I think at this point, if you say either of those guys is the best for 2016, you’re basically conceding the election now. I think the hard-core passionate base for Jeb either is related to him or works for him. I think Christie is on his way there. I think pushing either of those guys as the safe nominee, after the establishment’s last few “safe” choices turned out not so much, is going to cause a bunch of people to throw up their hands and say “forget this party”. That’s not a threat, I think it’s just a simple fair reading of the mood of the electorate.
Ya think?????
