I will believe that you did not make that statement up entirely out of thin air if Terri Schiavo also says Yeb! was a good governor.

To: MrEdd; proust
I yield to no one in our efforts to keep Terri alive through 2004-5, and at the time was blindsided by Jeb's unwillingness to intervene in any substantive way.

When I wrote what I did yesterday about him being a "good governor," I was thinking about his ability to rein in the budget after Lawton's usually Dem shenanigans, and the way he held the state together during the three hurricanes of 2004, which was the exact opposite of the way Nawlins and Louisiana handled Katrina/Rita the next year.

But Schiavo was one of the reasons I would never have supported Jeb in the primary, and why I am thankful I don't have to hold my nose once again for a GOPe-er in November. I will, however, ask the Trumpsters a question: do you think he, in a similar position, would have intervened to keep Terri alive? Frankly, I don't, and that is one of the reasons I did not vote for Trump in the primary, though I am on the train for the general, because, among other things, I know what Sra. Clinton would have done.
