You got it.

The thing is, LOTS of people are getting it.

They're awaking a sleeping giant. That's the last thing any politician wants to do.

Jeb could have owned the world. He could have MAYBE lost his job over this -- and worn it as a badge of courage -- and then he'd win the White House in a landslide. People would be carrying him on their shoulders cheering him everywhere he went.

Instead, he chose to be a spineless wimp, and avoid risking his job. What makes this even more despicable -- and more STUPID -- is that he's a lame duck!

His job is lost anyway!

I just can't believe someone can be THAT clueless and still be governor!

You haven't lived in California, have you?

Instead, he chose to be a spineless wimp, and avoid risking his job. Sadly, Don Joe, Jeb Bush didn't choose to behavior thusly, he is following his instincts, and said instincts are those of a politician first, but a spineless, wet finger in the wind wimpy politician. It is that wiminess that endears him to so many democrat voters in Florida. On the other hand, George Bush looks for what is right, acts, then handles the political fallout. Jeb is far different and this revealing trial by fire has exposed Jeb's indecisiveness ... he's so clintonesque! Terri is in such danger now that if the governor waits until Monday to step in, she will suffer and decline anyway, but he will look like 'he tried to save her'. That is political pandering of the worst sort. The other likely scenario is, he will do nothing and claim he was prevented by the courts from acting ... the most likely scenario and the most revealing since it exposes his spineless servitude to the courts, subjugating the executive branch to even malfeasance of judges like Greer and Lazzara. Florida is putrifying and I would set foot nor allow anyone in my family to set foot in that twisted territory. Floridians got for governance just what they deserved; they wanted a middle of the road wimp and they love him. [I'm wondering when Jeb will pull his spittle-moistened fingers down out of the breeze and move to the next pander.]
