In all fairness to GW, I think that Jeb would have better as President than GW... Imho...

[WinOne4TheGipper]

What we need is someone who went to both Harvard AND Yale, so the Left can't accuse him of being dumb. Oh, wait, nevermind...

[ARCADIA]

That would be a mistake. I can almost see a Constitutional amendment prohibiting consecutive candidates from the same immediate family.

Franks/Bush 2008!

[SouthernFreebird]

That man let Terri starve to death, a President he ain't!

[SamAdams76]

Imagine President Condi Rice sandwiched between 8 years of GWB and 8 years of Jeb. I don't dare imagine too loudly out of fear that all of Hollywood would faint and fall to the ground, triggering a massive earthquake.

[Paleo Conservative]

I'm sure if Jeb runs, we'll see more of these signs.

[oceanview]

he is smart not to run in 2008, the US will not elect another Bush on the heels of B43. we may need Jeb to unseat Hillary in 2012.

Libertarian ping.To be added or removed from my ping list freepmail me or post a message here

I really dont know if the country could survive any more compassionate conservatism from the bush family we already got a couple of trillion dollars in extra spending and about 5000 new laws on the books in order for the first couple of bushs to prove they were mighty good liberal democrats.If jeb gets in it would be a great time to short sell every stock in america and then put all the money into european real estate

[Lizavetta]

Frankly, having lived through 3 Bush administrations and been major league underwhelmed with both of them, I have lost the ability to get excited about yet another Bush republican.

[Palladin]

Too much power concentrated in too few hands is never a good idea for a democracy.

[rottndog]

Jeb's just another open borders sovereignty sellout. He is not fit for the office.

[isthisnickcool]

It's pretty common knowledge in Houston that Babs and George H.W. have always called Jeb "the smart one" and they expected him to be president someday. Not "W".

Personally, I was all for Jeb Bush. But it turns out that Jeb Bush is the kind of person that sees a child drowning in the lake but won't jump in to save the kid because a judge has put up a "no swimming" sign. Jeb would point to the sign and say "sorry, but my hands are tied".

And who was it that suggested Laura Bush should run? Lynn Cheney? That's a joke. Speaking of "jokes", have you heard the one about the president accidently milking...........

I'm tired of the whole lot of them. The creepy Clinton's, the Bush family, John McCain, etc, etc. I'd appreciate it if they'd just close Washington for a few years. We'd be better off.

[CO Gal]

I'd vote for him just to watch the left implode. Be worth a lot of laughs!

[Hank Rearden]

Enough Doles. Enough Bushes. The whole pack of them has never read the Federalist Papers or the Constitution. Same old crap, generation after generation.

Broom 'em. Time to really shake up this Big Stupid Government before it's too late to turn back.

[Ticonderoga34]

Do realize that that if Hillary or Jeb is elected President in 2008 that will be twenty four years with either a Bush or a Clinton as President. I think the American public is ready for a change.

[MikefromOhio]

I would vote for him and hope he wins, just to watch some heads explode on FR as well and ONLY for that...

Honestly if he can be the VP instead of the President that would be better, or possibly some time off and come back later, would be the very best for him and his chances, at any rate....

[Tall_Texan]

Jeb would be 59 in 2012. His window of opportunity would be closing. I think he would be clobbered if he tried to run in 2008. He knows this and is staying out.
