The Bushes are saying Jeb won't run in the next presidential election. Now we all know that members of that family are lying when there lips are moving 😛 therefore I guess we can safely assume Jeb will indeed be running in 2008..?


Elder Bush would like son Jeb to run for president

Tue May 31, 8:08 PM ET

George Bush, the president's father, would like to see another Bush in the White House someday, saying on Tuesday that he would want his son Jeb to run for president when the timing is right.

Florida Governor Jeb Bush has repeatedly said he does not plan to run for president in 2008, trying to dampen speculation that another Bush could be on the next Republican ticket for the White House.

In an interview on CNN's "Larry King Live," former President Bush said he would want Jeb to run for president "someday," but now was not the time.

"The timing's wrong. The main thing is, he doesn't want to do it. Nobody believes that," Bush said.

But he and wife Barbara both said they believed Jeb, 52, did not want to run in the next presidential race.

Bush said he did not have a favorite candidate for the Republican nomination to succeed his son, President Bush.

Barbara Bush said she believed Senator and former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton would be the Democratic nominee in the 2008 presidential race. "I'm not going to vote for her, but I'm betting on her," she said.
 
Of course he would, it would make the legacy of his family one of the greatest/most notorious in the history of the United States.
 
I've said it before and i'll say it again. If Karl Rove jumps on another Bush's minicart and turns it into a giant bandwagon the Dem candidate is not only done, but overdone and ready for the trash.
If Rove can convince half of America that a trained chimp is qualified to run the country, he will do wonders with a real person against a party that has no clue.
 
If the Democratic Party had a Karl Rove they wouldn't listen to him. He'd be marginalized. As he should be.

Rove is a petty criminal dirty trickster. Right up the Bush family's alley. And America 2005 is the culmination of that fetid alliance.

IMO.
 
Isn't Jeb supposed to be the smart Bush brother?

Hopefully, Terri Shiavo will keep Jeb out of the Presidency.

Smart and Bush cannot be used in the same sentence.

Sure they can. George H. W. Bush (the father of the current president) was the youngest pilot in the U.S. Navy when he received his wings during WWII, graduated from Yale, was director of the CIA, and was prudent enough to keep a hands-off policy in effect when the U.S.S.R. crumbled and the Gulf War occured.
