Romney/Jeb Bush vs. Obama/Biden

[milhouse24]

Just wondering if a Romney-Jeb ticket would be able to defeat the Obama-Biden ticket? 

Jeb is the big name that can rescue a flailing Romney against Obama.  I don't think any other vp can rescue Romney.

LOL ANOTHER BUSH CAN RESCUE ROMBOT 3000?

HA
HA
HA

Honestly, I think Jeb would hurt the ticket by making Romney look like a half-wit amateur by comparison. Not that he doesn't already look like a half-wit amateur, but the contrast with Jeb makes it more glaring.

Some say that Biden overshadows Obama, but Biden says idiotic things that make Obama look smarter in comparison. 

Jeb might not save Romney, but he clearly wants to be VP, since he hasn't run for any other office since he left the governorship.

If Romney wants to look more like Dukakis, sure thing.

What kind of logic is that?! Lol

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Serious question: What do people see in Jeb Bush?

He's part hispanic.

No he isn't. Yes his wife is Hispanic, but he's as white as George Bush.

Anything that has a "Bush" inside, is unvotable for me.

I love the idea of Jeb on the ticket because I still wish he would run, but I completely agree.  Jeb would make the Rombot look so small it would be sad.  Jeb knows his stuff while Mitt doesn't know what he believes.

His conservative record in Florida.

Conservatives asked the same question about a guy four years removed from the Chicago state senate in 2008.

Yes, I remember. It was a legitimate question then and it's a legitimate question now. Bush has been out of office for over five years (granted, so have all the other candidates except Paul, so that's not uniquely a problem), like it or not he will be perceived as a throwback dynastic scion, and in general he just smacks hugely of 'lack of any better ideas'.

Jeb will do anything but rescue Mitt. He can't win, but adding a Bush to the moderate establishment ticket ensures Obama landslide and maybe even a third party challenge from the right.

I don't think Jeb Bush is a moderate.
In the worse case, he can win some Latino voters and catholic voters away from the Democrats.
