The Bush dynasty comes from an older version of America that isn’t involved in an internecine civil war. If you want to win a civil war, you have 4 options. Lee, Lincoln, Sherman, or Grant.

Slightly OT. Saw Rubio at a NH town hall meeting on C-SPAN last night. Very impressive. Just like a conversation among people. The questions weren’t particularly tough, but this is a man who can sit down and chat with everyday people in a relaxed, open way.

He played high school football. He did a riff on what he had learned from playing the game that was pure gold.

Still not satisfied about his inner toughness, but his electability factor seems very high to me. Especially in contrast to JEB! or Trump.

Come to think of it, ???why??? did they go after Romney regarding that hi way stop place WaWa
was it that he did not know they sold sandwiches or some such utter nonsense, 57 states though that’s a pass. A president who cannot speak extemporaneously, that’s a pass ! (Personally I feel a candidate who cannot express his *thoughts* off the cuff is a huge red flag, should never be elected in my book.) One of several red flags !

GHWB was an okay manager of the oval office. Thank the gods GWB was POTUS on 9/11/01. I found much of his presidency a wasted effort, but he answered the call and for that I am grateful. Jeb! strikes me as a very decent person, but I think he lacks the calm wisdom of GHWB and the fortitude of GWB and would make a medicore POTUS at best. We need a resolute, firm hand on the tiller after 8 years of the mannish boy. Jeb! ain’t the one… along with Kaisch, Pataki, Graham, and Huckabee. Fiorina has larger cojones than those losers.

Thanks, Neo, for correcting that bar code reader false meme. This is ultimately how the MSM poisons to candidates. Palin seeing Russia from her front porch is another example.

Molly NH: His father did get ridiculed for that, but you know what? It was a fabrication; didn't happen that way.

Frog, 7:11 pm — “It matters not that Jeb is a decent and/or honorable man. What matters are the positions he has taken, doofus positions, e.g. on Common Core and immigration.”

To me, it matters not politically, but personally (no, I am not personally acquainted with him). As JuliB (3:45 pm) implies, he has no idea what’s happening to him. In my post, I cited “my disagreements with him”; in fact, what I had in mind there were “doofus positions, [specifically including] on Common Core and immigration.”

We’re on the same page, Frog. A hearty RIBID to you!

And didn t his pampered dad get ridiculed for his utter amazement when a clerk demonstrated how a *bar code* worked at a check out ????
As out of touch as the other loser Hillary.
That baloney she gave about carrying/not carrying multiple devices, we re supposed to pick the appropriate answer, the one that makes her look best (her suggestion).
