Interesting theory . . .

Why is Jeb Bush not available?

Don't know - you rarely hear of him in the US.

Jeb: wrong religion?
Religious affiliation

In addition to his business, civic and charitable activities, Bush underwent a religious conversion during the early years of his career. At the urging of his wife, a devout Roman Catholic, the Protestant Bush converted to her religion. He and his wife belonged to the Epiphany Catholic Church in Miami for many years. Bush is also a Third Degree Knight of Columbus according to an August 3, 2004 speech his brother, George W. Bush, made at the 122nd Knights of Columbus Convention in Dallas.

I doubt it - Roman Catholics are a group Republicans really long to win.

George W Bush and Pope Benedict XVI have held an intimate meeting in Rome as rumours mounted in Italy that the president may follow in Tony Blair's footsteps and convert to Catholicism.

I contributed here to the Bush for Catholic bit. In all honesty, I don't believe it. Just devilment.

I believe the McCain standing down notion In the same way. A bit of devilment - in the best possible taste. Two steps up from wishful thinking.

I am 75% sure that Obama will win no matter who his opponent is, The young people of America will do their duty and restore the morality of the USA .

@ righthand:

that's probably true, and extremely disappointing. Too bad the young people of America are so ignorant as to do that very same thing.

I disagree with this theory wholeheartedly. McCain has a LOT more support than the cocky Democrats think. November will be an interesting election.
