I think some of you people need a life.

So what they are just meeting. Don't think that means he is going to be vice-president.

Jeb Bush is not his brother and Sen. McCain is not George Bush. Just because Bush was a bad president doesn't mean his brother was a bad governor or McCain would be a bad president. Give Sen. McCain a change and maybe I will give Obama a chance.

It's all the hatefulness from Obama supporters that is making me not want to vote for him.

Gov. Jeb Bush will be a great VP choice for Sen. McCain in order to ensure that the "B" dynasty will continue! I hope Marverick McCain ignores any advice against such choice, so that that American can see the possibility for the return of "Terminator 3″ in a different incarnation. Come November it will be very interesting to see if majority of the voters do forget their brains on their beds before going to vote or if they allow it to join them while voting and perform the most basic function?

Who cares? There's never enough money in my check, groceries are getting too expensive, and gasoline - well, you get the point. I personally do not care who endorses who, and will not waste my time reading too much into these things. Let's keep our focus narrowed on what matters: Issue #1

To JW - No, I don't think they do "get it". If they did, this country wouldn't be in such an incredible mess. But then, what else do you expect of the GOP (Gross Old Panderers)?

Run, Jeb, run! Please be McCain's VP choice! If so, this election is a wrap for sure.

I love CNN! I tell you, a lot of times you all do more harm than good. McCain's biggest challenge is trying to separate himself from George Bush. He's claiming that he won't be a protege (anyone with a 1/5th of a brain knows that's a lie). So don't you think that perhaps posting an article that says the old fart will be meeting with Bushy-wushy's baby brother might contradict what he's trying to accomplish???

Great job CNN! Keep handing over votes to Obama!!!

OBAMA '08!!!

I would be so happy if the entire Bush family packed up and move to South America. And maybe they could take McCain with them.

Anyone who would even fathom voting for a McCain/Bush ticket should have their citizenship stripped from them immediately.

NO MORE BUSH's EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It will take decades, if that, to recover from the one we have now.

Yeah, we *know* why Jeb met with McCain so far away from our homeland. To discuss what Jeb's great state of Florida could do to rig another election in favor of another (gasp!) Republican. Does anyone doubt this? Hello…..McBush is an apt description. I smell collusion.

Does Jeb Bush race in NASCAR now?

Some fool in McCain's cluster actually thinks Jeb Bush would enhance McCain's chances to win in November?

These folks have a shorter memory than they think the Americans have!

Posted earlier by DEB -

"HILLARY DEMOCRAT FOR MCCAIN YOU GO JOHN
MCCAIN/JEB BUSH 08″

Does this make sense to anyone?

Jeb Bush & McCain, in this political enviroment …I cannot see how that could work. If it did happen I would say McCain would have more guts than anyone running for office in decades. The democrates may
not have to much to worry about this election , since McCain has not even got the Conservatives on board. Added note here to shock all of you, is I like Bush, yep…President Bush. I wanted to give all of you something to complain about for the next 20 pages. I think he is an honest player. Any mistakes made, will only be really ferreted out in history along with the good. But the future will surprise all of you. That is the good news. I have stopped disliking Clinton. It is amazing that Bush had two major African Americans in the Whitehouse and the Democrates think they are the only ones who advance blacks. I think they hold these wonderful people down to make sure they will vote for their party only…so be it. They may one day get off those chains as well. I had to encourage a Clinton suppoted who came by the house that both Barack & Hilary will win on or lose on their merit not anything else. I said everyone I know has moved on beyond race & gender. She was afraid Obama would get it and not Hilary. Life is never dull is it.

That's right, you LIBERALS! McCain/Bush '08 ALL THE WAY.

W has made all them terrorists FEAR us and they should. Your going to have to accept that HUSSEIN OBAMA is dangerous and we NEED strong and agresive tactics against the people out to get us.

MCAIN ALL THE WAY!!!!!

Heeere' s Jeb….the President's choice to succeed him. Looks like the candidates for Repulican ticket will planning their agenda in a place far, far away.

It has been roomered that they ( bushs and Rep) want to groom Jeb for a Pres. run. What would be better than to take him as VP and then have him run in 4 yrs. He is pretty well liked in FL. a key state. Could be interesting.

Please Mccain pick Jeb Bush as your running mate.

Hillary supporter for McCain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since McCain can't gain a majority of American votes, maybe Jeb and he can help document Mexicans to vote as Americans. This would put another Mac to work–McGruff! Remember McGruff is the real Mac who promises to take a bite out of crime–illegals' fraud and identity theft.

Strategically questionable decision when you are trying to separate yourself from the Bush legacy…

Not the time to be using more worn out old parts. The American machine needs to be overhauled with new power and shiny buff.

Don't need Uncle Jeb, Grandpa's Busch or McCain, all they do is go behind closed doors to plan their mixed up messages with their new busch campaign guy.

