In a whispering campaign not ready to go public, some senior Republicans are so anxious about the state of the GOP race they are actually considering the unheard of: a scenario that would lead to another candidate entering the Republican primary race, and potentially an open convention.

I could see Jeb as a running mate for anyone but Paul. At this stage, the GOP probably wants to narrow the field, rather than expand it. Crazier things have happened though, so I'll keep an eye out for future developments.

this does not explain the WH visit.
Obama is a Democrat.
So I doubt a Bush would take
a backseat to anybody.

Former Presidents have a relationship with any sitting President regardless of party affiliation. Jeb may just be accompanying his father to the dinner, and tagged along for the White House visit. After all, GHWB is 85... Jeb may be caring for his father, and accompanying him in his travels as loving children do for their aging parents.

you don't fly 2,000 miles just to pop
in and say hello.
this had a purpose

Yes, the article said GHWB was in Washington for a dinner. Perhaps Carlyle Group? Maybe Jeb is going to succeed his father's role with the Carlyle Group, and the POTUS is privy to that information.
And I'd suffice to say Paul is out.

yes it's possible
but couldn't that info be shared by
private fax ???
I mean when you put these 2 stories
together: the whispers of a brokered
convention and then the same person's
name dropped then shows up at the WH
is pretty compelling wouldn't you say ???

A traitor to your own people, how does it feel?

I think it's equally plausible that GHWB might have accumulating health problems, and this may be the last time he sets foot in the White House.

Actually, those who still buy into this broken two party system are the real traitors.
Keep on voting for crooks and they'll keep on piling it on!
