Related: About this forumHey DUers, How would Jeb Bush play as a VP nominee?
Would the Repugs unite around a Santorum/Jeb ticket or a Romney/Jeb ticket? Could either be a threat to Obama in November?

(14,177 posts)Jeb would appeal to the thug base except in the South, but not by enough to be a significant factor. Most conservatives in the south would vote Republican regardless of who is in the VP slot.

(28,151 posts)First of all the US still has a severe case of Bush fatigue (& I wager Jeb knows it). Secondly, do you really tihnk Jeb will willingly play second fiddle to any one of these nutcases from the GOP clowncar??
Nah. Ol' Jeb's keepin' his powder dry til 2016. If he's gonna make a run at it that's when he'll do it.

I expect I'll be around for a couple more decades and if anyone with the surname Bush gets elected to office I'll know that we have fallen to the state of idiocracy.
