CNN

Funny how we have too many Bushes. I think we can say we have too many Kennedys as well. If it were really out with the old and in with the new we wouldn't be talking about Caroline Kennedy!

Simply incredible. I hear no one talking about Caroline Kennedy aspiring to the New York Senate seat being vacated by Hillary Clinton. And was Hillary from New York? No more so than Caroline's uncle Robert who held the Senate seat previously. While I would have to doubt the intelligence of the people of New York by clinging to famous folks from other parts of the country to serve in the US Senate, ultimately it is their own choice, just as the people of Florida will decide whether or not to elect Jeb Bush. In terms of qualifications, what qualification does Caroline Kennedy have to serve as United States Senator from New York? Unfortunately, her only qualification is her last name.

All you Libs attacking another Bush running for office are probably just fine with another Kennedy. At least the Bush's are not a bunch of murderers and rapists like the Kennedy clan. Are you going to let this one through CNN Censor???

Roosevelt and Kennedy dynasties are one thing, but the Bushes? Even George Bush, Sr. only seems better because the completely lackluster administration of his eldest son.

To all you people blasting away at folks that wouldn't vote simply because of the bush name would you vote for p person named
Hitler or Satan. Hell you probably didn't vote for Barack because his middle name is Hussein, freakin morons

Florida- you made us proud this last election. Please don't disappoint us with Jeb!

As long as he runs in Florida who cares.

DOES ANYBODY HAVE A SHOE?!?!?!?!

slow dow n Jeb, may be a good governor, but a good US senator, that takes more than governing, it takes obama like brains, kenedy like brains not bush like brains! You need more than a name Jeb!!!

NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES...NO MORE BUSHES... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOBAMA
cant believe that over 65 million people actually believed that clowns pandering of hope and change.

PALIN 2012

The President wants his brother to COMPETE for a senate seat. Harry Reid want another Kennedy to be APPOINTED. God forbid the people decide. I know little about either person, but it would seem to me that the appointment of someone with a famous name is a little worse than allowing someone with a famous name an opportunity to be elected.

As for Jeb and W being popular governors, so was Sarah Palin and we all know how that turned out.

Noooooooooo! Enough with the Bushes already!

Out with the old in with the new. December 16th, 2008 3:41 pm ET
We don't need any more Bushes which includes
Father of Bushes
Mother of Bushes
Cousin of Bushes
Sister of Bushes
Brother of Bushes
Daughter of Bushes
Son of de Bushes

That goes double for Kennedys.

It is too early to tell if we want another Clinton, or another Obama, Michelle Obama as our commander-in-chief in a dangerous world.

The "Bush legacy" – 41 and 43 – has done enough damage to the country. No more Bushes ... or Clintons.

Oh my Lord, not another one.....haven't we suffered enough for the past 8 years without the thought of yet another Bush getting into the Senate and maybe running for President at some point!!!!
This is a very scary idea!!!!!!!

It'll take more than two years to rehabilitate the family brand, hopefully forever.

Have we NOT learned our lesson where the Bush Family is concerned?

Fool me once... shame on you. Fool me twice... shame on me. Fool me three times... what the heck was I thinking... and I deserve exactly what I get! Seriously..... learn the lesson or pay the price!

ANOTHER ONE ???? I THOUGHT THEY WERE OVER WITH

AMERICA WISE UP !!!!
DONT BE FOOLED!!!!
"FOOL ME ONCE SHAME ON YOU, FOOL ME TWICE SHAME ON ME"!!!

THE BUSH LEGACY IS OVER!!!!!!
HISTORY BOOKS WILL TELL
CANT WAIT TO WRITE MANY PAPERS ON THIS
]

I

NO MORE BUSHES.BROTHERFATHER.MOTHER,SISTER,COUSIN, AUNT, UNCLE NO MORE!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY GET WORSE AND WORSE. THEY NEED TO TRY ANOTHER LINE OF WORK AND STOP LIVING OFF THE WORKING PEOPLE.

NO MORE BUSHES ON THE PUBLIC PAYROLL EVER AGAIN!!!!!

Jeb Bush may be a smarter guy than his brother, but I do believe he "cooked" the vote in 2000 along with Katherine Harris, the Secretary of State at the time, to give the electoral votes to his brother. How would it have looked if Florida went for Gore, while Jeb was their Governor!! So by 547 votes (or something ilke that), "W" wins the presidency. What a sad and sorry event that has turned out to be!!!

NO! We're sick of the Bushes, and the Kennedy's. Go find another career.

These guys are making another joke that's not funny on all of us right? Another scare tactic? They've got to be kidding about how most of the entire world hates them. The so-called "real Americans" would vote for him just like they supposedly did for his brother...twice..and those same "real Americans" call us stupid.

fool me once, fool me twice but not three times, please!!!!!!!

NOOOOO! No More Bushes in office! Bush Senior left behind a $300 Billion Debt! Bush Jr. is leaving us with a false war, a $10 Trillion debt, the 21st century Depression, global economic crisis, our national honor in the toilet and millions without jobs or insurance. Jeb should be the 'smart' Bush and stay out of politics... for the betterment of mankind!

Please Jeb, don't listen to him! What America DOESN'T need is another Bush in any office of the federal government!!!!! All of the Bushes should be hanging their heads in shame.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE.......No more Bush Clan in the W/House, Senate, Congress or anywhere in National Politics!!!

I think we have had 'ENOUGH' of the Bush Clan!!!

He helped steal the election for his brother...

Yes, I just bet he does want Jebbie boy to run for office, any political office so George can get his boy Karl Rove back to work. Hopefully the voters will remember, when the time comes (and it will come around) what a rotton, horriable, lieing, cheating, hardheaded, unforgiving, unrelenting, no good, murdering no good his brother (W) is/was during his tenure as our leader. Hopefully they will remember how much in debt both W and his daddy HW left this country. The Bushes don't get better, they get worse.
I think Jeb will take a few years to choose to run though, because he has to clean up the stink his family left in Florida. The gov. of Floridas son, daughter and wife being in trouble with the law for drugs, alcohol and stealing can't be good for the public to remember if one is wanting to run for a Senate or Representives office. AND hopefully we all will remember when the dirty tricks start again to get him elected, that we have gotten past the dirty tricks but we shouldn't forget about them and what happens IF we listen to them again.... ANOTHER BUSH GETS ELECTED......

" Sounds like the rest of you are depending your vote on a name rather than on the person and what they stand for/capable of. Go get educated."

Hmm !!! Isn't that what all the Repugs were doing about Obama's name ?

Hey CNN : what do you do, pick on certain people and and ban their comments ? Just about all of my posts are banned these days. None of them are as bad as some I read on here.

Lets vote for Jeb Bush for Senate of a different country not USA. Sorry House Full. Try Venezuela... if they have a Senate system. Or be some pencil pusher somewhere else...

Too much "Bush" will make you sick!

God help us all if another Bush is put into office again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Jeb bush runs, everyone will need to keep their old shoes. (LOL)

Jeb Bush is one Bush too many......
He may not appear to be as dumb as Geo. W., but they both share the same values, and parents. Not to mention the fact that, they are both heads of dysfunctional families . Though, Jenna has gotten married, and seems to have sown her wild oats,
Jeb`s daughter the Cocaine addict ,..... well I just don`t know......
Also his son should have been one of the first to inlist into the armed forces after 911...... But being a Bush , unlike his grandfather Geo. H. W. Bush , who served his country in WW2 , I guess he had other things to do ......
NO MORE BUSH`S ........

Yep, of course GW would want his bro to run for senate – go figure, a couple of weeks ago after Barak Obama was elected, Jeb (another moron) Bush called for a Shadow Government. This guy thinks he is in England where Shadow Governments are commonplace.

In the U. S., a shadow government means the Repubs work in the background to undermine anything the incoming Pres. does.

Yep – vote for Jeb Bush. He is worse than his brother.

Plain and simple – Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

HE'S GOING TO LOSE.

I live in Florida and I would never vote for him.

There are a lot of us that feel the same way after George and George this country does not need another Bush PERIOD.

