Kathleen PARKER just told Tweety Jeb Crow Shrub *IS* definitely running

That she got this from peeps close to him, not him, that he might call her after this viewing and say, "Who do you think you are," but other than that it will affect the rest of the Rethugs, that RUBIO would definitely drop out. She then omnisciently said HUCKABEE is definitely NOT running, and that Jeb Crow Shrub "might surprise" those who think he is too "moderate," that he is more Conservative than Shrub, except on immigration.

Whatever her reliability and insight are: gag gag gag. Really, he's been my nightmare all these years in the face of everybody's saying the B.F.F.E. brand is so over.

4. Sounds Like A Trial Balloon To Me....

Testing the waters to see what type of reaction his running will get. What seemed to tip me off is the comment 'those who think he is too "moderate", that he is more Conservative than Shrub, except on immigration.'

Testing to see how other Repubs running will react. Testing to see how the MSM reacts to this non-announcement/announcement. Testing to see how the Dems and particularly Hillary will react.

Now we just need to sit back and watch and take it all in.

10. After his previous trial balloon about immigration

went down like a lead balloon, it looks like he's going to tack right and cater more to the Tea Party instead of trying to jumpstart the "New Republicans" (i.e. the old Republicans before the Tea Party came along).

They'd better sober up the kids, clean up all those alcohol-related charges, and pay off all the cops who arrested them to buy their silence....

I don't really want to see yet another lesser of two evils election.

I'd like to have a real choice once more in my life.
