Can Jeb Bush become a top Republican contender? Maybe...

Sure, Jeb Bush can become a leading Republican presidential candidate. It's gonna be tough, but hardly impossible.

More and more, voters want someone with government experience and sound political judgment. As election days get closer, they'll seek more depth and nuance about issues. And Bush and his backers also bring a huge pile of campaign cash and a proven network of insiders well-schooled in politics and policy.

Bush remains a long-shot, and polls still show him mired deep in single digits. The good news? "You're seeing a little of that (some gains) now," said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center, which surveys in New Hampshire, the nation's first primary state.

But, he added, "I don't think it's because of anything he's doing." In the wake of the Nov. 13 Paris terrorist attacks, voters are looking more for a candidate with policy know-how.

No change. Not even a slim chance. If they scheme and cheat and he somehow gets the nomination, he will have NO CHANCE of winning. No chance.

Jeb is goofy at best. He is the hunchback of Nuevo Miami.

Why limit this to Bush? They should ask the same of the others.

"Can George Pataki become a top Republican contender? Maybe..."

"Can Jim Gilmore become a top Republican contender? Maybe..."

On The Five tonite, Rove said that he thought the final 3 would be Rubio, Cruz, and Bush. Eric Bolling could barely contain his laughter.

If the GOPe tries to force Yeb. on us, I’ll bring a truckload of pitchforks and torches to Cleveland myself.

Cleveland ‘16 will look like Chicago ‘68

You assume the game is for him to win. Just like assuming the game is for these two to succeed...