Sarah Palin's job approval is 80%, Jeb Bush 60%, and Rod Blago 8%.
Gov. of 8% doesn't want to resign or step down. Why not Gov. of 60%
run for Senate in 2010 ??

GO for JEB 2010

He just put the "kiss of death" on his brothers political aspirations.

@Donovan, read a book for a change. EVERY independent news organization that recounted Florida found that Gore lost Florida and Bush won Florida in 2000. Substantially.

Democrats keep telling Republicans to move on from the election of six weeks ago. Democrats need to move on from the election of eight years ago! Eight years of repeating the same lie does not turn it into the truth. And the truth shall set you free.

NO, NO, NO, NO. NO. What part of NO do you not understand Jeb? I am from Florida and you will NOT get my vote. Take a rest Bushes.

Yeah, why not see if you can steal ANOTHER election.

Well if he hired a good plastic surgeon and changed his name...he might have a chance. But Georgie, you ruined it for all the Bush's to come.

Busch you are the Ax of Evil

i'll bet that all these dems who are raving about no more dynasty will be the very same ones who go all out for chelsea (god forbid) and another kennedy and already did so with hillary! if you think you are believable just look at yourselves – you are so hypocritical it is funny (and transparant)

In 2004 after 4 sickly years of lies and falsehoods I cut up a Bush/Cheney campaign bumper sticker to read, "No Bush" I was longing for the day, 20 Jan. 09 to remove it from my truck's rear window. Sadly it will have to remain. BTW, I live in FL so I know what a snake Jeb is.

Virginia says:

I guarantee you that we will have PLENTY to complain about–already have and Obama isn't even president YET!!

Interesting you didn't cite ONE example. I wonder why that is? You don't know much about politics? You don't have an example? You understand that your 'example' will be shredded by those more knowledgeable than you?

I doubt you have enough self-awareness for the last one. My guess is, you have no idea what you're saying.

People should keep an open mind about this. Your opinion of George Sr. or Jr. should have ZERO bearing on your opinion of Jeb. He would be great or worthless, judge him by his record not his name. After all didn't most Americans judge Obama on his record not his name?

I am an Independent that voted against Pres. Bush both times. But Jeb Bush is his own man. And a very smart man. He would make an excellent Senator. We can not discriminate against Jeb b/c of his family ties. We have to look at every single candidate on their own merits.

Aren't there any trees out there instead? No bushes, please. They should go vacation in Iraq for a while. President Bush can likely start a shoe business out there.

OMG – another member of the royal family's dynasty? Our galaxy, our planet, our hemisphere, our continent, our country... the Bush dynasty has destroyed Amwerica and given our souls to foreigners. WE CANNOT AFFORD ANY MORE BUSHES.

George Bush has guaranteed that no member of his family will ever hold public office again. And if any voting constituency ever elects this crowd to office, they should seceed that part of the country from the rest of us!!!

The Bush Family has stolen every nickel they have at the expense of the average American! Because of the antics of Prescott Bush, who had his companies seized under the "Trading With The Enemy Act" in 1942 (money laundeering with the Nazis!), George H.W. Bush had to move out-of-state to get elected. These people are not from Texas – they're from Connecticut!

IT'S TIME TO TRIM THE BUSHES – PERMANENTLY!!!!!!!

He is much smarter than his brother, but he still is one of the many right wing cronies that can't be trusted to do what is right for the American people. JUST SAY NOOOOOOOO !!!

Jeb is more of the same above the law approach as George. While govenor, Jeb Bush was ruled unconstitutional two times; however, he continued his illegal pursuit of religious vouchers and intrusion into the private family matter of Terri Schiavo (may she rest in peace).

No more Bushes and their neoconservative nonsense.

You go, KC Bob, & Some one in Cali – you guys said it best !

Larry
Houston

Lameus Duckus must keep his mouth shut, just like Cheney. I'd say W. has done about as much for his brother's political future as he's done for our country and the world.
NO MORE BUSHES IN POLITICS. PERIOD.

Viriginia–

Stop spewing long enough to see that "REAL" is one of yours.

He is calling out Democrats. All your rant shows is that you guys are all clueless.

Jeb would have a better chance by changing his last name to Nixon or Hitler.

I can only hope Florida will not allow this jerk to win.

We don't need any more Bushes which includes
Father of Bushes
Mother of Bushes
Cousin of Bushes
Sister of Bushes
Brother of Bushes
Daughter of Bushes
Son of de Bushes

Um, not everyone in Florida loved Jeb as governor. That's why his approval rating was 60% instead of 100%.

Count me as one of the 40%. I'm a native Floridian and have seen my share of governors come and go. Jeb was a joke, and did nothing for this state. He did manage to preside over the worst election debacle this state or any other ever had (and for which we are still mocked), but aside from getting his brother installed in the White House, rescuing his wife from tax evasion and getting his drug-addled daughter off the hook, I can't think of a single noteworthy moment of his administration. I only hope he runs so I can vote against him.

BTW, before you label me a "typical liberal," I voted for GHW back in the day, and I'm perfectly happy with Charlie Crist.

NO MORE BUSHS

TO: a REAL American

"My question to these idiots is: what are going to do when Obama takes office, then who are you going to blame?"

People will continue to blame Bush and Cheney for years to come, just like republicans continue to blame Clinton and Carter for every problem since the creation of man. Get used to the idea that Bush (who really is to blame) will be blamed for every poor decision he and the republican have made for the last 8 years. Oh yeah, that reminds me, if the shoe fits.....

Wow, the guy that stole the election for Georgie Jr wants to run himself? I'm just waiting for the shenanigans that ensue ....

Please, enough! Jeb wanted to privitize everything including FLorida's water. Shades of Enron. Enough of the Bush family. They are a pox on America.

There should be a new law: NO MORE BUSHES IN PUBLIC OFFICE

We are done with the Bushes! NO WAY, NO HOW, NO MORE BUSHES!

Dont take your brother advice!!!!

Matt B> I don't care about his ratings. Palin had high ratings, too...before her people found out what a dope she is.
Jeb's as shady as all the other Bushes. Do you think W. would have "won" Florida if he wasn't?

No more Bush Family members in government. Jeb should go back to Maine where he grew up and where his family lives. He's a fake Floridian at best and a member of a crooked family at worst.

Jeb Bush should just go away. Just because Jeb Bush was popular back then doesn't mean a win for him is a sure thing. If a well known democrat in the state such as Bob Graham or Alex Sink enter the race, I don't see either of them losing to Jeb. This states political climate has shifted dramatically in voter affiliation in the democrats favor.

Ugh! They both need to call it quits and find some volunteer work to do. (think Katrina!) Lord knows they don't need a steady paycheck coming in. And we do NOT need any more Bushes holding any kind of public office again!!

No more of the horrendous Bush clan.

Maybe Texas will take all of them and allow the rest of the country to heal.

Enough already! This country has suffered SO much under both the "dult" of daddy Bush and the "absence of mentality" in the out-going one. PLEASE don't saddle this country with another one!

Jeb Bush is nothing to be concerned about. Now his son George P. Bush is a rising star in the Republican party. I'm sure Dick Cheney and Karl Rove are grooming him as we speak. (a frightening thought) I predict that George P. Bush will be president in 2032.

Obama/Binden
2008-2016

Who cares what George wants? With his approval rating, Jeb should think about changing his last name.

USA has no better people. Tha's why the dreadful bushes come up again and again. saddam=bush=hoover=depression=w.=geb=allhellbeings.

I don't think so. LOL

no more BUSHES , IF ANYONE HAS NOT HAD ENOUGH OF ALL THE CORRUPTION WITH THIS BUSH FAMILY , THAN THEY MUST BE BLIND OR STUPID . NO PLACE LEFT IN THE SPOT LITE FOR ANNNNNNNNNY BUSHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dont think so fat fuk!!!!

Um, sorry, no thanks. I think the Duh-bya has successfully killed the Bush "dynasty"

To those asking who we're going to blame, once Obama is in office...we might not blame ANYONE. Then again - we might blame YOU if you're one of the complete imbecils who is right now criticizing Obama's every move when he's not even taken office yet.