GObama 08 and12

Birds of a feather…

Another Bush = another crook! Who cares what ol jeb has to say! As far as I'm concerned, he can stay in Mexico. But, I am sorry for the people of Mexico.

Keep your eyes on the ballot boxes where is Kathleen Harrris?

Jan/Michigan: No Jan, we do not need to get paid to "smear" Republican bloggers, you guys do a good enough job on your own. If the people of FL and this country want to see more of the same failed policies and a crappy economy then vote Republican. I don't think FL will let Mcsame/Bush get elected though. Not this time!!

no hezbollah terrorist fist bumps at this meeting. great match up!
vote mccain '08!

McCain even AGREEING to meet with Jeb Bush at this point, at ANY point, speaks to his COMPLETE lack of sound judgment…if he can't even run his own campaign judiciously, this is just further proof of how well he would NOT run this country. But keep making those bad decisions McCain…John and Jeb, formula for disaster.
OBAMA '08 and '12
YES WE CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep saddling yourself with the Bush legacy, McSham; that'll get you elected alright!

JEB BUSH BY McCAIN'S SIDE WILL END McCAIN'S BID FOR THE WHITE HOUSE. . THIS BUSH HAS PRESIDENTIAL AMBITIONS TOO, UNFORTUNATELY, NO AMERICAN IN HIS RIGHT MIND WILL HAVE ANOTHER BUSH AS PRESIDENT.

It won't be long and the Obama bloggers will have CNN all to themselves. Then they can just talk to themselves all day long until the Election. By then it will be too late to hear anything but their own voices.

If you think just because we have become silent that we are gone from the political scene, think again, We are still out here and ready to vote for John McCain in droves. Just remember "if a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, does it mean it didn't really fall'? We do not hear you anymore, you are just talking to yourselves.

Watch out for falling trees!

Surely McCain wouldn't be so stupid as to put Jeb Bush on the ticket.
Naw, I think he's asking for ways to screw with the Florida vote. In return, you'll see old Jeb in some high profile office in Washington if McCain wins. God, I just wish the entire Bush clan would go away and count their ill gotten money and leave the rest of the world alone. (Oh, wait, George Bush can't count that high, can he?)

The Basilica of the Virgin of Guadalupe…now THERE'S a campaign issue!

Jeb Bush can add nothing to John McCain's campaign. the Bush name is tarnished.

Continue the cycle of corruption. Look at the current housing industry failure in Florida it started under Bush and continues under crisp. The housing market specifically was targeted in Florida totally exploited from the top down. Greed!!!

A true leader would have seen thru the sales pitch of ( Look at all the additional revenue all the state and local governmental agencies will have coming in due to increased property taxes, sounds good and it was a easy sell) Until speculators drove the prices out of reach of average people. those same tax roles failures are causing police officers, teachers and various other local governmental layoff's here in Florida. There has to be a crime here someone please find it.

A memo was e-mail out for forced early retirements, "Retire or be fired" McCain PLEASE, PLEASE go retire to one of those 7 homes you are able to afford , talk about a elitism mind set

Obama / Powell 08.

to Deb: I hope you realize when you are voting for MCcain you are putting womens rights back years…My condolences on Hillary's run. I just hope you think this one out when voting for MCcain

Why would McCain pubilcize a meeting with Jeb? I suppose that is a lot better than a secret meeting with Jeb. So why meet face to face with Jeb at all when the Bush name is so incorrect of late? Is this how McCain "distances" himself from George?

Just another case of John McBush distancing himself from Bush. I hope we get a picture of John McBush and Jeb hugging also for the family album.I think John McBush can not have his cake and eat it too, this is just anther nail in the coffin he will be a third Bush term, people wake up.
Barack Hussein Obama 08

Connie from Indiana

I will be so glad to see the Bush family out of the news and on to bigger and better things. I mean the Bush dudes. They have caused enought damage.

So now McCain has former Bush people running his campaign, and Jeb Bush crawling out from under his rock, very interesting. Looks like he really is running for George Bush's third term.

Shannon
Independent

I've had more than enough of this family dictating how I live. They have been in power since 1980 and I've had enough. No respect for any Bush's here.

> HILLARY DEMOCRAT FOR MCCAIN YOU GO JOHN

You must be the biggest idiot in the world if you believe that anyone here thinks you are anything but a Republican troll. Hope you enjoy your reproductive rights because you can kiss them goodbye.

At least this Bush won't drill off the coast here. He knows what is at stake for this state as far as tourism goes. I am a proud Obama supporter.

PUHLEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ, WE NEED A FEW DECADES REST FROM THE BUSHES. SERIOUSLY.

