Bush was an excellent governor, but if he got elected president, I think he’d be weak against the Democrats and too busy “reaching across the aisle”

My sentiments exactly...he was perfect for Tallahassee but is totally unsuited for the presidency. One of the nicest people you'd ever care to meet, but just isn't right for the job he is seeking.

Agreed. He’s actually very personable and a good speaker, much less nervous that W, but he’s just too much of a “gentleman” to fight back against attacks.

Incidentally, when Bush tried to get the bill passed to save Terri Schiavo, it was defeated by a true RINO, Jim King, a fat Brooklyn-born Floridian representing Jacksonville, who was President of the Florida State Senate at the time. But Bush wasn’t even strong enough to fight back against King, so I certainly don’t think he’d be good on dealing with Dems.

That's right! We need a leader not a greeter. Remember nice guys finish last. I'm tired of being a nice guy conservative and finishing last. Adios to Bush, Romney, and other nice guys.
