Jeb Bush / Chris Christie 2016. HEY...it's gonna be Jeb and SOMEONE. We all KNOW that.

I can;t wait to see how they "market" Jeb. My guess is that the people who are pissed off at Commander Codpiece now are still gonna be pissed off in four years, UNLESS the economy has gone through a MIRACULOUS turnaround.

I do not expect the economy to go through a miraculous turnaround in the next four years.

It's because of the 2012 Republican Clown Car, sure. I guess the Republicans think that the "base" will see the current selection as so POOR that Jeb will be their Mighty Mouse..."HERE I come to save the DAYYYYY..."

(Bush Crime Family) is still in control. Others think the new in town Kock Bros are the new masters. But the Kock brothers put their eggs in The Newt's basket and Karl will easily take care of him. I think the BCF is still in charge and Karl is capable of taking out any and all of the current ass-clowns. The hapless gullibles will more than welcome Jeb "The Smart Son".

Come general election, just remember, the republicons only have to make it close and boom they magically (thanks to Diebolt) win.

And should they lose, they have four years to complain about the stolen election, stolen by the massive voter fraud of the poor and illegal immigrants.
