Agreed it’s too early to make a call, on either side (I don’t think HRC gets the free ride she seems to think she deserves, either).
Assuming he can beat Crist in November, not sure why FL Governor Rick Scott isn’t mentioned—more relevant in all but name than Jeb, hasn’t made the lapses in judgment Rubio has. Yeah, I’m in Orlando so biased I guess, but the two-term GOP governor of the third largest state, who has never lost a race, seems like a fairly obvious contender.

You’ve highlighted it well. This is yet another problem with the MSM, they are so NY/DC/LA biased. Even today Florida is a hinterland to them. It may as well be as it’s portrayed in “Boardwalk Empire”, even though they actually go there all the time in real life.
You see, not only do they lie to us, on a regular basis, they lie to themselves, daily.
Forget Rick Scott... with Black KKK on George Zimmerman...is giving out EBT and SNAP like it’s Christmas everyday...Scott is no conservative
“why FL Governor Rick Scott isn’t mentioned—more relevant in all but name than Jeb”
Jeb Bush has been around the white house for 20 years (his dad was vp for 8, potus for 4 and brother was potus for 8).
That means Jeb knows DC, he knows how presidential campaigns are run, he knows a lot of big money donors and he knows the staffers who are good and who are bad and the staffers know him and want to work with him. Bushes have connections, friends, volunteers and donors in all 50 states.
Scott has none of the above and neither does Kasich of Ohio who also wants to run.
Scott, Kasich and Christie will not be the next nominee. But if they run, they will all be in the running for the title of “NEXT”. To be next, you need to be former nominee, former vp or vp nominee or 2nd in the primaries the election beforehand or a prominent Bush.
for 2016, NEXT means Bush, Romney, Santorum, or Ryan.