You hear a lot of Bush bashing on these pages because, in one eight-year period, no president in history has ever brought our nation and our freedoms and our treasury and our economy and on and on and on to such a low point.

It's a tremendously amazing feat - one that deserves the animosity it's getting.

But - think about this: at least the bashing didn't begin BEFORE HE STEPPED INTO THE WHITE HOUSE.

Equation that has only a bad solution:

W*Bush + Condi*Cheney^2/Rummy – The Shoe Thrower = Saddam*binLadin^3 + Iran/Iraq^(Afghanistan) – Geb^(G.H.W.)/shrub^(w.bush.disaster)

We do not need another one like the one we have. Look at the mess we have. Even Jebs son had to have special consideration in school, so what else do we need. NO MORE BUSH!

No thanks... another Bush is NOT what this country needs. Whatever happened to Neal Bush? Who's sitting on him these days?

Please, NO!! Hasn't that family done enough to screw up the United States?

NO MORE BUSHES! STOP IT ALREADY! NO MORE. I'll take more Clintons if it means the same kind of economic prosperity that we had toward the end of 2000. But no more Bushes!

I have a great deal of respect for Jeb Bush as a person ,perhaps the best of Bush clan. Did't we had enough of the bushes ? I think we all will be better off without the Midas touch of the Bushes. No more shoe treatment.

The father, the son and the holy BUSH.

Enough already!!!

NONONONO

And the consensus is..... FORGET IT BUSHIE............................................
And don't start crying "dynasty" as the Dems are with filling Hillary's Senate seat. These seats are NOT celebrity prizes.

Someone in Cali:
"Why on Earth would we need another Bush? to rise the budget deficit even more beyond $10 trillion like his brother?(after BILL CLINTON erased the deficit in his terms"

Uhhh... no deficit? It was 5.5 trillion dollars in 2000... and increased 1.5 Trillion under Clinton... granted it's up over 4 trillion under Bush... but try to at least get the facts straight... we've had a deficit for well over 50 years. Clinton did have a balanced annual budget his last year

To all the bush lovers,the state of florida was at an all time high for almost everything at the time jeb left office.
Well the dubya policies caught up with our state as well as the entire world and there would have been nothing jeb could have done to prevent it.
What would his popularity be if he left office this year? Around what his brothers is I am sure. He got out at a really good time because of term limits,he has to be happy about term limits about now.
We are now floundering worse then many states because of our economy is based on growth in the real estate market and tourism.
With both of those industries in the tank ,it sux to be a floridian.Many are suffering badly.If it was him that brought us all the good,was it him then that is also responsible for the bad now that the bubble burst? We have nearly the lowest unemployment payment in the country as well as the lowest workers comp payments and now the state approved for citizens to be charged to pay for a nuclear plant that is privatively owned. Sounds like the sort of socialism that republicans are ok with.

More Bushes ???? No way, God save America

jsk from Florida has written the best response to those with Bush Derangement Syndrome I have ever read. I for one stand ready to give Hussein Obama all of the respect and support that the Democrats have given Bush over the last 8 years.

I think ol George W has ruined any Bushes chance for election. Thank God.

Oh my god not another BUSH. we had a enough of the BUSH FAMILY.
jeb bush go away with your brother. the worst president we've ever had.

no more BUSH.
NO. NO. NO. NO. NO .NO

Finally, the Smarter Bush gets on the national stage. I can only imagine him seething for 8 years as his idiot brother sullied the family name.

I can't wait for the street demonstrations to begin so we can start to take back our country from the pseudo-reds gloating on this board, to whom I can only say: Batter up!

I don't know about the rest of country but I suspect that like me we're all Bushed Out.

This is funny...

Jeb is the only Republican Gov in Florida to ever be elected to a second term... by 53%... same as Obama's margin of victory... and would still be there if they allowed a third term.

If you're not from Florida... you can't vote in the Senate election... and he is popular down there... even in Georgia without Obama on the ticket the Repubs won that senate seat by 16%...

Don't confuse Jeb with George... Jeb would most likley win the seat if he decides to run.

JSK, Bush was president on 9/11. He was 20% into his first term and did not keep this country safe, even though he had been told in person by Clinton during the transition that al-Qaeda should be his top concern and in a national security briefing (the title of which Rice tried to deceive the 9/11 committee about) which told him that al-Qaeda was intent on attacking us in the United States (it was not, as Ms. Rice lied, an "historical" document.)

I'm sure the thousands of innocent dead or maimed or traumatized Iraqis really appreciate Mr. Bush bringing an illegal war to their country so that they could have freedom. Bush and the rest of his administration repeatedly claimed that Hussein was connected to 9/11 (though Bush now denies it; thank science for video). Bush lied to us, to the world, and to the soldiers he sent to die for his war of convenience.

I don't want, as you claim, instant gratification and results. I want a president who doesn't lie, who doesn't shift the blame for his disasterous presidency to all but himself, and who doesn't destroy our moral and economic standing in the world, thus making us less safe.

I just wish that the Iraqi reporter had stepped in something unpleasant before throwing his shoes.

Yeah, that'll work....................Florida needs Jeb like W needs another pair of shoes.

and ya know what Richard, they are scumbags...Read the facts, oh wait, right wing nuts don't believe in facts...They believe in fear mongoring dictators (that's what Bush is/was) that want US citizens to fall in line using scare tactics as their method.

Ronald Reagon once cringed at the idea of having to find GW (who he referred to as a deadbeat, and not the politically motivated son [Jeb[) a job. Here is the direct quote from Reagan while trying to find W a job, "A moment I've been dreading. George (referring to G, Sr) brought his n'er-do-well son around this morning and asked me to find the kid a job. Not the political one who lives in Florida; the one who hangs around here all the time looking shiftless. This so-called kid is already almost 40 and has never had a real job. Maybe I'll call Kinsley over at the new republica and see if they'll hire him as a contributing editor or something. That looks like easy work."

The quote was taken from the Regan Diaries....Look it up if you care to. Oh wait no, this is factual, right wingers don't believe in that, lol...

Most people do not realize what Jeb Bush did to Florida. Bushes first, unqualified Cronies second mentality will serve the people of Florida. Most of JEB BUSHE'S "really bad ideas" where secretely stopped by those around him before he imbarrased himself and revealed his ignorance of the constitutuion. George and Jeb have the same M.O.!!!

To the Bushes the constitution is just an impediment to get around in order to get what they want, forget serving for the public good. Just name one thing George has done for (not to) the American people.
They are all a bunch of Carpet baggers!

get lost you crooks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think this guy jsk from Florida is actually code name for someone else. jsk from Florida has another moniker. Karl Rove!!!!aahhahhhhahhhharrrrgggghhh save us!!!!!

NO MORE BUSHES ON THE PUBLIC PAYROLL EVER AGAIN!!!!!!

Consider the source!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.I GIVE,UNCLE,TAPING OUT, NO MAS, I'LL EVEN TEA BAG A BEAR TRAP. JUST NO MORE BUSHES.

OH GOD NO!

Bush needs to have another shoe thrown at him from suggesting such a thing.

jsk from Florida - Oh dear, if you honestly believe in any history book that the legacy of GW will speak of any success, you are completely nuts.

Here's your comment, "However, that doesn't negate the fact that no one has dared to attack our country since he has lead the charge on spreading freedom, hope, and democracy across the world. "

Ok–Remember buddy, the attack happened on his watch, therefore he was the president when our country was attacked, ignoring the threat completely.

Also, he has done what, lead the charge on spreading hope and democracy across the world. HAHAHA! Right, talk to any Iraqi, African, or Middle Eastern person and they will tell you about the hope and democracy that is being spread. I never figured Americans could still be as delusional as jsk from Florida.

The rest of the world hates us b/c of this man. There isn't hope and democracy in Iraq, there is a bloody civil war which I'm sorry to say Sadaam had under control. I'll never say Sadaam was a good person or should have been running a country, but he had that country in order. Iraq will not see order for tens of years. Geez, thanks GW for ruining a countries infrastructure and causing hardship throughout the land. What democracy and hope you have brought...LOL...Republicans are so smart! what a joke...

