Does the Newsweek cover end any shot Jeb has at the presidency?

It would seem that the cover just emphasizes that we don't need nor should we want any more Bushes as president.

1. Is this the one?

I just did a search and found this --->

2. Yep.

3. No, his brother has already taken care of that. n/t

5. That was exactly what I was going to say!

Yeah, when your brother is GWB and your daddy is GHWB, you should just be grateful that you've even been allowed to govern a state. No Whitehouse for Jebbie, without Diebold's help.

4. As long as Pappy Bush and his band of "fixers" are around...

Americana can feel safe having a Bush in office.... don't you get that from the cover? If anything, it gives him a boost... I mean, what the hell, if he screws up like his idiot brother, Pappy and his guys are there to fix it all and make it nice again.

Oh, joy. :sarcasm:

6. Pappy ain't gonna live forever.

How old his he now?

7. For the last 30 years, the GOP has run either Bob Dole or a Bush on its ticket

Stop and think about this: For the last 8 general elections, the GOP has had either Bob Dole or a member of the Bush Family on its ticket. And Bob Dole was only used as a sacrifice; first as Gerald Ford's running mate after Ford pardoned Nixon, an extremely risky thing to do politically, and secondly as a presidential candidate when the GOP knew Bill Clinton would win; no Bush wanted to be tainted in 1996.

So does Jeb have a chance at the White House? You tell me...
