Romney's Not-So-Subtle Parting Shot at Jeb Bush
 




By Carrie Dann
 

Announcing his decision not to run for president Friday, Mitt Romney described his ideal GOP standard-bearer like this:


I believe that one of our next generation of Republican leaders, one who may not be as well known as I am today, one who has not yet taken their message across the country, one who is just getting started, may well emerge as being better able to defeat the Democrat nominee. In fact, I expect and hope that to be the case.


 

 



"Next generation" and "not as well known" certainly stand out in that sentence, as Romney was speaking to a group of former backers ripe for poaching by the camp of GOP establishment favorite Jeb Bush.

For one, it's certainly debatable that Bush - the son of one president and the brother of another - represents a "next generation of Republican leaders." He's been out of elected office for eight years; he's part of the party's most well-known modern political dynasty, and he was talked about as a potential presidential candidate long before this year. And at 61, he's more than a decade older than some of the conservative movement's breakout stars, like Marco Rubio (43), Ted Cruz (44) and Scott Walker (47).

When he Vetoes this bill, And he will, He will finally be on record as obstructing this project that the American people want by an overwhelming majority. The congress is handling this right and should continue putting popular bills on his desk like boarder security should be next! Lets get him on the record now that Pelosi and Reid can't play blocker for him! 

Romney is a Republican, but he is not Conservative. He is a Big Government RINO (as are a surprising number of Mormons!).

I'm not saying he is a "bad" man, but don't expect him to pull out all the stops for a candidate like Cruz or Walker.

Unless our candidate ends up being a member of the Republican Establishment, Mitt will, most probably, not be heard from again during this election cycle.

Obama better veto it or people are going to start calling him a "liar".
