don't be so sure about that...One Bush was a pretty successful Pres and the other, though I am not a huge Bush supporter, got a bum rap on many things.

MiamiRob, Foridians in some groups may have had enough of Bush, but I know many who would totally disagree with you. Many of those in Fl think Jeb was a good Govenor.

As for Ron Paul, he is about 10 years too old. All you who keep bringing up his name, are you aware of his age?

Apparently Joe Biden does. So why is this a big deal when a Republican says it?

Because a large number of republicans hold a hateful resentment toward black people thats why its different.

I like Jeb Bush, I think he's a smart man and would attract the Hispanic vote, but I think the above accurately reflects the public's Bush fatigue. And it's too bad, he'd make a good president.

Your opinon does not hold water since his "daddy" was DEFEATED for re-election to a hick governor from Arkansas. The "Bush" name is not a guarantee for anything. The Bush family EARNED their office in spite of their name.

I would hope the Bush experiment will NEVER be repeated. They are far too self serving for my taste . While I know most of America is largely ignorant and forgetful I trust they know enough not to make that mistake.

They are more concerned with making sure the evil democrat or republican doesn't win compared to voting for who they really might want to.

" I' don't like the choices but if I vote 3rd party that might make the democrat or republican win and I can't have that so I'll choose a lesser of two evils". " I don't like McCain but gawd help us if Obama or Hillary wins so I 'll vote McCain." I don't like Obama or Hillary but gawd help us with another 4 years of Bush or McCain so I'll vote against McCain, not for Obama".

Sound familiar?
