How Bad Do You Have To Fail?
This is such an amazing example of internalized affirmative action for rich white guys. The first two Bush presidents think Jeb would be great as president...
How bad do you have to fail, how much damage do you have to do before it gets through one's thick layers of privilege that they are not doing a good job, by any measure?

Maybe the key is that you have to make other rich and powerful people LOOK BAD by their associations with you, like Abramoff did.

Sure. I don't see why Jeb Bush isn't a destined winner. A few more tax cuts. Drill ANWAR. More tax breaks for buying big SUVs. Stop all these insane environmental regulations that cause our gas prices to go up. Start a war with another Muslim country. The American people will be behind him 50.1% and that's all he needs.
