Jeb Bush...would the Tea Party vote for him?

Bush would ignite more excitement than rubio, paul, or any other republican candidate out there, IMO.
But would the Tea Party vote for him?

He would carry Florida which is more than McCain and Romney have been able to accomplish.
Jeb was an outstanding Governor in Florida and the Florida GOP has been begging him to run for the Senate since he termed out. He is still very popular here and well respected. He has spent his recent years being very involved in Education reforms.
His advantage over all other candidates is that he has the Bush family political machine at his disposal. It is the only legitimate political organization that can give Hillary Clinton a run.
I really think that Jeb Bush is the only person who has a legitimate shot at beating Clinton in 2016. The Tea Party had better realize this and start supporting a candidate who can win and no be spoilers yet again.
Just my $ 0.02 on this issue.

The Tea Party would hate him in the primary and begrudgingly vote for him in the general. They'd probably like him a little more than Romney, but not much. The difference between Jeb and Romney, is that independents will hate Jeb thanks to his last name. Combine independents with Tea Party apathy, but with the possibility of taking Florida, and you have a setup for a very close loss electorally, but a blood bath population wise.

No, just another progressive RINO.

Bush is a nice man...but nowhere near what will be required to face down the AUTHORITARIAN SOCIALIST rogues like the Obama machine.
I want to see somebody up on that stage that will virtually DISMEMEBER the whole Authoritarian Statist MSM meme and bring out the whole Conservative base. They ought to shame and ACCUSE the Dems straight up of crashing both healthcare and the economy...and give a DIRE WARNING of what is right ahead if the debt-sponsored spending isn't shut down...and promise to take the chains off this Cloward-Piven economy.
And that aint Bush. He's a wuss!
Bush ain't that guy.

Jeb is the same as GWB on the left-right scale.
He's a better speaker than his brother. Both were governors of large states and did very well.
But he is certainly not a 'shrink govt' guy.

Nope. I've had enough of ruling families.

I don't know about the Tea Party, but I doubt I would. I'm tired of voting against people, and not voting for someone. What difference would it make between him, some other "mainstream" Republican and any Dem that gets the nod on their side? Would anything really change?

Left and right, I'm sick of the dynastic Presidential Politics.
Since I've been eligible to vote, it's been:
George, son of President vs Al, son of US Senator
George, son of President vs John, son of US Foreign Service Office and husband of fortune holder
John, son and grandson of US Navy Admirals vs Barack, created in NWO test tube
Mitt, son of Governor vs Barack, created in NWO test tube
Now Jeb, son of US President vs HIllary, wife of US President?
Even the GOP dark horse is an outsider US congressman, son of... an outsider US congressman.
I'll be deeply disappointed if Hillary and Bush are the options. Assuming the winner of that election goes on to win reelection, we're looking at 28 of the past 36 years with either a Bush or a Clinton in the WH... basically since I've been able to understand politics. And I'm getting old. Insane. Are we trying to mirror our 'democracy' after Bangladesh, where two families pass the baton back and forth every five years or so?
And to break this inertia, does it take a candidate like Obama, whose campaign and candidacy had a lot of gimmicky qualities? Or from the other side, the hunting hockey mom Sarah Palin? Dear God.

Don't know. But as a liberal, I would consider Jeb Bush for president. Much more presidential than his brother. He's the one that the Bush elder wished had run for president rather than the oldest problem child whose fraternity buddies helped into being Texas governor. He was a puppet. Jeb would never let that happen.
