Bush Monarchy Watch for Tuesday, July 11, 2006
Posted by Jill | 11:38 AM
The latest trial balloon:

Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has frequently said he won't run for president in 2008, but he's never ruled out being a running mate.

And he didn't Monday when asked about teaming up with Arizona Sen. John McCain.
"I like Sen. McCain. I think he's a good guy," Bush told reporters after returning from a holiday in Maine with his family.

Bush, 53, would provide some age balance on such a ticket. McCain turns 70 next month.

When prodded about the likelihood of a McCain-Bush ticket, Bush hedged just slightly.
"There's all sorts of time to worry about the 2008 election," he said. Bush is prohibited from seeking a third consecutive term as governor by Florida law.


There's your quid pro quo, folks. McCain gets the endorsement of the Christofascist Zombie Brigade over the unacceptable Rudolph Giuliani in exchange for putting Bush the Youngest in the #2 spot.

If McCain is dumb enough to make yet another Bush scion his running mate, he'd better hire someone to taste his food before he eats it.

And the Democrats ought to stop this bullshit about appealing to evangelicals and start rehearsing how best to hang the corpse of Terri Schiavo around Jebbie's neck -- along with the mug shots and police reports of his children..
