“Can’t we get Gloria Allred to dig up some skank who was a friend of a friend who was an acquaintance of someone who knows someone who knew Jeb who wants her 5 minutes of fame to get on TV and shed tears about something she wished, dreamed, hallucinated that Jeb did to her 20-30 years ago?”

Of course we can, but since this is a candidate that conservatives do not want, that wont happen until after the primary

Just no. Enough Clintons and Bushes. And, basically, he stands for nothing attractive.

well, we can both agree on that!

Perry did run an absolutely terrible campaign in 08, and if he repeats such a performance then he doesn’t deserve the nomination in 2016. But I say give him a chance, and lets see what a fully prepped non-medicated Perry can do.

the biggest thing wrong with Jeb ... is his last name!!!

A Jeb BUSH candidacy would COMPLETELY NEGATE Hillary’s biggest negative!!!!

I feel like it would increase discussion of why a democratic country has to have these political dynasties and why there has been a Bush or Clinton running for president or on the ballot in almost every presidential election since 1980. So perhaps that would hurt Hillary if the Democrats had another viable candidate. But maybe they don't.

The Democrats have no one really, just the fat old wife of a has-been president.

After her... nothing.

Well, don’t just rag on Perry, give us full disclosure. Who is your candidate of choice?

I don’t care if the article was from the early part of the year, Jeb is rattling his RINO saber now. As for Terry, Jeb just stood there and refused to intervene but should’ve done much, much more. Your point rings true.

I’ll never vote for that piece of crap jebbush. I’ll vote and support a strong 3rd party conservative even if it takes away votes from the GOPe candidate.

No more “lesser of two evil argument”. In a three way race, the Dim would likely win, but at least we would have rid ourselves of the lesser evil.