@ Virginia

Really? What's do you already have to complain about with respect to Obama...other than losing horrifically in the election to his brilliant, inspiring, history-making campaign and getting told by the vast majority of the American public that your nasty, racist, sexist, xenophobic party can take a long walk off a short pier? But yeah, other than that, name one thing legitimate that you have to complain about without fabricating conspiracy theories. Ready? Go.

"I haven’t talked to my dad about whether or not he wants Jeb to run."

George needs to talk to Dad to see if Jeb should run for Senate.

Daddy's boys...

NO MORE BUSH. If he wins a senate seat, his career will end there.

NO MORE BUSHES!!

jsk from Florida, you probably were living in Pluto all these years. And remember, we had the worse attack under Bush. Ask Iraquis about the thosands of dead for the 'american' freedom (yeah right!), ask other countries if they fill safer with Bush, but what happen to other is probably non of your concern. Jeb is another person I give you that.

PALIN / JEB 2012

Jeb Bush may well be a good guy. He got high marks from the folks in FL. BUT... I have had more than enough of the BUSH name to last me several lifetimes.
Sorry, Jeb but your brother forever sullied your name. He really stunk it up.
I am a REAL American and the Bush family needs to just go away and pray EX President Bush does not finish in the jail cell he so richly deserves.

No more bushes not even in my yard.

the younger BUSH should have been president. JORGE BUSH was never qualified.

Oh God please, not another one.

I rather see Palin run for the spot than Jeb Bush.

Haven't we seen enough of the Bushes?

I live in Florida and am a state employee. If Jeb runs for senate and wins, I'm moving to Canada.

He is devious and he rigged the Florida election, which is what got Bush in office in the first place.

Jeb should be big enough to make his own decision. All I can say is that I would like at least one election cycle where there is no Bush leaving office or running for office or in office.

Amozonaklen:

"We are tired of the Bushes, Please please in the name of God, we want peace in the senate and in America."

Many of us are tired of the Clinton's, too. I would be happy to see an agreement that no other Bushes run for office or have a key role in an administration if we can get the same arrangement for the Clinton's. Sadly, its too late.

I hope he runs. Only after Jeb is defeated in a landslide will W. fully realize the level to which he has tarnished the Bush name. A shoe to the face apparently didn't do it, nor has the sound defeat of his party in the recent election. Try Bush and his entire lot of cronies with treason.

Now this would be seat bought for real!!

Yes! Floridians please vote Mr. Jeb Bush in. He could be our 45th president.

No more Bush.....

No just go away..no more Bush of any size or shape. They all suffer from stupidity

People in Florida love Jeb????!!!!! Excuse me...I live in Florida. Yeah, he was fine after the hurricanes, but that's about all you can say for him. He did NOTHING for this state except to allow the developers to have free reign. That's why Florida is now one of the top two states in home foreclosures. Yes, perhaps he's not as big a moron as his idiot brother, but for the people of this state he did nothing.

Good luck to the poor Bush clone. Short of him apologizing for the last eight years to MY generation ( for starters) regarding our credit cards which his family has charged TRILLIONS of dollars to.... there is NO WAY any of us with common sense would vote for this corrupt Bush family reject. You guys think Illinois is bad... Remember 2004 anyone???

He will have to have everything "in order" in FL, even then I think it will be doubtful. If Jeb wanted to be pres. he should have run before big bro messed up America beyond recognition and went down as worst US president in history. Actually, voiceing and interest in running now shows Jeb has a severe lack of judgement and in not in touch with the American people. If he were listening to America (70+%) he would lay low and let the memory of the nightmare of the last 8 years fade.

No more Bush family members near Washington D.C. It is in their DNA to screw the country up. They simply cannot help themselves.

as they say in New York, FORGET-ABOUT-IT!!!

The arrogance ... not just from the Bushes but the Clintons ... the Bidens .... anybody who thinks the belong in office just because someone else in their family was in politics.

We're tired of you folks ... don't you get it .... we HATE YOU ... we're tired of you believing that you are imminently qualified for public office. Get off the public payroll, get a real job and create some real value for society.

And just mention two words...

TERRY SCHIAVO

Case closed.

jsk from Florida – Open the vaults of records up in 20 years and Bush's 78% Dissaproval rate as one of the Worst Presidents in US History will still remain. Genocide in Iraq is what is happening ever since the war in 2003 which has killed 1 million Iraquis, injured even more than those killed, displaced 1 million more(Saddam Hussein did not even do half of these numbers but he will always be a genocidal criminal) and destroyed much of the infrastructure in the country and actually made Al Qaeda and its affiliate groups stronger and more popular than ever.

Taliban still has a 72% hold on Afghanistan(on 3 out of 4 highways leading into the capital Kabul imagine that), Bush has let that war drop out of the radar and this gave the Taliban time to grow stronger and regroup. Anthrax scares came from a public employee under this unregulated governments mediocrity. The timetables that Obama originally established for the gradual withdrawal were never official and subject to change if necessary.

Bush & his cabinet has NOT spread democracy, hope or freedom throughout the world, what they have spread is called Imperialism & Pre-emptive war which has always been an Imperialist tactic(since the Romans) to conquer people by force. Do not let they're lying shroud confuse you, they only use war for economic, geopolitical and domestic political benefits & interests.

BeenThereDoneThat guts the rest of your argument with his/her excellent comment. Great job BeenThereDoneThat!

I thought Dynasty was cancelled years ago. So far there have been two very unsuccessful Presidents name Bush. A third wouldn't be any better and not worth the risk to the planet.

Umm jsk in florida...

You must live in a COMPLETELY different state than I! Florida was no better under Bush and certainly worse under Crist...

Where do you live? The Governor's mansion???

Jeb is just another casualty of his brother. Can go nowhere now- which is a tradegy-since he would have made a good Senator or even a good President.

Unfortunately, if he runs, he’ll win. I'm from Florida and I know that he is extremely popular in this State.

I would be one that would not vote for him based on his job performance during his tenure as Governor but there are many here who would.

So, like it or not, here comes another Bush to Washington.....

Jeb may be a pragmatist, he certainly knows how to speak english much better then his brother George, but... there is that small problem with his cheating on his wife that led her to be seen screaming outside the other woman's apartment late one night back in 2000.

Republicans just don't get it. You bible banging wingnuts have done more than enough damage to our country. Anyone who would vote for another bush is into self abuse.

I'd love to see Jeb run for senate...or any Bush run for any office as a Republican, really. Guaranteed Democrat win, even in Florida.

a REAL American

You just don't get it. When Obama gets into office we WON"T have to blame anyone.

KC Bob, there is a real democrat, calling the whole Bush family scumbags, typical democratic speak.

The problem is NOT Jeb, its the bush part

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! EVERYONE TAKE COVER!!! For all those stupid people saying Obama was the Anti Christ, NO THE BUSH"S ARE!!!!!!!!!!

GH did enough damage when he unleashed GW on the people of America. GW's legacy probably ended any political aspirations for Jeb or any other Bush! GH wasn't that good of a president, hence was a one-termer and, GW...I'm not even going to go there! So why would the Georges even imagine that Jeb will be any better and WHO WOULD LISTEN TO EITHER OF THEM ANYWAY? I chuckled about the shoe incident with that Iraqi journalist...he did what many Americans would probably love to do.

Does CNN only appeal to socialists? Lets talk about the slimy Chicago politics and politicians from which Hussein appeared and those union connections, and ACORN and Charlie Rangel and William Jefferson and the the role of the Banking Queen, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd in the mortgage scandal and the Attorney General apparent pardon of Frank Rich. Right now CNN is sitting on the story of Blago and the unions, so it doesn't offend the unions. It will lead back to Hussein, if its ever reported.

Hey CNN – what did I ever do to for constant censorship? Didn't like my comments on Lou's looks or fake politics?

No more Shrubs!

Please stop giving credit to President Bush for 9-11! He was the president for goodness sakes! Would it have happened under a president other than him? No one knows. He and Cheney both admitted that they would have gone to war with Iraq even if there was not a threat of WMD's. Pray for the out-going administration. They need it!

