re: #132 EPR-radar

I think an establishment-forced Jeb nomination would break the GOP in two. The base is still upset about McCain and Romney. Anyway, the #2 from 2012 was Santorum, not Jeb.

If the wingnuts can manage to coalesce around someone acceptable to the GOP establishment (e.g., Walker, Rubio, Cruz?) then I would expect the establishment to join in to preserve party unity for a little while longer.

If they nominate a “not conservative enough” candidate and lose again—Man, the 2020 campaign is going to be Ka-RAY-zee!
