No guys, we need him to run! Along with Romney and several other RINOs! Think back to the last 2 primaries; in both cases there was one RINO and a bunch of conservatives. In both cases the RINO got the nomination and lost to El-Presidente BECAUSE he was a RINO. We need to reverse the equation this time, we need lots of RINOs beating each other up and splitting the establishment vote and one strong conservative to skate to the nomination.
Yup, thinking strategically.
Thing is that there's another part to that equation: Conservatives need to coalesce, EARLY, around a common acceptable candidate. The failure to do so is what keeps killing us in the primaries.
If Bush running spurs that, then its a good thing. If it doesn't, he gets the nomination the same way Romney and McCain did and Conservatives have no one but ourselves to blame.

Wrong. The problem is your candidates stink. In 2012, your guys were the 999 guy, Newt who carries more baggage than a 747, Sarah who refused to run, Rick “I can barely remember my name” Perry, Michelle Bachman and Rick Santorum.
Get Ted Cruz to run and come in second in 2016 and he is your man in 2020.
