Well, if Hillary runs in 2008, then that "dynasty" line won't exactly work without them looking like complete hypocrites.

As for his lack of exposure on New England outlets, to be fair, who really cares about what the governor of another state is doing? I don't see why outlets in New England or anywhere else would cover Jeb unless he made national news somehow, as the viewers in other stats would, for the most part, not really care about local Florida news. Besides, he'll have the whole nomination process to introduce himself to the American people and talk about his record. Assuming he does run in 2008, he'll get all the exposure he needs from the nomination process. No need to constantly be sticking your head out, now, with 5 years left to go.

As for Condi first? Well, at the end of the day it doesn't really matter to me. Whichever one of them is the nominee is who I'm voting for, though right up til nomination time Jeb will be the one I support. You got a point about people getting tired of the name Bush, but if a Clinton is on the Democratic ticket, then they'll negate each other.

Sometimes I can't see the forest for the trees -- you're exactly right on the negation factor.

Regarding New England outlets -- nod, not blaming them, just saying I don't get to see a lot of Jeb in general. Not a heck of a lot of him on the cable news outlets, either, if you think about it. However, sometimes no PR is good PR.
