Nice try, Jeb. But we've seen this dance before!

From old FR posting:
muckety.com

Steve Schmidt personal relations:
Matthew S. David - protege
Danny Diaz - protege
Brian Jones - protege
Katie Levinson - protege
Kevin Madden - protege
Matthew McDonald - protege

I knew Schmidt was in here somehow.
When mere Stupid isn’t stupid enough, call Schmidt and Co.

Something smells funny.

Danny Diaz, a 39-year-old Washington, D.C., native who has worked for the past three Republican presidential nominees....

Can't seem to recall his name ever coming up as a serious advisor to Mitt Romney nor John McCain. And I'm pretty sure Karl Rove was managing the rodeo for Dubya.

So who the hell is Danny Diaz? Sounds like the GOPe version of Tommy Vietor.

Danny must have driven the van when Vietor was unavailable.

So he knows how to lose more than he knows how to win. The guy who lost to obama. Twice.

Great pick there, Jeb!

[SaveFerris]

Yawn. No way I’ll vote for this leftist.

a clear sign he’s making efforts to win back conservative voters

He probably wised up to the fact that the GOP cannot win without the conservative vote.

I just hope the conservatives are not gullible enough to fall for it a 3rd time -- after McCain in 2008 and Romney in 2012. But the conservatives are persistent hangers-on -- Battered Conservatives Syndrome.

The new staff will feed Jeb “conservative talking points”. Many will buy it and many here will swoon.

[Lurkinanloomin]

He’s been on the designated loser team before, so he knows how to lose graciously.

Jebster is the next designated loser. Only a miracle of conservatives closing ranks behind ONE candidate will prevent the RNC from nominating him.

I thought Jeb’s plan was to treat the Tea Party types like trash and then grab all those moderate voters that the media keeps telling up, who, supposedly, make up the core of the Republican Party.

What gives Jeb...having trouble finding them, or something?

[Jane Long]

LOL...maybe Danny Diaz is really DannyH... someone who happens to be a true conservative. He took a test at work, and scored very high as a conservative, IIRC.