To all the uneducated on this message board, Jeb left office with one of the highest governor approval ratings in the country. People in Florida praised his efforts to connect with minorities, his work rebuilding after hurricanes, his ability to bring business to Florida etc... Jeb is not George. It is too bad for our country that he wasn't the Bush elected as President but do not tie Jeb to George, they are completely different people.

OK OBAMA FANS TAKE YOUR MEDS JUST LIKE YOU ASK ME TO.

IT'S OK TO POST NEGATIVE COMMENTS ABOUT BUSH BUT DON'T

YOU DARE SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THE MESSIAH OBAMA.

GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA IS NOT QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT AND YOU KNOW IT.

WHY DO YOU THINK OBAMA HAS ALL THE CLINTON STAFF HIRED???

ANSWER- SO THEY CAN TEACH OBAMA AND RUN THIS COUNTRY!!!

“I haven’t talked to my dad about whether or not he wants Jeb to run."

Uh, shouldn't that be JEB'S decision? Why do they have to go to "daddy" for approval! Grow up! Make your own decisions!

Elian Gonzalez... enough said.

Memo to the Bush Family: Just Go Away Arleady!

Hooray! Another Bush looking to gain the White House in 2012! Just what this country and the world needs.
Go back under your rock Jeb....

Amazing – you people are miserably cynical. Jeb Bush is NOTHING like his brother. People in Florida love him. He is a pragmatist.

They have to talk to Daddy? Geez!

These guys actually want Jeb to run for President. You have to be kidding me. He was a tyrant down in Florida. I think he thought he was John Wayne with some of the things he did and did not want anyone superceding his power. NO WAY!!!

to a REAL american–I say that this "idiot" as you call us Republicans, will complain about Obama as much as you Obama supporters have complained about Bush. I guarantee you that we will have PLENTY to complain about–already have and Obama isn't even president YET!!

W. was a popular Texas Governor. Look what he has done to this country. War; Suppression of science, liberty and human dignity; destruction of earth environment; Denial of humanity to live on the Earth; destruction of economy; promotion of religious fundamentalism and religious fanatics; bush's love of human suffering.

Jeb may be a popular ex Governor. All Bushes should be sent to jail for just being wasting out air to breath. They have no right to breathe our fresh air. They deserve all the curses and condemnations.

The Bush mindset: Bushes first, cronies second, country a distant third. They cannot conceive that they might be bad for the country. Please not another one of these losers!

We should put the Bushes, Clintons and Kennedys all on a boat and send them packing like the elves in the Lord of the Rings. Enough is enough with the familial dynasty garbage. Wake up people. What's in a name? NOTHING.

ADvice from GWB to Jeb is the kiss of death! If we've all learned one thing these past 8 years, is to do the opposite of whatever GWB advises!

AND regardless of how you feel about Jeb, good or bad, we simply must turn the page on Bush politics....so don't vote for him!

Ah yes, the royal family; the House of Bush is trying to make another restoration. Obviously the illiterate Bush family has never read English history. Have they never heard about the fate of King Charles Stuart I?

There's a stretch of a story for you.... A Bush supporting a Bush.

DUH!!

Why on Earth would we need another Bush? to rise the budget deficit even more beyond $10 trillion like his brother?(after BILL CLINTON erased the deficit in his terms and we actually had a SURPLUS in the budget) to mess up another hurricane crisis like Bush did with Katrina? to ignore intelligence prior to another terrorist attack like Bush did on 9/11? to invade other countries without justifications and cause another 1 million dead civilians and more than 4,000 dead American soldiers? to ignore & refuse Ground Zero volunteers after he promised medical services for them? to send soldiers off into the warzone without body armor or plated armor for their vehicles? to sell out to oil, construction, weapon and health insurance corporations like Bush did?

To betray more CIA agents like Bush did with Valerie Plame? to let the Economy destroy itself with insuficient and inadecuate unregulation, pork barrel spending and wasting money like Bush did? to be the humiliation of this nation around the world? to wiretap the entire nation with the excuse of terrorism like Bush? NO! GO BACK TO THE HOLE YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY CAME FROM! GO BACK TO TEXAS AND NEVER COME BACK! TAKE ALL YOUR RIGHT WING NUT JOBS WITH YOU! You're family has caused more damage to the country than any other in US history!

Ahh the Kiss of Death

@a REAL american: "My question to these idiots is: what are going to do when Obama takes office, then who are you going to blame?"

If you truly don't believe that Bush's entire term in office has been one big cluster f- – -, then just keep in mind that YOU are in the minority. In response to your question, I'm going to blame you and others like you that still see some Americans as "REAL" and some as fake, instead of just seeing them as Americans.

Bush's DARK AGE:

He brought nothing but suffering for humanity. His brother should follow W. into retirement. We do not want another Bush in the national scene for the next 1,000 years.

Personally, I ignore people who have the nerve to lable themselves as REAL Americans. What Is a REAL American? I imagine its a White Republican. Everyone else is a FAKE American, right?

Jeb may have a chance. If Prescott Bush can help fund Hitlers war machine and avoid peing shot for treason and crimes against humanity, I am sure Jeb will find somewhere in this great country where they would elect another Bush. Probably somewhere that relies on our war machine to generate wages.

Bush family=Scumbags

This moron Bush wants a lot of things. NO MORE BUSHES!!!!!!!!!!!

BUSHES are the worst for America, let JEBBBBBBBBBBB do what he can do..............NOTHING!

We are tired of the Bushes, Please please in the name of God, we want peace in the senate and in America.

Sounds like the rest of you are depending your vote on a name rather than on the person and what they stand for/capable of. Go get educated.

If you know anything about the actual person than you realize that his approrval ratings as governor in Florida remained high throughout his term despite what people think of his brother in the Oval office.

Saying no MORE bush is a pretty childish statement considering he's a different person...or do you want to be held accountable for everyone in YOUR family.

Remember everyone, Jeb was a VERY popular govenor in Florida.

No member of this grossly incompetent, arrogant and dangerous family should ever be elected to public office again. It is truly stunning that, despite Shrub's 17% approval rating and the fact that he has destroyed our economy and our standing as an international leader, the Bush dynasty is so out-of-touch that they actually think that Florida voters would elect another Bush. Never vote for another Bush and teach your children never to vote for another Bush and tell them to teach their grandchildren that they should never vote for another Bush!

Who cares? Such promise EIGHT years ago, and all turned to dust and more. So why would we need another BUSH?? All Bushies have done is to destroy our economy, through deregulation, destroyed all goodwill from nations all across the world and have provided us with the world as we know today – an unmitigated disaster. We must send a strong voice that we have had enough of Bushes and their legacies, and remain steadfast in saying "NO".

Jeb Bush left office with high ratings; however, most of the programs he rammed through the Legislature were quickly abolished and/or overturned by the incoming ( and still Republican) administration of Charlie Christ. The scariest part about Jeb is that he's the smart brother. I shudder to think what he'd get us Floridians into. NO NO NO!!

I am a Floridian and there is no way on earth I am voting for Jeb. I'd rather vote for Christ in that position.

NO MORE BUSH!!! NO< NO< NO< !!!!!

You know I hear people constantly bashing the Bush family, my thoughts on it is, when in 20 or so years the sealed records are opened up Bush may well be considered one of our greatest Presidents ever. Remember September 11, 2001, remember the beatings and murders by the Taliban, or how about the genocide in Iraq. Or maybe the anthrax scares. Our microwave generation mindset in America is disturbing, we want instant gratification and results. I will concede Bush's economic policies and times were not the best our country has ever seen. However, that doesn't negate the fact that no one has dared to attack our country since he has lead the charge on spreading freedom, hope, and democracy across the world. I think President Bush had a much more clear picture of what was going on in the name of National Security than those of us he was working to protect. Just as I'm sure PE Obama will be in the same boat as Bush, if you notice since PE Obama's Security briefings has commenced he's not beating the drum so loudly anymore of troop withdrawal on such an excellerated time table, now it's more in the years conversation of withdrawl than in the months time table he was talking in. My point is the President and the PE Obama have a broader picture than you or I so we may want to cut a little slack on their decisions, cause if we had the same info that they have we may just make the same decisions they are.

