Jeb Bush: US Senate 2012

I’m not feeling very well. So this will be a short article. Also, consider this an open thread.

Jeb Bush

Some people have been saying that Jeb Bush should run in 2012, but lament that his brother, George W Bush, may have ruin his chances. I disagree. Jeb Bush has a good chance at winning and he should if he thinks he has any chance at beating Obama.

That said, I am the selfish type. If he runs for President, then he’ll stop fighting specifically for Florida and I want him all to myself. I think he should run for US Senate against Senator Bill Nelson. Jeb Bush is like the Ronald Reagan to the state of Florida. We look back on his years as governor and rue the fact there is a term limit on the governorship.

To heck with a Presidential run, I want Jeb Bush to run for US Senator in 2012!

    Jeb is no different than W – do not kid yourself; he talks a decent game but in truth he is a social democrat through and through.

      In my current cold-med addle mind, I thought you called Jeb Bush a social democrat. This must be a typo.

        And yes Jeb Bush is a social democrat. It is a similar story w/ his brother W. You know the jargon “opportunity economy”, “nation of immigrants”, “education reform”, “American Dream”, “spreading democracy” and all it really boils down to is increases in spending. Do you like No Child Left Behind? Just wait until if Jeb Bush gets in there – he’ll make it even worse. Do you think Jeb Bush won’t support amnesty for illegal aliens? Think again, he is worse than Lindsey Graham. Remember the housing bubble? That is directly the fault of Rove and Bush (and the congress who voted for it too). Now he may have done a decent job as Governor of Florida, but his brother was a pretty good Governor of Texas. Once they get to the District of Corruption (where they don’t have to balance the budget) the spending skyrockets. Don’t be fooled again. Surely, there is someone better to run for Senate in 2012.

    The father betrayed the Reagan legacy and the son betrayed the ideals of the Republican Revolution 94. I would dread to see what the older brother would do.

            I’d have to shoot it a la Steve Cowan (the Briston Palin fan).

    Jeb Bush shouldn’t run. And nor should George LeMieux. (sp?)

    The guy who just defeated Grayson seems really good.

      He would make an AMAZING U.S. Senator . . . but then he wouldn’t be my congressman!

      I think Jeb would do well as a U.S. Senator . . . I would like to see some citations for the above rant by calcacus on the statements he makes about Jeb.
