A tidbit buried at the end of a Romney advisers longish rationalization of why Mitt Romney may yet again run for the GOPs nomination suggests Romney does not think Jeb Bush has what it takes to win the GOP nomination.
BuzzFeed reports:
According to one former adviser, the biggest political question Romney will be considering as he makes his decision is whether Bush will be able to make it to the general election.
Look, Jebs a good guy. I think the governor likes Jeb, the adviser said. But Jeb is Common Core, Jeb is immigration, Jeb has been talking about raising taxes recently. Can you imagine Jeb trying to get through a Republican primary? Can you imagine what Ted Cruz is going to do to Jeb Bush? I mean, thats going to be ugly.(continued)

“Huh?”
I think that he is trying to say that he likes Uncle Miltie and is left-handedly insulting anyone who does not like Uncle Miltie. ;-)

Cruz can speak, and debate, and would wipe the floor in a one to one televised event with ANY of those guys :D
That’s what this is!

Is Romney an arrogant jerk? Jeb Bush can't get through to the nomination (and they didn't even mention Terri Schiavo!) and Romney can't get through to the election.
Is it about running or winning to these guys?

Sorry, but that is Democrats popcorn. While we fight and the MSM pumps our RINOS for the primaries, Dems laff and chomp the popcorn.

Is it about running or winning to these guys? I think it's all about the running, the attention and the money, don't forget the money.

We are trying to get rid of Obama/Romney care.
Last election Mitt couldn’t take it off the table and so one of our best issues was not used.
We don’t need any GOPe dunce.
We don’t need to have millions of conservative sit 2016 out.
We need to take back the GOP from the Rinos, Ted is my man to do that job.

Why don't you give it a rest and really find out who Mitt is. Guess it is too hard. ?????
I think maybe you need to change your freeper handle.

You folks have to realize what Mitt can bring to the GOP, with his proven ability to ORGANIZE stuff. His experience with saving the Winter Olympics from certain failure is proof alone.
With that in mind President-Elect Cruz can put him in charge of the porta potties at his inauguration.

hummmm ... Is reading between the lines going on by Mitt or is this a set-up of the lay of the probable field of battle? If so, sounds like maybe there are some set-ups coming toward Ted, and would a GOPe being involved be offering up a peace offering to Mr. Ted Cruz as a warning or is the other of ... helping to bait a trap, more true? May Mr. Ted Cruz avoid any set-ups, if a set-up is coming! Prayers am wrong .... and no reading between the lines is necessary. Prayers am too cynical.
