I literally had the same idea that all Jeb has to do is keep it low key for awhile and pow, 2015, fuck up the race. His talk about the "Positive Republican Agenda" also would allow him to come in with a new approach for the Republican party.

Ironically, even still, if this happens it could force the Democrats to move to the left to shift their views from the Republicans and differentiate themselves.
