... ''He's really the perfect person to do it because he governed successfully for eight years in a swing state, a purple state, as a conservative and left office very popular,'' said Justin Sayfie, a former Bush aide who last year started his own group called ``Rebuild the Party'' ...

''Jeb may be a better spokesman for the Republican Party than Rush Limbaugh, but that's a very low bar,'' quipped Democratic state Sen. Dan Gelber of Miami Beach. ``He wears the right-wing badge very proudly, and as governor he didn't have any appetite for moving the party to the center.''

The new group also includes Republican presidential nominee John McCain, prompting the national Democratic Party to circulate a .. snarky observation that 'things are really humming along when your `rebranding' effort is led by your recently crushed presidential nominee and your discredited party leader's brother'' ...

4. OMG...Whacha gonna do?? Are these guys desperate or What??

The Scorned Party ReGroups to focus on making a "Come back" in 2010, 2012.

President Obama got the Board covered...checkmate in 2 moves....

The Pubs are Queenless and Rookless...its all over...

The Comeback will occur only if the Dems screw it up.

Besides, the Pubs had the Power only to see it misused by W...and ..bingo, lost credibility with those moderates.

No, the Pubs can only dream and reminisce....there is nothing they can do but wait....

a waste of time and efforts....maybe this is only for "show"...like them photo op things they like to do....

5. Jeb's probably used to rebuilding things that Jr. broke.

6. Jeb Bush looks like the most likely candidate to rebuild the Republican Party. IMO the question is

whether the result will be a "New Republican Party" or the "Old Republican Party After Plastic Surgery"?
