever for Jeb.
Bush is a four letter word for Romney.
Problem is, monarchism is not an American value. Having three members of the same immediate family hold the presidency makes America look like a third-world tin-pot banana republic where all the power resides with a handful of wealthy families.
If Jeb truly cared about (or understood) America, he would understand this principle, and would recuse himself from the race.
Many conservatives will instinctively reject this kind of dynastic rule. What was the point of rebelling against the English monarchy if the end result was to re-create it?
Yeb! will destroy the country with Amnesty, and he’ll do it with a Republican congress. I’ll never vote for Jeb.
“who would reluctantly pull the lever for Jeb.”
After he sat there and let Terri Schiavo die? The only lever I’ll ever pull for him is one to operate the trap on a gallows.
