Heard earlier today that Mitch McConnell (sp?) caved on the amnesty issue when they finally had illegal immigration at least temporarily on the run.  My God, grow some 'nads people!

Have NO idea who I will vote for, sure as hell NOT Jeb Bush!

BEEMER!

The way that I have heard it is that McConnell want to separate the funding for homeland security into two bills.  One for the continuing operation of the agency, the the other for the amnesty portion covered by the President's executive order.

To me it makes sense, keep the operation running without the amnesty portion if the Democrats and the President go along with it.  If they do not, the shut down is on their backs.

They should have started with that position. I guess they did try it without Obama's free handout of OUR Money and the Senate would have none of that.  :'( Bums.

The second part means nothing, just a vote that means nothing.

This seems to be SOP for the new RINO majority in Congress.  What you have; is a bunch of 'high-dollar' grifters shadowboxing with each-other.  You have a mau mau who basically rules by decree, and a bunch of pusses wearing $1,000 dollar suits, too-afraid to jeopardize their own tenuous re-election chances,  Who would, much rather be content, as part of the exclusive [don't rock-the-boat] 'public-relations' driven, Washington ass-kisser's club!  As far as choices go, you only have avowed 'urban communists', like Elizabeth 'Pocahontas' Warren posing as real Democrats, and moderate Democrats, like Rand Paul posing as GOP.  The 'Old Guard' GOP basically, torpedoed the 'Tea Party'; so it wouldn't upset this embedded 'status quo'.  Jeb Bush is a complete RINO, as are most of the high-profile Republicans, including Christie.  All of whom, seem to be happy playing their 'scripted' roles as hapless 'whipping-boys', and congenital remedials, to the delight of our caustic, PC liberal media.

Shit dude. That about seals it.

If one real conservative could just break through...........frack what am I thinking? I still vote and protest. It's tough living in la-la land. Hey my state Senator is an R. That's about it.

Jeb Bush was actually a pretty good Governor. Of course that doesn't mean he will be a good President. He was popular with the Latin community (his wife is a Latina and he was sensitive to their issues). I can also remember an occasion where he told his brother (then President) to basically go screw himself over some policy he was trying to push on the state. People had jobs and he acted in the interest of the state of Florida. For me the best Governor is one that works fairly quietly behind the scenes and stays out of the media. Jeb Bush was one of those rare ones. If he were elected he certainly would be a huge step up from what we have now.

As much as people complain, what we have today is a Political Elite Class that we have created. Or rather we allowed to happen. There is only one way to fix it and it unfortunately isn't by voting IMHO. Which concerns and scares me greatly. But it should. To gain back our Republic we would need an ENTIRE system overhaul and that would be ugly.

I agree, and Jeb has the added advantage of being a two time governor from a state that has chose the winning president every time except one in the last 50 years or so. Whoever wins Florida wins the presidency. Jeb Bush can win Florida in a presidential race. The other candidates would lose in Florida against Hillary. I predict a Hillary Clinton win unless Jeb Bush is the candidate.

Still lots of time for other candidates to enter the field.  "W" didn't enter the 2000 race until June of '99.  I don't think Bill Clinton entered the 1992 race until 1992.

Obama had only barely declared his candidacy at this point in the 2008 race, and was largely an unknown at the time.

Hillary would easily beat Jeb.

Running Jeb takes all the negatives off Hillary like Romney with Romneycare over Obama.

You have the 2 failed Bush economies versus the booming Clinton years where everyone did well.

The slogan will be simple, what economy do you want, a Bush or Clinton one?

The GOP needs to find someone that is not elected and is a good man, maybe a former military/businessman. Thats their only hope.

Levin last night was very entertaining playing clip 12 over and over of Jeb touting his love of illegal aliens.

The only talk host that hammers the GOP just as hard, unlike the fluff Rush and Hannity put up.
