I don't agree with your summation on Jeb, but your reasoning on why he won't be the 2016 standard bearer for the crazy party does have merit. The rest of you analysis is spot on. If democrats win control of the Senate and House, they can't spend valuable energy fighting each other and come up with balanced legislation that solves the host of problems that still lay before us. If democrats succeed by 2014, republicans are fucked forever unless they nominate such a compelling candidate that they can overcome the democrat's competency advantage and win the White House in 2016.