DUBYA(Nuff Sedd)
JEB (Actually, fairly intelligent)
MARVIN (Former head of Security company of WTC)
NEIL (Silverado S/L Scandal)

I MEAN, WHEN WILL WE GET IT?

More of the same.

America, meet McCain's VP pick, another Bush! The Republican
party's love affair with the Bushs' goes on!

As Mr Bill would said from SNL "OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

sorry mcshame you will not win this november. please please go home crook/oilpatch. obama 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jet bush is another bush

This is the man that Pres Bush hopes to continue the dynasty with after McShame. No thanks, Florida has caused enough trouble the past 2 elections! I don't care what either Bush or McBush has to say about anything!

lamo Bush/Mcshame are the same.

Winners one and all–NOT!!!!!!

Jeb Bush is still popular in Florida. In fact, that explains Florida is safely in McCain's campain.

THIS IS TERRIFIC!!! PLEASE pick Jeb as your running mate!
Nothing will help Obama more that a bunch of cars driving around with MCCAIN-BUSH bumper stickers!

Unfortunately he is a BUsh. Otherwise he would be great for a changing world. Reasonable on environment, a Mexican wife, brown children. It has winner written all over it EXCEPT Bush.

Anything that has a Bush name on it, McCain should run for the hills.

And WHY are they visiting the Basilica of the Virgin of Guadalupe?????

And i'm sure this def. means that McCain is a bush clone. I think not. Jeb Bush is part of the republican party and he has every right to be speaking to McCain.

I laugh at all the anti-republican posts on here. You think the DNC are angels when all I hear are attacks and put-downs of all the republican members. On this blog you are the ones saying the most vile things about McCain and his wife, so i think the tables have turned now - THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS doing the smearing

the other retard…derr derrr DERRRRRR..

This unfortunately ties McCain to Bush even more.

While I appreciated how Jeb handled the FL hurricanes, his TWO unconstitutional rulings with continued persistence into Schiavo & private vouchers was similar to the "above the law" approach his brother's administration seemed to take. No more Bush in the White House, nor their affiliates (please).

Obama '08

And Jed Bush says "PICK ME PICK ME I'LL BE YOUR VP"

My brother was a screwup, can I help you be one too?

Does this man even TRY to think? I'm all for Obama being president, but this guy is handing it to him on a silver platter.

A quarter from 1964 contained about 90% silver and could buy about a gallon of gas. It took about five of those quarters to get an ounce of silver. Look at the value of an ounce of silver today and divide it by five. Ironically (sarcasm) it's about the same as a gallon of gas today. If our money were actually backed by something gas would still only be around 30 cents a gallon.

Wake up!!!

GrandPa, Please take Jeb as your VP

I'd rather have John McCain or Jeb Bush for President than U-TURN Obama any day.

Unless you had Jeb Bush as your Governor of your state, you don't know anything about him. He was a great Governor for 8 years until he had to leave office due to term restrictions. By the way, he doesn't want to be in public office any more.

All you naysayers are just jealous that McCain is going to be the pants off of Obama come this November.

Sam the Sham and the Abominates will never see the light of the White House unless it's on a tour.

Please please please McCain, pick Jeb for your VP! It will end any doubt that you would do anything but blindly follow discredited Bush policies.

OK< so this is what we're going to do to steal this election…

If you're voting for McCain in November, you are no longer democrats. I read so many times "I'm a democrat and I will vote for McCain." BS. No you're not a democrat b/c democrats aren't that stupid.

I will just ROLL if they put Jeb in as VP……………….Next thing you know ole McCain will be saying he has to step down for " Health reasons" and POOF there you have it BUSHS 3rd Term via TROJAN HORSE!!!!

Two losers !

Gosh…just because McCain is meeting Jeb in Mexico, does NOT mean he is picking him for VP.

CNN vet the candidates.

Interesting, you would think he would run from anyone with the last name Bush.

McCain/ Bush…McCain/ Bush…McSame/Bush
McBush…McSame…Same, Same, ………………Same

Enough of Jethro and his devious plans!

I feel terrible for our country, Obama and my fellow supporters. Most of us do not realize this signals a very bad fall election.

Think about it…..The republicans, though tepid support for McCain would prefer a 3rd term before allowing Obama to enter the White House. The end game being Jeb Bush VP to become POTUS in 2012.

Next….you have the PUMA PACs that would vote for McBush/Bush before supporting an Obama presidency.

Finally, the democrats (progressive / liberals) are fueling the attacks against Obama for flip flopping on FISA and capital punishment.

Two quick points on the later : The FISA bill….if Obama didn't support it and Black's words came to fruition…the average american would say "Obama didn't do everything possible to avert an attack. A true Muslim". Capital punishment - duh…Obama has two little girls. enuf said

George W. Dimwit blew any chance for Jeb as a presidential candidate…….And that's a GOOD THING.

