Interesting exchange about JEB on FB from conservative friend.

I don't engage in politics on Facebook.

But I thought this post and replies all from Republicans was worth a read.

Headline that cracked me up this morning: "Jeb Bush Is Not the GOP’s Ideal ‘Change’ Candidate"

*********** I think that unless she is found enacting the Great Rite of Beltaine under the Capitol Dome, Hillary's going to be the Democratic candidate. It's a very weak field. Joe Biden is 72 and possibly demented. Bernie Sanders is a nice guy but he's 73. Jerry Brown is 76. Elizabeth Warren says she’s not running. Andrew Cuomo is living in sin with Sandra Lee.

because Jeb is a Libberul. I think Jebby will have a lot of trouble with the base, which is what scares me so much about Walker.

The nutcases love Walker because he's learned how to mimic them and play to their rage, while the Big Money Guys know he will do whatever they pay him to do. No other Republican sits so firmly atop the Twin Peaks of Power, and it really doesn't matter that he has the ethics of a weasel, the rhetorical skills of Sarah Palin, the compassion of Vlad the Impaler, and the grand vision of Gordon Gekko.
