I have oft remarked that if Jeb Bush sticks to his moderate positions he is a true contender for the White House. But today he demonstrated that Jeb is willing to cave in to the same right wing extremist policies that made John McCain deny who he really was. And this cost enormously in elections.
Typically Americans don't elect folks they view as "extremists." For instance Barry Goldwater (too far to the right), or George McGovern (too far to the left). And Jeb Bush for most of his career has demonstrated very moderate electable policies. But today he fell into the righties trap.
This was a good day for Democrats.
