Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush won’t confirm he’s a candidate for the next presidential race, but he sounded like a White House hopeful Monday, declaring his party in need of leadership.

“I have a voice, I want to share my beliefs about how the conservative movement and the Republican party can regain its footing, because we’ve lost our way,” he told TODAY’s Matt Lauer.

Bush said he wouldn’t rule out a run in 2016, “but I won’t declare today either.”

Let me guess. Time to dust off the "New Tone" to get the party popular again?

I don't give a rats ass what this Progressive loser has to say about squat. The great news is that there is no way in hell he will ever see the inside of the Oval Office thanks to his brother who is persona non grata in the party. No one will ever vote for another Bush again for even dog catcher.

Do you have any idea how brain-dead the above statement is?

Can anyone show me where anyone other than you and Karl Rove want this guy elected anywhere? Despite conventional wisdom, I don't think he can even win a Senate seat in FL. Hell, exit polls showed the voting public overwhelmingly still blame GWB for out economic ills. That is poison.

1. I think Jeb should run if he wants to.

3. People who say they won't vote for him because of his last name have a screw loose.

---

Why?

Bush I repudiated the Reagan years with his "kindler, gentler" mush. And Bush II was actually LBJ reincarnated.

It's not a stretch to say one's values and character are molded by his familial influence. So - are you saying we should expected something different with a Bush III?

In a country of over 300 million, SURELY we can find a candidate with a surname other than "Bush."

(Jeb) could be an anti-Palin stalking horse...

Sketch-out such a scenario, if you will.

Jeb Bush has indicated that SP doesn't have the 'intellectual capacity' to be President.

I could see Bush using his candidacy as a platform to relentlessly attack candidate Sarah Palin

Much the way Fred Thompson attacked Romney in 2007

It doesn't have to be just Bush either..any combination of candidates could team up to make sure the Palin band-wagon ends up in a ditch.

Of course Palin would have to commit to running first.