As for Jeb running for Senate office, Jeb proved he's a man all of his own. If you want to know what he stands for look at his record in Florida, under his governorship we here in Florida experienced some of the most financial stable times of Florida's history. Before you vote for or against someone based on the last name or their race or their gender or their party affiliation, you might want to check out their record and vote on the merits of the person instead.

Yeah – that's all we need. Why can't this family of idiots just go away?

When will the Bush family realize we are not a country run by a dynasty. That is one reason why I didn't vote for Hillary. It's time to put term limits on every political position so these people don't make a self-serving career out their positions.

Haven't we had enough bush for 100 years. All you heard when Hillary was running for president is they didn't want to start a dynasty..well heck fire we had had two bush's that's enough for a while.

No more politicians named Bush, Kennedy, Clinton, Biden, Et al. If we wanted all the relatives to rule, we would have stayed part of England and lived under their monarchy. This nepotism needs to go.

The best will be when Dick Cheney and Sarah Palin come down to Florida to campaign on his behalf. *giggles*

No more dynasties in American politics! Bushes, Doles, Clintons, Kennedys or otherwise. There are too many good, qualified people in this country waiting their turn behind a small handful of anointed families who think they have a God-given right to run everything because of their last names. Enough is enough!

I love How the Medial Promotes IDIOTS to Speak and Run for offices, just like Palin.................whatever.

Jeb can run, but he won't win. From now on when people hear the name Bush they will be remembering what GW did. I would say that the Bush legacy has pretty much died thanks to GW.

I think Jeb would be a great POTUS. Certainly better than Obama or Biden (he is more qualified than both).

When you see that the dems sport candidates like Caroline Kennedy (qualification: Dad was pres); Franken (qualification: we'll get back to you); then a candidate like Jeb Bush is easily more qualified than 99% of the dems out there.

We've had too many Bushes and Kennedys. We don't need either. Now would be a good time to get Jesse Jackson's family out of politics as well, before they get too comfortable.

Thank you but no thank you...just like GM will retire some of their nameplates, for the reasons well know, the Bushes need to retire their last name for good from politics for reasons well know.....fool me once...fool me twice....FOOL ME 3 TIMES, I DON'T THINK SO......

Why does he have to check with his Dad. I would think that Jeb could make up his own mind. Having said that I would hope that the answer is NO. This country can't handle any more of the Bush family trying to run this country.

God Noooo!!!!!!!

God No!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOOOO COMMENT.

THAT NAME SAYS IT ALL!

Oh my GOD!!! We have had ENOUGH of the Bush Family. After Jeb will it be Barney? PLEEEEEZE!!!

Let the shoe throwing begin. GWB should be ashame at the thought the country is so pleased with him that his brother should be a senator. Jeb or no other Bush can cleanup the Bush name, not in this country.

Please!!! NOT ANOTHER SON OF A BUSH!!!

Haven’t we suffered enough?

I truly think that most of the people who come to the ticker just sit around seething and waiting to see the words "Bush", "Cheney", "Palin", or any other Republican politician so they can name-call and let their rage fly like it's a sport.

My question to these idiots is: what are going to do when Obama takes office, then who are you going to blame?

No more Bush – our country can't afford it. We can't afford it economically nor will we be able to maintain any kind of integrity in the eyes of other nations if we allow it.
How can he not realize the stupidity?...oh yeah – not realizing they are stupid is one of the traits that gets stupid people in trouble...
If Jeb is elected, it wil be by the "faith based" groups hoping he will do better than he big brother – thats the problem with faith – it ignores facts in favor of some unfounded belief. If elected, no sympathy for you later when you realize he is an idiot just like his brother. You should have known before (all the facts are there) unless you voted by..."faith".

String him up instead...

You guys are lucky, Georgie Jr. is not "retiring" into a neighborhood near you - he is for me! I just hope he spends more time in Crawford than in Dallas!

Gee...really?

Please, No. Not another Bush! We have had enough of this carpetbagger family. If I were any of them, I would beg out and retire from politics for a number of generations, until the dust settles and the name can clean itself up from corruption and having its hands deep in the pockets of Middle East princes.

Oh, god, not another Bush in national politics. I don't think that all the millions of people who's votes were for naught because of Jeb's "leadership" of Florida in 2000 would be very happy to see him....

Who would vote for Bush number two? I mean come on.

I don't believe this. Haven't we been punished enought?

To use an old Jessee Jackson quote-"Stay out of the bushes!"
Enough!

I hope our 43rd prez campaigns for you as much as possible!

Your going down!!!

Weren't GW and GHW both members of Skull and Bones? Wonder if they are "King Making" again?

Mr Bush i like your reflex , but that does not mean it is ok for Jeb to run.

The USA was founded to get rid of dynastic political families like the Bushes.

Floridians we need to start right now a campaign against another Bush involved in representing Americans. No more Bushes anywhere. Tough luck Jeb.

Let's "shoe" him out also.

I'll move to Florida just so I can vote against him! NO MORE BUSH!

Maybe a size 9 would take care of Jeb?

all we need is another bush in the white house. america wake up, before its to late

YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Bush name is tainted only by the hatemongering left.

President Bush has kept us safe from attack and safe from democrat pandering.......... we need more, not less, of that.

Jeb is certainly a more worthy Senate candidate that Caroline, or Al Franken, or anyone Blago would pick.......

Please, spare us from any more bushes, shrubs, or ornamental ferns. We've had enough.

The American people have had enough of the Bushes. Enough is enough. President have turned this country upside down. I say no more Bushes.

Don't forget the hard-core 15 or so % that will be glad to tell you that the mess we're in is Bill's fault and the nut jobs who STILL think that air-head Palin is qualified for the highest office in the land. They will always be here, sorry to say.

Hey Jeb Bush, what happened to the shadow govt...

Dear GOD spare us from another Bush! WE'VE HAD ENOUGH!!!

What is W smoking. He should know after getting shoes tossed at him, that the Bush name is not very popular.

What! I do think so!

He disgraced the state of Florida in 2000, I don't think they would support him in his efforts. NO ONE will ever forget that election, especially Floridians.

It's time to say goodbye to Bush erra. Bush = Disaster

Look idiots, you won. Get over yourselves. Jeb is not either George.

I cannot think of a worse person for the republicans or any other party for them to run him for president.
I do not care what Florida, I do not think any other state, maybe except Texas would vote for him. Then of course there is Utah and Wyoming.
If I am alive and well and he runs for president I will do all in my power to defeat him. We have had three presidents from Texas and all three have been the worse liars that ever sat in the Whitehouse.
All of them either stated wars on lies or gave Saddam the impression he could retake Kuwait for it was a former province of Iraq.
But when Saddam began to ravage the country and kill the people, Bush one had to get him out or there or face genocide of a country.
We have had two to many Bush's already and we certainly do not need another one.

How does that saying go...?

Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
Fool me three times...

I wonder if Poppy Bush would want him to run. I'm not so sure Jeb would be the willing puppet George is.

Any moron voting for another Bush deserves what they get. Nothing.

Hell no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good DOG. Not another one. No way, no how. I've had just enough of the moronic Bush family to last me ten lifetimes.

OI' Jeb should just slink back under the rock from whence he and his stupid brother came.

This country has suffered enough at the hands of this family. None of them even come close to being "brain surgeon" material and it shows in their positions that they have held in state and national politics.

Sorry Jeb, but you have been "Bush" whacked!

That is fine...

They just won't go away until they have driven this country into the ground.
Kind of like the Steinbrenners and the Yankees.

Who cares what Pretzelboy thinks? Hasn't his family caused ENOUGH damage to this country?

Haven't we had enough of the Bushes? The only good things in the White House for the last 8 years were Laura, Barney an d Miss Beasley. Ok, the cat too. GW has destroyed everyting he can get his hands on, lets not let his idiot brother JEB have a chance to further the legacy.

Please – NO more Bush's.

The father was a horrible president, the son was even worse and jughead (or whatever his name is) is no better.

An about the guy who threw the shoe at our President. While bush is not my kind of leader he is my President. You better be glad i wasn't on the detail.

It would have been a real problem. Like 2:00 outside the cafeteria problem.

