Jeb Bush lost 'any hope that we’ll have anyone better,' endorses Mitt Romney

Jeb Bush lost 'any hope that we’ll have anyone better,' endorses Mitt Romney

by Barbara Morrill

Mitt Romney picks up a big endorsement:

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush announced his support for Mitt Romney’s presidential bid this morning, a major boost for the former Massachusetts governor as he seeks to rally the party behind his candidacy.

And along with it, a pathetic explanation for the endorsement:

“He’s lost any hope that we’ll have anyone better ,” said one senior Republican operative about Bush’s decision to endorse Romney.

You can feel the Mittmentum.

Rmoney (Version X) isn't inspiring a lot of confidence.

That's the way it's going to be from now on. They'll never renounce war, Reaganomics, Grovel Nerdquist or the whack-a-loon fundies. They want their Homogenized 1950s (only with Reagan, not Eisenhower, running them) to come back and it's never going to. They're never going to find success with this formula.
