BiggerBoat posted:You guys are underestimating Jeb. He's no dumb dumb like his brother and as Florida governors go wasn't a spectacularly horrible governor in a pretty big swing state. Yes, over 10 years ago. Jeb hasn't been politically relevant since Barack Obama was elected Senator, and he's refused to distance himself or disparage his idiot brother's administration in any way. The comparisons will happen--because they are inevitable.

The fact that he's writing a book about his daughter reminds me that the last month of his 2012 primary campaign got complicated when she was hospitalized, ultimately causing him to stop campaigning because he was flying back every other day. It's surprising that she's still alive and that he's thinking of running again anyway.

He probably took it as a sign from god that 2012 wasn't his year to run because Obama was destined to win through idolatrous trickery no matter who the Republicans put up. With Hillary running in 2016, jesus has spoken to Santorum through his daughter's illness and shown him the light, that suffering exists to test humanity and further god's ~mysterious plan~

Nobody whose legal home state is Illinois (I would be shocked if Clinton declared anything but New York) will be on either major ticket. Rauner, Emanuel, and Gutierrez will not be going for either spot on either ticket. It's an open question as to whether Emanuel will even be renominated for his current post.