I remember when McNut said, "why, there is nothing about Jeb that I don't love." Hence, don't rule ol' "Let's steal the FL election" Jeb, as VP for McNut. The evil Bush Dynasty will live on into eternity. What about the dead 4,100 brave American teenage soldiers lying dead in their graves.? Oh, I forgot, they don't matter, just the corporations, Carlyisle, and Halliburton.

McCain: Okay, how much do you want for Florida's vote?
Jeb: $25 Million should do it.
McCain: Sounds good to me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMERICA — THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE!

I see that some so called Hillary supporters say they would still vote for McCain even if a Bush was on the ticket. Now that's sick.

***********************************

SORRY JEB BUT YOUR LAST NAME HAVE BEEN TARNISH.

NO MORE BUSH.. THE WORST COULD STILL HAPPEN WITH AN OTHER BUSH AT THE WHITE HOUSE.. A BUSH IS A BUSH

bush has done alot of wrong things over the last 8 years but at least he has the loud bark and the bite to go with it.. Terrorist messed up after 9/11 because they thought America was still in the CLINTON mind set. AFter the USS COLE attack Clinton didnt do anything against Bin ladin. If clinton would of dealt with Bin Ladin we would of never had 9/11. I dont care who becomes president as long as they put terrorist in their place

Talk all he wants it just goes to show you that the Bush Family ownes McSame!!!

Obama 08

DEB: you are a true Republican and always have been haven't you? I hope you don't have any loved ones in Iraq.

mccain could use some more bush,but,the rest of us can do without them.

I thought ol Jeb was out of the spot light for good after that debacle over Terri Schiavo when he and Bush2 tried changing the laws because the law did not suit their religion or beliefs. Talk about no separation of church and state. If we elect Mcsame, we deserve what happens for the next 4,8,100 years. More of the same.

Too bad for McCain that Jeb isn't the governor any longer

Jeb as VP to McCain.

McCain catches a "Kremlin cold" and Jeb's the President.

America can't be that stupid!

Leave McCain alone you know he's gone senile and thinks he can count the votes in other countries and that is why he goes to places like Canada, Mexico and Columbia.

Actually his campaign is likely better suited by keeping him out of the country and his feet out of his mouth.

The books that are currently being written …and will be written… after George Jr. and Cheny leave office will be very interesting and telling…I have a "feeling" there is so much more to their relationships to the oil industry…could the high gas prices and Iraq war have been planned OVER eight years ago…

…just my "conspiracy theory" thoughts…

Do these Hillary Democrats for McCain really exist? These people are very confused! I think the more likely story is that they are disciples of Rush Limbaugh who are posing as such in a pathetic effort to sway other voters. You should no longer call yourself a democrat if you identify with the political ideaologies of McCain. He is conservative on all the issues that matter in this election.

I am outraged by the outcome of the last two elections and where we sit as a nation. I don't know what bothers me more; to think that the integrity of our elections was compromised, or the alternative explanation, our citizens really did vote for Bush (not once, but twice).

God Help Us!

Fool me once SHAME ON YOU
Fool me twice SHAME ON ME
Fool me THRICE? FORGET IT!!!!

Oh joy! How fun is that for McCain. Why doesn't he go on a Bush tour and bring daddy along for good measure.

Obama '08

Smart move by the McCain Camp. Jeb Bush is a solid, rational, and popular conservative.

McCain - Romney 2008

Jeb Bush and Gramps McCain - "Dumb and Dumber 2008″.

you people have lost you dang mind, Obama is going to save our country!, Yea by raising taxes on a already struggling economy, He is going to save health care like the canadians did, yea just talk to some in canada that needed an emergency surgery that was scheduled for 6 months later, thats why the majority of canadians are now trying to undo there government health care system, OBAMA=CARTER ( the worst president in history) McCain=Gerald Ford (one of the worst president) Any one who can voter for obama or mccain is a complete fool!, Oh by the way you idiots, you cant tax a corporation!

That's true supporters not those that voter for her at Rush's direction

You go McShame ! I am a proud Obama supporter and i donate to his cause and will when ever i can.McCain is so old, i fdont think he has the bearings to last 4yrs(god forbid, if he wins).

Just the other day, i got a letter from the McShame campaign, asking me for money.The usual GOP crap.
My reply? - "I am NOT your friend !"

We gotta understand that Obama has to appeal to different kinds of people - educated/not, religious/not, rich/poor,So sometimes, he is forced to take a middle ground.We should be smart enough to undestand that.Our eyes should be on the prize - turning around the economy.Try to see the bigger picture.

All lies would fall apart, like who is NOT the elitist? McCain? - who has more than 7 villas/condos?Whos wifes monthly creditcard bills run more than $750,000?Who flies around in his private jet?

Think before you vote !

