The same Jeb Bush whose wife tried to smuggle $10,000 worth of designer dresses into the country?

“We have not seen the end of the Bush dynasty yet.”

OH YES WE HAVE!

This is just the beginning of the liberal media trying to pick the next GOP candidate. They were so successful at hanging an albatross around our necks last year and they want to make sure they do it again.

Just ignore them.

Totally clueless , even in the visible portion posted here: writer has no idea what is going on either within the GOP, or the enormous mass of pissed off voters on BOTH sides of the aisle, and the fringes and the “independent” middle......There is NO WAY ON EARTH the RNC or anyone else is going to foist another Bush down our throats. The age of the Dynasty IS indeed over! You wanna see everyone coming out against Obama suddenly turn and direct their ire somewhere else, which it is ready to do at the proverbial drop of the hat? Go ahead and nominate Jeb Bush or most of those others named. You’ll see it happen.

As a life long Floridian, I have to say Governor Bush was great at the helm of state during a period of great strife for our state, illustrated in part by the fact that no one outside the state of Florida even remembers Hurricane Wilma, same year as Katrina. Wilma was the 4th most destructive hurricane in US history but our great governor lead us through it safely.

I would back Mr. Jeb Bush for president in a heartbeat and know without a doubt he would go down in history as one of our finest presidents ever. I wish he were still our governor, and if he can’t resume the office, I hope Mario Rubio does.

Grab a newly minted Senator or Rep with barely a voting history but with a good camera presence and pair him up with a staunch conservative who’s been around a while. Let the Dems attack and we can point out that it’s no different than what they ran in 2008.

Some possibilities in alphabetical order:

Senator Richard Burr - North Carolina
http://burr.senate.gov/

Senator Mike Johanns - Nebraska
http://johanns.senate.gov/

Senator John Kyl - Arizona
http://kyl.senate.gov/

Senator James Risch - Idaho
http://risch.senate.gov/

Senator John Thune - South Dakota
http://thune.senate.gov/

Gov Mitch Daniels - Indiana
http://www.in.gov/gov/
In 2005, Governor Daniels led the state to its first balanced budget in eight years and turned the $600 million deficit he inherited into a $300 million surplus in a single year.

Gov John Hoeven - North Dakota
http://governor.nd.gov/

Gov Linda Lingle - Hawaii
http://hawaii.gov/gov
Supports drug testing teachers (ya gotta love that!)

This is just another example of the news media attempting to pick our candidate for us, remember McCain.

There are no blue-blood conservative/traditionalists.

Go away Bushes. You’ve done quite enough.

I will sooooo campaign against another Bush. It always irks me when someone tears down other candidates in order to promote their own ... but this is different. The Bush political dynasty needs to end with Dubya and I'll play any part needed to see it happen.

“So now it’s time to see how nasty the old hands from the Bush administration get. Watch them carefully in the coming months. From W on down, the more the Bushies rip Obama, the more they are thinking Jeb in 2012.”

Obama-Socialists have succeeded in shooting themselves in their butt, and are currently finding themselves at the bottom of the Hill looking upwards into smiling Republican faces.

I think the author(s) of this tripe are trying to start a negative discussion exploiting radical Leftist perceptions of Republicans in an effort to place the Obama-Socialists at the top of the hill for the 2012 election cycle.

Starting early again me thinks.
