Romney lists potential running mates - Yahoo! News


including Jeb Bush.....ay yi yi. That is a sure way to lose votes. I'm sorry...I know that he isn't GWB. But you would think that Romney would be doing what pretty much every other Republican candidate is doing and that is trying to distance themselves from the Bush name as much as possible.
I would love it if Romney gets the nomination and he does choose Bush though. It would be smooth sailing for the Dems at that point.
 
Jeb Bush should be measured on his own merits. He shouldn't be held responsible for GWB, even though I know people will. Bush Sr. wasn't that bad, was he? (I was in high school) So family isn't necessarily the problem.

Bush 1 was pretty bad too...you are probably too young to remember the who Iran/Contra affair. Not as bad as Bush2 though. Bush1 actually had a brain. Although, I agree with you regarding Jeb Bush...it is really hard to separate him from the rest of the family. I personally think that the entire Bush family is corrupt and that Jeb Bush would be a disaster (although probably not as bad as GW - I think GW was the dunce of the family).