Yes.We.Can.
Obama -08.

DEB, you are NOT an HRC Dem for McCain…you're not fooling anyone. NONE of the HRC supporters I know and there are many would EVER vote for McCain.

McCain, like bush, is disgusting human being, and I don't see how anyone in the right mind would for him unless they are only voting for party affiliation. The comments that he made about Obama in front of the green wallpaper is the laughing point of the nation. It makes him look extremely bad. If you select the day in which a party choose their party nominee, you will always come off looking bad. It was a stupid ploy.

McCain may as well put Jeb on the ticket…….it's not like anyone still believes he is his own man.

Jeb is irrelavent. His brother has ended any hope he may ever have had of occupying 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. America will never suffer another Bush. McCain understands that Florida is at risk of going Democrat, but there probably isn't much he can do to stop it.

DEB - were you really for Hillary? I find that hard to believe that someone who agreed with Hillary on the issues would think that McCain/Bush would be a good alternative. They couldn't be further apart on most issues. Something smells like a republican in sheeps clothing here…

As a Floridian, I say the wrong Bush became president. Jeb was a good governor for the State of Florida. He transformed the government and was fair and honest. Too bad his last name is Bush.

I am a Florida resident. And the fondest memory I have of Jeb Bush is when as governor of Florida Jeb stole the votes for his brother George Bush in the 2000 election — introducing America to its darkest chapter since I have been alive. As for the rest of Jeb's legacy? Well, like I said, that was my fondest memory of the governor.

Not even McSame is stupid enough to pick a Bush as a running mate. Not one person on earth is that stupid, although McSame does sometimes seem almost as dumb as George.

You know what they say about birds of a feather…

MAVERICK, MY ARSE!!

now this is funny, mcain needs fresh shakeup in his org
every week because he just keeps stepping in it

Jeb Bush is a scumbag like the rest of this family! Just GO AWAY! We HATE you Bush's!

NO MORE BUSHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deb and all others so intent on voting for McCain to punish the DNC and biased media: Hillary was my choice and I am saddened that she will not be our president. However, I too swore I would not vote or vote for McCain but I have come to my senses. While I would rather have Hillary, unless something drastic happens, I will listen closely to Obama's message. Our country can't go on like this and McCain is radical. I supported him in 2000 but he has changed and will do or say anything to get president before is name. We need to take back our country for our children and grandchildren. He is in line with George W. Bush and look what is happening in Afghanistan because we put all our resources into Iraq.

McSame nothing you do is going to help. Please explain Mr. On, if you are so high and mighty.

Whats with all the VP talk?

News flash- no one has mentioned Jebs name as a possible VP

The 2 names I have heard mentioned most are.
-Mitt Romney
-Bobby Jindal

Jeb is one smart cookie. He got those Non Felon blacks and hispanics off the ballots in Florida in 2000.

Here's how the president of the United States was elected:

In the months leading up to the November balloting, Florida Governor Jeb Bush and his Secretary of State, Katherine Harris, ordered local elections supervisors to purge 64,000 voters from voter lists on the grounds that they were felons who were not entitled to vote in Florida. As it turns out, these voters weren't felons, or at least, only a very few were. However, the voters on this "scrub list" were, notably, African-American (about 54 percent), while most of the others wrongly barred from voting were white and Hispanic Democrats.

American Gangster wasn't a real movie, the BUSH's are the real American Gangsters.

LOL@ The GOP…I mean, I think that for ANYONE that isnt a gazillionaire and a GOP layalist, you gotta be DUMB!!!! But for those dummies that will yet again vote for another BUSH….Hey, once sure way to ensure a Democrat is int he White House

Aha! I knew they were setting McCain up for something…Jeb Bush as VP, eventually President. He even has the look! Clever!

WOW!!!! Whats with all the paranoia????!!!!

WOW!!!! Whats with all the parnoia????!!!!

This in the news today - McShame is inept even at being a senator - notice he can profit from his mistake —-

Allies of Sen. John McCain have found new loopholes in the campaign-finance law he helped write — and they're using them to reel in huge contributions to help him compete with Sen. Barack Obama.

He won't pick Jeb for VP, just wants to have him help him win the state.

The REAL PROBLEM with electing McCain is that he's a potential "time bomb" waiting to explode. I'm a psych nurse who knows about war prisoners, torture etc. and their emotional health. These individuals suffer from anger, rage, depression, anxiety, delusions etc. and can "break" at any time and require emergent psychological treatment. No thanks, don't want to take that change with our President of our country…..do you?

NO NO NO NO!!!!! NO MORE BUSHS!!!

He won't pick Jeb for VP, just wants to have him help him win the state.

The REAL PROBLEM

McBush 3 said he is waiting until Obama announce his pick for VP, then he will make his announcement. Can't McBush 3 do anything without following the lead of Obama, or sharing the White House with the Bush’s clan in his sight?

