4. W is the 3rd of so far 4 Bush's to run and 2 who won the Presidency

Prescott wanted it
41 achieved it
43 got seated
Jeb wants to win and/or be seated

George w.Bush is NOT stupid. It was a persona created and it worked

Whether or not Cheney was his own person, manipulated things, or not, is 100% irrelevant IMHO, becuase it suited George Herbert Walker Bush41 and his own 3 step ahead plan
(only outmatched by the not counted on Barack Obama.)

Same supporting actors in their play.
They are all showing up doing their role

And Jeb looks stronger to be the republican nominee every hour that passes.

The question really should be-
How Stupid are the voters, the ones in the Bush's own party, and the ones who might
just think and say the Bush/Nader meme that both parties are the same

and then the wheels on the Bush's bus will once again go round and round and round

It could have been 53 straight years and counting, but now it's just 4 and a few months
so we have to 100% vote for the democratic party, and only in the rare instances someone who would 100% when a 60th vote is needed (ala Bernie and Angus) caucus with the democratic party. (while leaving them free to vote any way they choose when their vote doesn't matter).

imho
