1. Satan

[yuiyoshida]

21. Satan can't run...

HE is from Slovakia!

[RiverLover]

2. John Kasich

[Johonny]

3. David H. Koch

whoever runs, it is clear that your really voting for him.

[Renew Deal]

8. I agree

[hifiguy]

33. This. The Kochtopus is the ultimate puppetmaster.

[Takket]

4. i said bush...

I think they really WANT Cruz or Walker, but will settle for bush

[Renew Deal]

5. Wow

And I think popular wisdom on DU is right about this.

[ChosenUnWisely]

6. Who Cares! If Hillary is so wonderful she will beat whomever they nominiate, right?

[Renew Deal]

7. That's what polls say right now

But your hard work at helping a Democrat is appreciated.

[ChosenUnWisely]

9. as long as the Democrat is not Hillary or Conservative or Moderate or Third Way the Dem gets my

support and vote.

Hillary gets bupkis from me and a bunch of other folks I know too.

[Renew Deal]

10. I guess some people haven't learned from the 2000 Bush election.

Might as well try again right?

[Agschmid]

11. Nope they haven't.

Awkward right?

[MohRokTah]

19. Your chosen name describes your strategy in national elections. eom

[demigoddess]

29. in other words, you vote for the republicans by default

I vote for any democrat over any republican. We need a democrat in the WH and more.

[ChosenUnWisely]

32. Yeah that is exactly what I do, I go out and vote for republicans just to piss of democrats

[Bluenorthwest]

12. A corrupt conservative.

13. What is it about the Bushes?

To Republicans their fecal matter must be superb, a sweet but piquant flavor with a hint of exotic simian tang.

[longship]

14. The more that run, the better.

And the sooner they commit, the better. Fill the clown car up early and keep piling more into the GOP vehicle. Make sure they continue to spout their theocratic missives.

The best thing for a Dem candidate front runner to do is to announce in January, 2016, or even later. No need to hurry things when the clown car is doing everything you want. Let them spew their bullshitza.

Snagglepuss said it best, "Self-inflicted Bar-B-Que. They cooked their own goose."

Exit stage left.

[underpants]

15. "Hillary" vs. "Jeb"

I think they both stay away from last names due some high priced branding consultant advice.

[lpbk2713]

16. Rubio will be a veep nominee, not sure who's.

Most will see him as not ready for prime time.

[PAProgressive28]

17. I don't think Jeb is that serious

Christie could be in jail. Mittens is riding his car elevator. I'm starting to think it's going to be the Koch's boy Walker.

[Nye Bevan]

20. Oh, Jeb is absolutely, 100% serious, as are many sibling rivalries (nt)

[PAProgressive28]

23. I believe he will run

I don't believe he has a maniacal desire to be President like Willard. He's not going to give 100%.

[MohRokTah]

18. Walker doesn't have the fund raising network.

Jeb Bush is the only member of the GOP Kandidate Klown Kar capable of raising the money necessary.

[Beaverhausen]

22. I thought he is the favorite of the Koch Brothers?

[MohRokTah]

25. They are limited in the amount of money they can direcly donate to the campaign.

Their influence is great, but the money they spend will not have anywhere near as big an effect on the outcome as money spent directly by the campaign itself, and that requires a large fundraising network.

[Renew Deal]

24. Isn't Walker a Koch puppet?

That said, I wonder if the Bush family will let him get anywhere.

[MohRokTah]

26. See post # 25. eom

[demigoddess]

27. They will play it safe with Bush

[hrmjustin]

28. I think Scott Walker will win the nomination and lose the Hillary.

[The empressof all]

30. It will be a Bush/Walker or Bush/Kasich ticket

Rand Paul will run as Libertarian and siphon off conservatives.

If Hillary wants to insure a win she will enlist John Huntsman in some way. I don't think he will be her VP but his endorsement and potential cabinet post will carry weight in creating a "Building Bridges" flavor to her agenda.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

31. Maybe a corporation will seek the Republican nomination - they're people, after all

[Octafish]

34. A Criminal.

All of the Above.