I'm supporting McCain too after what they did to Hillary.

Maybe the Repugs can continue to win elections by screwing up Florida again.

You Oblahblahblahmanutz having a little field day are you. Pathetic misguided liberals. Get out of your mothers basement and get a job.

Here we go again … Dynasty politics

I don't agree with Jeb's foreign policy (PNAC) but he was great for Florida. A praise worthy governor who kept his hands out of our pockets and protected our liberty.

Jeb Bush was a "sun tan" governor. A governor with a sun tan who only would be governor in a state full of "sun tanned people" and south beach. He is stupid and doesn't have a brain in his head.

I think McCain's wisdom will truly be evident when he picks a Bush as his running mate. Can you imagine a sound bite of the two "Hello voters! Look over there John, my brother GW is here to…..John..John?"
Continue the prosperity!
McCane/? in 08!

I wrote it once and I am here to write it again. Bush isn't fundraise for McBush with no IOU's attached….JED BUSH, the truth is slowly being revealed….stay tune more Bush chips to come…………

I thought McFlip wanted to distance himself from Bush…that should mean ALL OF THEM..or did he forget he said that???

McCain is the most moderate republican in the senate. He has proven he can and will work with both sides to fix this mess. What has Obama done? He talks a good talk but what has he done? He doesn't even vote when he is present? I guess a No Vote is better then taking a stand. I don't trust Obama to fix anything. My gut tells me he is not the best choice for POTUS. I will write Hillary on my ballot in November, as will a lot of people I know.

If Jeb turns him down, I hear McCain is thinking of asking OJ next.

Bush won't be the VP. That plays too easily into the Democrat's hands. But Jeb is a much better politician than W ever was. He was able to deliver Florida to his brother despite Florida's preference for Gore. McCain will NEED Bush and Crist to help deliver the Cuban vote to keep Florida in contention.

It's a smart move to strategize with Jeb - since he's much more intelligent and savy than his brother.

But to reiterate, no he won't be the VP.

I DARE HIM TO PICK A BUSH AS VP! He would be laughed out of this campaign. I know Jeb Bush has experience delivering Florida though!

OBAMA/SEBELIUS!!!

If there ever was a modern age of aristocracy, the Bush Family surely exempifies that age. That definitely is true of Prince Jeb Bush while Governor of Florida. He was a "let them eat cake" type of governor who didn't give a rat's behind for his state employees and millions of other Florida citizens. Big money and dirty tricks kept the Prince there for two terms just like his incompetent brother, King George.

Puzzlement Question: If there are more registered Democrats than Republicans in this country, why do we continue electing people like the Bushes for two terms????????

Gee, I don't know… if I were Jeb Bush, I'd run the other way. Hanging with Bush or McBush doesn't do much for one's resume.

McCain = Flip Flopper!
Repub, Democrat, Ind all say it because he has changed his positions more times than I change the cat litter!
First its No tax breaks for the rich Now Tax breaks!
First it was no to Offshore Drilling Now its Yes to drillin!
First it was yes im clueless on the Economy now he 'CLAIMS' knows all about the economy!
Maybe next election he might actually give the issues some thought and dont do things like vote "AGAINST" MLK day!
McLame is a J-O-K-E!

Look for McCain to select Jeb Bush for VP… this gives even more weight to McCain's 4 years being another term for Bush… and it gives Jeb an add to his resume to run in 2012 or 2016.

Come'on American, say it with me… "No Bush Third Term!"

so is McCain planning on having him run for VP so they can try to have another Bush in office again? Making their plans for cooking the voting books in FL again this year?

Jeb Bush is a very sleazy person. You just get a bad vibe from him.

I’m glad the bitter Hillary supporters are going to vote for McCain. They must think, as do I, that women should NOT have the right to make decisions regarding their own bodies. Roe vs. Wade will be overturned! Can’t wait!

The good ol' boys getting together at last!

Read above comments for more prime examples of Obamite's intelligent posts. It doesn't take a genius to put "Mc" in front of words to make a point, kids. I regularly encourage everybody I know to read the comments on these forums to get an idea of what the Obama movement is really all about:

Take 1 part MTV, add hyper-race baiting, stir in a liberal portion of empty slogans, kneed in some no-so-cleverly disguised agism, and bake the steaming heap in the biased media. What do you get? Cake for the Obama sheep to eat. Go ahead and eat your cake kiddies. Your in for a big suprise when the adults vote this November.

Jeb Bush is a dishonest and phony person. There is nothing religious about him. He is a liar.

Jeb Bush

For V.P.

Mcain/Jeb Bush.

After the mess the Bush has made of this country - who in their right mind would have anything to do with another Bush - aparently someone who is outta their mind!!! Opps - will that be taken as an age insensitive joke ????