To coin a phrase from MCNBS Keith O' " I think the country has been Bushed enough already"

Like father like son like son. I don't think so.

If anybody votes for another bush, they should be committed to a mental hospital. the bushes only get worse with each election.

no more Bushes!!!!

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

THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT US AS A PEOPLE, THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT THEMSELVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was talking to my Dad about running. It is great to see how politics work in our great country. You know you believe you have a sense of entitlement when the response to the question is

"I haven’t talked to my dad about whether or not he wants Jeb to run."

It is not whether you feel you can effectively serve the people of the US, it is whether your parents say it is alright to run.

NuDeal thinks it should be a New Day

It sounds probable that he would lose, right? Yet, Jeb Bush had one of the highest favorability rates among all the governors of the states. He was and still is very well liked down there in Florida. I wouldn't count him out. I mean it is obvious to see how the Democrats would go after him with his name and all, but I think he has a fighting chance. Politics is won and lost by perception. If he comes off as his own man, if he showes people he isn't one of his brothers goons, If he shows people that he is his own man, he very well could win. The Democrats would have to throw a powerhouse at him.

We haven't recovered from having him as governor. That's why we rank in the bottom five in all categories. Education, for example.

The crook that didn't get caught – I hope Florida has learned its lesson of broken promises and dosen't repeat it mistake.

NOOOOOOOOO, no more Bush's for at least 100 years!! It'll take that long or longer to try and get our country back to decency!!

Oh wow I can see it Bush/Palin 2012....God help us all..

Only in Florida. That says alot about Florida.

Nancy Reagan said it best:

Just say NO !!!

America has had enough Bush to last a lifetime.

You've got some nerve Jeb. Your older brother has decimated this country and your chicanery in 2000 allowed him to do it. If you and your family had any decency you all would be apologizing to the American people rather than running for office. To my amazement you left the Governor's Mansion with high approval ratings. That fact doesn't speak highly of Floridians and if they send you to the Senate in 2010 then this state will have truly shown its ignorance. Hopefully it won't happen. With any luck, the Bush dynasty is over...and good riddances.

Florida thought Jeb might have done a decent job until Charlie Crist came along and had to fix a lot of Jeb's messes.

No matter how good Jeb could do, he can never undo the mess left by his family. NO MORE BUSH LEAGUE PRESIDENTS! NO MORE BUSH-WHACKING! We have suffered enough.

I don't think that W's opinions’ will ever matter to anyone within his party or for that matter within any other political party. As for Jeb, he can probably kiss any political aspirations goodbye thanks to W. The “Bush Dynasty” is probably over and it couldn’t be any sooner for America. – Amen!

Bush for senate!

Very interesting eventhough I prefer is brother still his big brother ruined all the bush names no matter where they all came from.

No More Bushes what ever name they come by.....Jeb....Babara....Jenna......and worst of all GEORGE

The Bush name is tainted meat. No one wants them to run their country or state.

Won't these Bushes ever get off of the public dole and get a real job?

MUST THEY LIVE OFF OF THE TAXPAYERS THEIR ENTIRE LIVES??

How nice. What a grand idea. Yep, lets have another Bush in Washington DC.
Can we at least get rid of the current Bush and have a breather before we even think about bringing up the name Bush again.

Umm, I DON'T THINK SO!

2010 is too soon for another Bush to run for office. Perhaps the name is forever sullied in politics. Then again, it is Florida we're talking about...

Oh God please, not another BUSH. Enough Is Enough....

Jeb may be an excellent Senator, but GWB has all but ruined it for me from voting for ANYONE named Bush. And for GWB to recommend anyone is the kiss of death.

Unfortunately, I have no sympathy for this dumb blonde. That's the risk you take for standing next to the Bush(es).

i believe that if abe lincoln could be come a president any one can

Yeah, the name is a problem. Maybe he ought to emulate a very successful candidate . . . use Jeb Hussein Bush!

Either he is trying to salvage the family's name or he is going to try to make the destruction of democracy in the US stick and turn it into a plutocracy permanently.

Jeb is probably the "best" of the bunch, but he still leaves much to be desired. But two Bushes are two too many. Jeb would have to campaign on "I am not really related to those dodos".

However I am sure as long as he runs in some Southern state and yaks about "no taxes" and "family values" and "intelligent design" they'll be stupid enough to fall for it ...

kennedy clinton bush why not

He may have been a popular Governor in Florida, but after the crap his brother has pulled, I think he will have an uphill climb to be elected to the US senate

America shall be Bush free!

America: Never elect another Conservative to any position. Never. Those people have almost destroyed our democracy and our economy. They have proven that they (1) cannot be trusted and (2) don't plan to do what they promise they'll do if elected.

We owe it to our children to wipe Conservatism out completely. It is down, let us kick it until it is dead.

Please not another BUSH!

I hope we never let another BUSH any where near the Government and that goes for the FED, State and Local!!!!

KEEP THEM AWAY!!!

Are we not fed up with the Bushes

These Bushes should leave us alone and go back to where they came froml; THE FOREST.

Yeah !!! if we had prevented the Bushes from occupying the white house, this country would not have probably gone thru such a painful 8 years.

People of Florida, don't give another BUSH the chance to creep over us.
Vote for a REAL human being, not a bush, not even flowers.

No More Bushes in government. We, the people, have had enough of failure.

If Florida were to elect Jeb as their Senator, they would be getting exactly what they deserve. The residents of the sate of Florida are a bunch of hate-filled, hyporcitical, Bible banging bigots. Lets hope the entire state gets washed away in the next big hurricane and takes Bush and the rest of his ilk with it.

I think the US public has had enough of the Bush dynasty.

Jeb is way to arrogant for the senate in any case. I saw how he operated as Govn. in FL. Private dining rooms in the middle of public cafeterias in government buildings is a bit much. Talk about elitist.

Jeb Bush is pretty popular here in Florida. He was elected governor twice by pretty good margins. I would never vote for him, but I could see him getting elected to be Senator.

No!! No more. The only Bushes i want to see in Washington are the ones surrounding the buildings.

He'll run and he'll win. Why? Despite his name, he was a popular governor of the state and people will always vote for someone that they are familiar with..especially if they have a good reputation. Landslide.

I cannot imagine having another Bush in politics. Jeb was a terrible
Governor when I lived in Florida. NO MORE BUSH...

Hasn't anyone in the Bush family learned ANYTHING from what they've done? Stay out of government and stay out of our lives!!

Why on Earth would we need another Bush? to rise the budget deficit even more beyond $10 trillion like his brother?(after BILL CLINTON erased the deficit in his terms and we actually had a SURPLUS in the budget) to mess up another hurricane crisis like Bush did with Katrina? to ignore intelligence prior to another terrorist attack like Bush did on 9/11? to invade other countries without justifications and cause another 1 million dead civilians and more than 4,000 dead American soldiers? to ignore & refuse Ground Zero volunteers after he promised medical services for them? to send soldiers off into the warzone without body armor or plated armor for their vehicles? to sell out to oil, construction, weapon and health insurance corporations like Bush did? to betray more CIA agents like Bush did with Valerie Plame? to let the Economy destroy itself with insuficient and inadecuate unregulation, pork barrel spending and wasting money like Bush did? to be the humiliation of this nation around the world? to wiretap the entire nation with the excuse of terrorism like Bush? NO! GO BACK TO THE HOLE YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY CAME FROM! GO BACK TO TEXAS AND NEVER COME BACK! TAKE ALL YOUR RIGHT WING NUT JOBS WITH YOU! You're family has caused more damage to the country than any other in US history!

Bwahahahaah.....sorry, but you've got to be kidding. Jeb (the vaguely competent Bush brother) lost his chances at continuing his political career right around 2004 when W. was re-elected. The only reason Jeb's career didn't sink down the toilet earlier is because it took about 5 years of W. for the other half of the country to realize what a buffoon W. is.

NO!! Enough of the stupid Bushes...

How many more losers are in this family. Do they think they left some money behind.

NO! No more Bushes!

Will these Bushs' never leave us alone? Go away and stay away

No more Bushes!! No more Bushes!! No more Bushes.

Absolutely no more Bush's in no kind of Office not even the Post Office. We have had enough of them.

