Suppose the Republicans nominate Jeb Bush, as seems at least plausible. What’s the Clinton message in such a contest? “My husband had a better job creation record than your brother”? She won’t be able to portray him as a candidate who owes everything to his famous last name.
A very bizarre presidential campaign awaits us.
The Democrats need to stop presenting candidates who were never in charge of anything. Are there no Democratic former governors around? A president who used to be a governor makes more sense than a president who was a senator for two minutes.
Of course, we are facing a contest between two people who are only known to us because they once stood next to someone who actually achieved something. And that’s just boring.