I just wish all of the Greg in NYs that threatened to leave the US if Bush beat Kerrey really would have left. Now we have more people threatening to leave should McCain win. You love this country so much that when its democratic process works, but not for your guy, you "threaten" to leave. Please don't let the border hit you in the backside on your way out.

But , as we all know, it is an idle statement.

Yes. McCain pick him as your running mate………. the McCain-Bush ticket… brilliant…………. however, you won;t be able to distance your self from Prresident shrub if his brother is your running mate……. you will be apert of the family.

BARACK THE VOTE PEOPLE………………..

HEY DEB: HRC supporters are still writing in ALL CAPS to make sure their lame statements are ULTRA IMPORTANT. Pathetic and your thumbs up to McCain and Jeb Bush transcend to moron status.

What a surprise that left-wing nuts would use Jeb Bush item to smear GWB and McCain!

Just what America wants and needs, another Bush in the White House. I think it would be great for Jeb to be the VP for McCain. Then Obama would legally be able to call John McCain/John McSame. He is not just 95% Bush but one hundered ninety five percent Bush.
Continue the prosperity America!
McCain/Dole in 08!

WARNING: THIS IS NO MORE THAN A POLITICAL PLOY BY MCCAIN. OF COURSE HE'S NOT GOING TO PICK JEB BUSH AS A RUNNING MATE, HE'S TRYING TO SHOW HE'S DISTANCED HIMSELF FROM THE BUSH CLAN.

NOOOOOOOOO, not another Bush. This is a nightmare!!!

McCain doesn't need Jeb Bush - he will already win Florida handily. The demographics favor McCain and the Democrats destroyed alot of trust with the way they handled the Florida primary. No need for the Republicans to steal it this year.

Ha Ha.. A meeting of the minds to discuss how we're going to Steal this election with some hanky panky shady business!
NOT THIS TIME - Buddy!

Yes We Can

I lived in Florida the entire time Jeb Bush was governor. While George Bush pandered to the religious right, Jeb is actually one of them. Let's hope there's no talkof a v.p. spot.

OMG……no more Bushs, no more Clintons…….don't the GOP get it?

Not that I am a McCain supporter, but if I was him I would like Jessie Jackson said "stay out of the bushes".

Here's your Republican "surprise" VP pick

good luck GOP - the bush brand is pretty tarnished…

It's been three decades since a Bush or a Clinton hasn't been on a Presidential ticket. I hope this isn't a Jeb for VP meeting.

Actually, I hope it is. It will prove McCain really is running for W's third term.

this is a winning combination

NOT THIS TIME JEB!!! YOU WILL NOT STILL THE ELECTION IN 2008.
VOTE OBAMA NOVEMEBER 4.

Can't get away from the Bush clan can he?

Its a lost cause McCain. Just go home.

that shows he has no cofidence in Mcbush.
His brother has faded the dreams of the american people.
Jeb! be wise enough to lay your hands off the Mcbush campaign,cos we gona need you one day to run for president.
Your credentials far more outsrip that of your bloody and war mongering brother.
OBAMA 08!

After Jebs illegal and unethical involvement with the Terry Schiavo case (which the very large majority of Americans disapproved of), do you really think this guy is gonna help McCains campaign??

And I thought Repubs were supposed to be the Party of Gov staying outta your life… now it's the Dems that stand for personal freedoms and liberties (well, maybe not guns).

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Since CNN closes comments quickly to McCain news, I will respond here–I don't get why the left-wingers keep throwing Karl Rove up to us–The dems have a far scummier smear machine than the McCain campaign–they even smear each other and pay people to abuse republican bloggers. I just wish CNN, who used to be my favorite news station would stop catering to Obama on every site. Obama is now trying to BE McCain–so he can't be all that bad! Lou Dobbs and Wolf, keep up the good work! (unbiased 2)

ohmygod is Jeb Bush angling for VP??

same song… third verse? I don't think so. After Dubya, the Bush name is mud.

Why do i feel a McCain/Bush '08 ticket is coming our way…after all, republicans already have enough problems

Watch Out . . . If You Dont Tell Him Something He Likes He Will Try And Snatch You Up Like He Did That Guy In Columbia!

Does John McCain not have a brain cell left in his head? He should stay far away from anyone named Bush!

Florida scumbag.

I sure hope McCain doesn't want another Bush as his VP. that would be a horrible idea. Not for McCain, but for the general public.

The McCain camp shakeup was yesterday and the hostage release photoup and advance knowledge took place in Columbia . Today he is in Mexico to pick Jeb as his Veepee. It looks like McCain's policies on the American people will be designed from abroad. We need our Prez to spend time fixing our probs here at home and not seeking foreign recognition in the face of domestic woes and 60000 losses in June.

