Jeb Bush, huh? One thing that seems apparent is that the GOP is attempting to cultivate some new brands within the party -Bobby Jindal, Chris Christie, Tim Pawlenty, Marco Rubio, Paul Ryan and even Rand Paul and Sarah Palin make for a strong lineup of right wingers and moderates to pull from. But you think they'll go old guard in 2016? You think Hillary will make a go of it in 2016? That would be an interesting silly season, Clinton vs. Bush the next chapter.
Bobby Jindal was a fail. Chris Christie cares more about Chris Christie than the Republican Party. Tim Pawlenty isn't interested in kowtowing to the Tea Party. Marco Rubio is a puppet with nothing of his own. Paul Ryan? Paul Ryan they're grooming. Rand Paul? If he thought he could make a better run with the Libertarians he'd bolt in a minute. Sarah Palin? She got her 15 minutes, baby. She's in it for the cash. Jeb sat this one out because it was obvious there was no point.
