““looks a lot like amnesty, not compassionate conservatism.””

A distinction without difference.

I hope Jeb gets started early and withdraws early too. If it works out, I hope the GOP is Jeb-Free by June of 2015. Let him get it out of his system, then move on.

“There's a large contingent [of voters] that could support Jeb Bush

Where's Mitt? He's got split those votes with Jeb.

Iowa and New Hampshire should not lead off the primary season. They’re both liberal states.

He’s “another Bush”, and there’s no way for him to avoid this fact. No more Bush’s for POTUS!

Jeb, will win in Iowa if Christy & Mitt do not run.

One lone RIBO Jeb versus Huckabee, Walker, Cruz, Jindal, Pence dividing votes, Jeb has a huge advantage.

Iowa caucuses are not 2 years away. Barely over a year away!

Iowa is even more liberal when you haul fake voters in from Chicago.

Who the bleep WANTS these people???? Step up and tell me why you want a dynasty of weak, moderate Bushes?????? WHERE IS THE PASSION IN THAT? What is his platform? I will do what the Dems will do, but with an R by my name?

I don’t even UNDERSTAND this whole JEB thing. Stumble in Iowa? Stumble from WHAT? He didn’t handle being milquetoast enough? Out of 50 straw poll voters, he couldn’t find the absolute middle FAST ENOUGH??

WHAT AM I MISSING HERE, PEOPLE???

South Carolina is run by open borders pimps like Sheldon Adelson(he’s bought the whole GOP in the state), Nikki Haley, Trey Gowdy and Lindsey Graham.

Id rather hear what Steve Deace, Steve King, Howie Carr (titular head of the New England GOP) and others have to say. Grassley is most conservative Senator from a blue state.

Ayotte is hated and Brown is only liked for his amnesty stance. Brown is his own kind of RINO. Maybe they’ll invite LePage to come across and get involved.

Kelly Ayotte is the unelectable war mongering, amnesty loving neocon RINO who wants 12 million Dem Voters but is so awesome because she voted against a gun control bill that Boehner couldn’t even get 200 votes for.

Be funny to watch all the 2016 candidates distance themselves from Ayotte. Smith, Brown and the other guy immediately said they opposed her amnesty position in the debates when asked what they disagree with Ayotte.

They lost. Steve King and Branstad both agreed on the new slate.

Rand has screwed up on social issues, pandering to blacks, amnesty and voter fraud.

He could be the Giuliani of 2016 — not get enough support to even announce a run.

Similarly, across the aisle, the same ones that derailed Hillary in 2008 will be working for a repeat of that.

The media’s orgasmic hope for a Clinton-Bush match may not happen.

Giuliani’s implosion was indeed quite a shock. Apparently, his team didnt do enough research to find out the actual depth of support. I still think Jeb has the big problem of not having been politically active for about 12 to 15 years.
My guess is this will become glaringly obvious sometime after Memorial Day. The energy or the need for Jeb simply may not be there in great quanities. We need something new to think about, like Walker or Cruz.

Who is running all these Jeb stories? The Democrats?
