The Hill ^ | January 28, 2015 | Jonathan Easley

Jeb Bush’s secret weapon in his potential White House bid is his wife of 40 years, Columba Bush, supporters of the former Florida governor say.

Columba, who would be the nation’s first Hispanic first lady if her husband wins the presidency, largely eschewed the public spotlight in Florida and is known for having a shy public demeanor.

Speaks halting English and hates to campaign. She will be a disaster.

Jeb would be worse than a democrat. He’s a big government liberal, and for an alleged republican to allow Obamacare to stand would guarantee its continuation until the United States is destroyed by the resulting massive debt. No, thank you, I’ll skip Jeb - he’d just be a third term for Obama.

Jeb is worse if the GOP keeps control of one of the houses of Congress. Jeb would become the leader of the GOP so GOP members would feel pressured to support him. They would vote Yes despite the fact that if the same program was proposed by say PIAPS they would vote No. Do you think Big Gov’t Bush II programs like No Child Left Behind would of gotten as many GOP votes if that was proposed by Gore or Kerry?

Jebs spanish is better than blahsio, but just some. The hispano meme runs strong in the GOPe. It is a false meme to play to their vote by special cut-out deals just like the dems and their special treatment of minorities.

“Jebs spanish is better than blahsio, but just some.”

Not for nothing, but a Spanish accent is not a hard one to obtain. It astonishes me that Jeb wouldn’t have a good one.

I know that Spanish speakers are very tolerant, which is a good thing, they don’t seem to really care if you speak their language well or poorly. But, mira! it’s not that hard.