Stay out of the BUSHES !!!.

I hope that when Bush leaves, it will mean the end of the Bush family legacy in Washington. I do not know about you but I am not going to take another chance on anybody with the last name of "Bush" every again.

Oh no, sweet Jesus, NO.

NO, NO, A THOUSAND TIMES, NO!

People please stay out of the Bush(es). George W. and his father were enough Bush to last a century. For heaven sake, "Jeb no, don't run. Some people are too stupid to relaize the effect of the Bushes. They have thorns.

Why won't these people just go away?

The world is better offf with the bush family out of office !!!

This country hasn't fixed the mess from the first two Bush's. Lord help us if we get another Bush in office.

Good luck to Jeb. He seems like a decent person, but with the dismall approval rating of his dad and and especially his brother, I think people would feel quite leary about voting for another Bush.

I agreed that he needs to change his name before running.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

dont need him time to get rid of the old names in congress and the whitehouse.

Republicans will vote for him... Remember some republicans actually believe as does John McCain that we are better off today than we were 8 years ago. (When you own about 10 houses and a fleet full of cars, you don't see the issues of the common man).

With that logic in mind, the republicans would vote for Mickey Mouse and in George Walker Bush, they did !!!

Yes they will vote for a Bush. There are a lot of gullible people out there. Some still believe Dubya is actually a good president. It's time to break the Bush, Clinton, and Kennedy hold on politics. Nobama isn't the answer either.

Yeah... Go Jeb !!!

Lets all just throw up.

This is a very bad idea considering people think W. is the smarter of the two brothers.

"Stay out of the Bushes!"
Although, he would have to be better than his older brother. And, as one senator, he can't do nearly as much damage.

ick

Please God, no. PLEASE God...... we pray...... no more Bush influence on this country......

I hope he does not run! Not a trustworthy man.

Does P.E. Obama have any suggestions on the best way to acquire a Senate seat? Oops, this is about Florida...that terribly corrupt state that you liberals keep reminiscing about. Not Illinois, breeding ground of the most admirable politicians that symbolize strong character and and demonstrate good judgement in all of their relationships. Wanted to say something before all you Bush-haters start your rant.

I am sure Jeb would serve us in Florida as he did as Governor. HORRIBLY! You just can't get rid of those Bushes...like roaches immune to RAID.

l don't know anything about Jeb's politics or his leadership abilities so I won't speak to them; however, I can say for certain that no good can come an endorsement from his brother in regards to Jeb's future political ambitions. Especially now.

Time to trim the Bushes.... THis country has had enough of this traitorous family!

His campaign signs should just read say Jeb or John Ellis. Then no one will realize the family connection.

There are plenty of people who would vote for Jeb. Problem is, thanks to the spread of Obama and Blagojevich's Chicago-style politics, we're not voting for Senate seats anymore. We are buying them.

Please Go away we are tired of the Name BUSH!

I would NEVER vote for that idiot, ever!!!

WHY??

Jeb was popular as governor of Florida. He has a chance to win if he runs. Overcoming his brother's legacy is another ball of wax. The president endorsed McCain for the presidency and then was avoided like the plague by McCain. Jeb probably would prefer to distance himself from his brother. President Bush's name is synonomous with failure. Not just your garden variety of failure either. His ineptiutude is of historic proportions. When was the last time you saw a president have to duck shoes thrown at his head? On a farewell tour no less! He started his presidency by having eggs thrown at his limo. He ends it with having a size 10 aiming for his head. Perfect bookends for an imperfect presidency.

I meant to say Retire Jeb and save us all.
No one needs the Bush's.

Now that we have a real leader this all seems like a bad dream.

Agreed. Not in millions years.

Oh Please. Enough with the Bush's already. We've had enough Bush family politicians to last a lift time. Just reture Jeb. Save us all.

Arrrrrrggggghhhhh! Haven't we had ENOUGH of Bush!

We've been "BUSH-WHACKED" already.

JEBEDIAH CAN DO IT.

ALL HE NEEDS IS A NEW NAME &

SOME CHROMOSOMAL RESTRUCTURING.

Don't do it Florida!

No more Bush Please FOREVER

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO. We have already been subjected to too many Bushes......no more.....Just say no!

Why not? If he fails he can't exactly damage the family name any more than it already is. Maybe Dubya can give him a lesson on how to rig an election...

NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sadly for jeb, he will be tarnished by his brother's actions.

No way. Save your money Bush family. We would not vote for you.

Read my lips: NO MORE SHRUBS.

Id vote for Jeb bush, not just because i want to contradict amber, but because he is a fine candidate, and better than any democrat

LOL, OMG, LOL, LOL..................this man lives truly on the banks of DE'NIEL...................................GW pull away, move to higher ground YO, the H20 is rising. LOL, his brother in political office....................how steal it like you did?

Jeb is far better than his brother...however I think he will be hurt toomuch by the name at this point in time. However, he is big in Florida.

WE HAVE HAD SUCH A GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH

BUSH SR. & JR., WE CAN'T WAIT FOR JEBEDIAH.

IF THE AMERICAN VOTER IS STUPID ENOUGH TO

EVER ELECT A BUSH TO ANY PUBLIC OFFICE,

I AM CERTAIN WE WILL GET EXACTLY WHAT WE

DESERVE, RIGHT UP THE OLD GLUTEUS MAXIMUS.

there should be a law disallowing any bush to run for ANY office in this country.

The Bushes should just run out of town.

Brother Jeb is very popular in Florida, something like a 60 percent approval rating (Georgie wished he had those numbers). I think Jeb figures he cannot be President now, so why not go to DC and be a Senator for 30 years...

Please no! I thought we were done with the Bush's and their conservative right wing GOP. They're all liars and cheats, and I want to see those thieves prosecuted! Go away already.

God SAVE us from another one!!!!

Pleeze !! No MORE "BUSHES " we don't need any more idiots in Office, to ruin this country !!! His dad wasn't much of a Prez either !!

Larry
Houston

If Jeb Bush's political career is over, he can thank his no brains brother George W. Bush.

The whole clan is disgusting. Enough already!

They will vote for him in Florida. This is not a national spot; it is only voted on by the people in Florida.

No more Bush! No more Bush! No more Bush!

Do I need to say it again????

If he does run,even with that last name,he should be restricted to staying in the Senate.The prospects of another Bush vying for the White House should have the whole country throwing their shoes.

Wait a minute
“I haven’t talked to my dad about whether or not he wants Jeb to run" what is this a mob? Why does he have to have senior Bush approval.

This country is great thanks to our traditional and conservative leaders such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Ronald Regand, not Jimmy Carter or Barack Obama, as we are not the same as the European oe Middle East nations, and are proud of that. God bless America, based on the solid Biblical foundation/principles.

Oh please.....I'm still Bush-Whacked!!

Let's go Jeb-make it another dynasty for us. Wish I lived in FL so I could vote for you!!! You would be great.

No way, no how! I'm a Floridian and he RUINED our state while he was governor. The only thing he did right was during the hurricanes of 2004. Other than that, our education system is in the toilet thanks to him and his successor, Crist. Our taxes are high, our roads are bad...he was a horrible Governor, and I don't believe Floridians would give him a shot at Washington.

No.

For one thing, our government has been repeatedly destroyed by the Bush presidencies. No more Bushes in government.

For another, Jeb clearly hasn't executed enough prisoners to call himself a Bush. To make things worse, his state still has a public defender system – what is he thinking?!? You are trailing W by about 260 – better abolish that fair trial system and get to the murderin'! Sprint to the finish, not nap to the finish!

HOW CAN A PRESIDENT WITH ZERO CREDITABILITY OFFER UP HIS BROTHER FOR THE SENATE. THIS SOUNDS LIKE COMMUNIST .FROM ONE JERK TO ANOTHER.

NO MORE BUSHES!!!

NO MORE BUSHES!!!!!

OMG please , no more Bushs haven't the wreaked enough havoc on our country?

Sweet. Get them both in DC at the same time so we don't have to travel to two different states to throw our shoes at them.

He better change his name first.....that's all I have to say.

NO ONE is gonna vote for a Bush!
