For some time, rumors have been circulating as to whether former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush will run for the president in 2016. As Bush further considers the possibility of running, hes seems to have realized one thing: the current GOP is completely insane.
Yesterday, Bush announced a game plan of sorts should he follow through and run for president in 2016, according to The Huffington Post. Bush said a successful candidate must be willing to lose the primary to win the general. As strange as the rationale behind that analogy may seem, Bush is saying that a candidate must stick to his guns, which is respectable.
However, for the GOP, sticking to its guns means government shutdowns, holding hostage tax plans that benefit the poor, gutting healthcare reform, and inciting ignorance on Net Neutrality (were looking at you, Ted Cruz). Traditionally, Bush is a moderate Republican. But todays GOP are just as extreme, loud, and obnoxious as ever.
I dont know if Id be a good candidate or a bad one, said Bush. But I kinda know how a Republican can win, whether its me or somebody else. [The candidate] has to be much more uplifting, much more positive, much more willing to be practical, when compared to past Republicans.
As pretty of a thought that is, whichever Republicans rise to the top of that cesspool of a party will do the exact opposite. Since fear, anger, and frustration with Obama won the midterms for the GOP, its likely that the party will key in on those same emotions during the 2016 presidential elections.
During Bushs years as governor, there wasnt a Ted Cruz, Sarah Palin, Rand Paul, Michele Bachmann, Scott Brown, Rick Scott, or Rick Perry. Republicans used to just be cranky, old white guys. Now, the Republicans are loud and boisterous psychopaths. They feed off their constituents fear that Obama will take their guns and pack them into concentration camps.
Jeb Bush can do all the soul searching he wants, but no amount of political moderation is going to win him any massive amount of GOP votes. If todays Republicans are dinosaurs, then Republicans like Jeb Bush are primordial ooze.
Jeb Bush = Democrat with an R by his name.
Just think about it... We have dealing with Bush's for over 20 years now. Ridiculous! Ditto the Clinton's.
Can we get some fresh blood? Good grief!
The left will always tell you who they want to run against.
At least Wallace was out of there before FDR died. He was to the Left of Obama.
So, it looks like the Democrats have their candidate.
Your score from secondary psychopathy has been calculated as 1.2. Secondary psychopathy is the antisocial aspects of psychopathy; rule breaking and a lack of effort towards socially rewarded behavior.
With two scores, results of the LSRP are very suitable for being plotted. Below is the distribution of how other people who have taken this test have scored.
Your score for primary psychopathy was higher than 16.15% of people who have taken this test.
Your score for secondary psychopathy was higher than 1.46% of people who have taken this test.
. Now, the Republicans are loud and boisterous psychopaths. They feed off their constituents fear that Obama will take their guns and pack them into concentration camps.
FREE REPUBLIC AND SMART PEOPLE ON THE RIGHT HAVE TO ANSWER TO THIS DIRECTLY. Ignoring or pooh poohing this WE WILL LOSE.
I have a young skull full of mush, very high IQ, 17 years old, in my house. His interest in music and electronics leads him to hear a lot from the left without knowing it is from the left. He will be voting in the next presidential election. Now, he has me and his father to help him learn the truth. MOST DON’T have constitional conservatives to guide them.
Ted Cruz and/or any conservatives who know what the Tea Party actually is would be wise to start educating Americans.
I’d love to see a speech that is “anti-establishment” from a conservative in power. Laughingly explaining what the left THINKS the Tea Party conservatives are. Having a real mock fest on where the left power comes from (what? Big corporations??), and explaining what the Tea Party is all about. Asking people what obscene names the right calls those who believe leftist thought. None. Reminding them that even in supposedly mature journalistic circles, those (grandmas, rabbis, and pastors, kids) on the right are called testicle suckers. SERIOUSLY, PEOPLE. THE PUBLIC NEEDS AN EDUCATION HERE.
America is nothing, literally, and I mean literally, without her Constitution. All the Tea Party people want is to have the USA follow her promises, her uncommon, unique CORE, if you will.
(Got to run, not time to edit, sorry)
Bush said a successful candidate must be willing to lose the primary to win the general.

Yeah; as long as the Tea Party Candidate loses the Primary and then helps the RINO win the General because it sure as hell won’t happen the other way around. Eff you Jebbie and your gay lover Karl Rove.
If they let us down now after we gave them two strong majorities in DC, well either stay home or vote for the dem out of pure anger.

BULLS**T! Some of us will do that, but, the closer it gets to the General (every election cycle) people start folding like a cheap suit and being the RINOs’ b**ches; even people here on FR.
Here we go people its going to be a Bush/Clinton ticket. They will both lose the primaries and go on to run as independents on a single ticket.
An unholy alliance of evil and stupid.
We’ve actual been dealing with the Bushes for about 34 years.
H.W Bush was VP from 81-89.
But yea I’m just driving home your point:-)
Hey Riverkeeper - how’s that cocaine addiction going? Or the sexual addiction? Or the congenital stupidity?
Without the Tea Party, the GOP has no chance of winning.

There is enough bulls**t on this thread today to fertilze 40 acres of crops. Are we supposed to believe your statement above when November 4, 2014 proves it’s a crock? You think Thad Cochran won without the 250,000 Tea Partiers and Conservatives who were originally for Chris McDaniel? You think all the RINOs who won, won without votes from Tea Partiers? Come on txrefugee, lay down the crack pipe.
In that case, it doesn't matter, they're both tools, so the nation is going down anyway.
Our only chance is if the US Senate and HOR stand tall.
I would never vote dem out of pure anger, and neither should you. For heaven’s sake, under those circumstances, vote for a good third party candidate.
Batsh*t is the opposite of what the Tea Party represents. However, batsh*t definitely applies to the moonbat author of this hit piece. Leave it to moonbats to throw actual batsh*t at everything good and decent and honorable and true. It’s all they know. Leftists are hideously ugly form and in mind — they hang upside down in caves and throw batsh*t at the world.
Cruz had a chance to stand up to the rinos and he buckled under and voted for that pig mc Connell to be the senate leader, watch what he DOES and don’t listen to what he SAYS.
The author is a dingbat.
Go Ted Go!
Were YOU right about the midterms? Uh, NO. You predicted we would NOT regain the Senate.
I would vote for a third party candidate if it’s jeb vs hillary.
And we’re psychopaths with.....all those guns! OMG!
Anyone who writes with an `RFK JR’ byline is already certifiable & not really qualified to be judging the sanity of others.