Oh great, as if McCain wasn't already Bush-like enough!

The sight of this repub makes me nauseous.

Way to squash those ideas that you would be another Bush term.

Who cares!!!

Another reason not to vote for McCain. Phil Gramm, George W, corporate insiders in his campaign, Is there any good reason to vote for McCain?
We do not want more of the last 71/2 years.

"Ok Sen. McCain, here's how you steal Florida…………"

HUMMMMM…

Oh Brother!
Here we go, again!
Pandering for the Catholic vote!
I suspect we'll see a photograph of Jeb and McSame kneeling and lighting candles at the shrine in all the Catholic newspapers.

"Ok, Sen. McCain, let's show you how to steal Florida…………."

Gov. Jeb Bush looks super cool next to that mexican race car.

Maybe Bush is thinking of running for president of Mexico.

He knows his family's name is ruined here.

hint hint…. he becomes the VP for 8 years, then the President for another 8. That's 16 years of Bushes again. As silly as that may sound, remember, President Bush, unlike Robert Mugabe and the idiot Musharraf, did not force himself to become one especially for the 2nd term! Our fellow Americans voted for him. So anything is possible. Eeeeeewwwww another 16 years of Bush family.

McCain/Bush 08

Jeb Bush will be Mccain's running mate

McCain can try to campaign that he is not the Bush's 3rd term but every time you turn around McCain is in cahoots with Bush's policies, beliefs, staff and now family.

End the insanity and get the country back on the right track.

Obama '08!!!

CNN) – Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, the brother of President Bush, is meeting up with John McCain Thursday in Mexico City to visit the Basilica of the Virgin of Guadalupe, his campaign has announced…….
Jeb and McCain can bump heads on how to steal the Election!!!!

The Prez, Jeb, and McCain alias Curley, Larry, and Moe. A comical team if it was not so sad via reality.

Sorry buddy, The door is closing. You stick your foot in it, it will be cut off. There are your Elitists right there, thinking they own our country.

Jeb Bush looks like Bob Schaffer.

Jeb Bush was secretly rooting for Mitt Romney but ended up having to reluctantly endorse McCain. How about make it official and have a McCain/Bush ticket with Jeb? That way we all can use the term "McBush" freely!

ANOTHER BUSH GOOD GRIEF…. PLEASE CNN THIS ISN'T NEWS.

Please Please Please McCain , pick a Bush that way you can feel what its like to have a 49 state blowout like McGovern.

Bush will be the kiss of death for McCain's bid for the White House

John McCain: A true friend to the Bush family. Vote McCain to continue the successes of the Bush years.

Just another Bush in cahoots with McCain. He can't separate himself from the Bush family.

McSame, the worst candidate ever hangs with Bush, the worst President ever. Way to go, John!

There we go. McBush / Bush in 2008. Oh my God!

Pandering? Of course! La Basilica de Guadalupe wasn't meant for political grandstanding. This Latino is voting for Obama no matter how you pretend to visit a spiritual sanctuary.

Go away McSame, go away!

Jeb for VP..for Obama. They a re a perfect match! Obama is already acting like a Republican with all his flip flopping!!

mcbush and jeb are probably talking about the vp position. i hope mcsenile offer and jeb accepts, that will ensure a republican loss this time around.

Jeb for VP..for Obama. They a re a perfect match! Obama is already acting like a Republican with all his flip flopping.

once again CNN, why don´t you allow comments about mc cheek?

biased?

Will the American press be permitted to attend this meeting? If not, IT MEANS NOTHING, and I don't see the need to inform us.

DEMOCRATS UNITE!!!!

McCain isn't thinking of a Bush VP is he?

Mc Cain is seen as a maverick. Finally he can´t do another policy than Bush. He simply has to follow the RNC direction.

Good pick McInsane…Nothing like further seperating yourself from the worst President in US History. Did this idea come from your new superstar / Rove clone?

HILLARY DEMOCRAT FOR MCCAIN YOU GO JOHN
MCCAIN/JEB BUSH 08

will we ever be free from the rotten Bush dynasty?

Oh, please choose Jeb as VP. Otherwise, people might not know how intimately connected you are with the House of Bush!

Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaaase pick Jeb as VP. Your journey to the dark side will be complete.

Although, if McCain ends up getting elected with Jeb as VP, then I wave goodbye to America and then wave hello again from Canada!

Jeb Bush was an OK governor for Florida but a Bush is a Bush is a Bush….all wrong for American politics.

McCain having close ties with all these Bush family members just confirms more how he's progressing for a 3rd Bush term.

Obama is coming to the rescue……….

OBAMA '08

So Jeb has decided to crawl out from under the rock he has been hiding under. I was living in Florida when all of the nonsense occured stealing the election from Gore and giving it to Cheney.I hope that his brother paid him off very well!!!
