Connoisseurs of hinge-moments – those instants at which a country’s future changes – have long-appreciated the 1994 Florida gubernatorial election. Jeb Bush lost. Meanwhile, across the country, his elder brother George was elected governor of Texas.---Alex Massie

It's kinda hard to decide what to do sometimes.  Jeb Bush may seem to have all the right kind of qualities for some folks out there.  The only problem is that he LOST in 1994, when Dubya won.

The right kind of qualities seem to be this soft mushy kind of conservatism that really isn't conservative at all.  Even Dubya fell short on this with his "compassionate conservatism".

They want Jeb because they are in a panic about Christie.  Therein lies the problem.  If Christie is a problem then why is he a problem?  He's a problem because these same people who want Jeb won't step up to the plate and defend Christie.  So, the Democrats can take him out.  They will take out Jeb too.  Just like they took out Palin, McCain, and Romney.

You have to stand up to the left if you want to defeat them.  But here they are surrendering to them.  Again.

Some people never learn.
