I think that pretty much sums up how i feel about voting for another Bush.... In trading and in life you are bound to make mistakes, and i can handle making a mistake one time.... we all make mistakes, we all take losses....

What i try to avoid in trading and in life is making the same mistake twice.... I have already learned the lesson about going back to a stock that has just killed me and trying to hit it again that day..... there is nothing that makes you feel like more of a putz, than getting killed on a trade, and coming back to the exact same goddamn stock again, only to get crushed one more time.... you feel like a complete bozo after....

I can handle missing a trade, i cant handle banging my head against the wall, when i should have known the position was a loser based on previous experience.....

Based on this, I will never vote for another Bush. Period.


Quote from denner:


Unfortunately, I just can't see Jeb overcoming the stigma attached to the family at this point. Eight years of Dubya soured even most card carrying members of the Republican party. I fear that he would spend more time trying to prove that he's NOT his brother, as opposed to exploring better options for running the country.

You're probably right, no pun intended.

Seriously though, don't you think Jeb would be a great candidate?

No he would suck horribly. If another Bush gets elected it will be proof that God hates America and is punishing us for our wickedness.

I think George Bush pretty much summed up my feelings about voting for another Bush when he said....

"There is an old saying in tenesse i know thats in texas that says fool me once shame on.... shame on you.... fool me... we cant get fooled again"




Gotta love those 'bushisms' - although I don't think Jeb would nearly give us as many examples. Pretty smart guy, IMO.

I lived in Florida then.
Florida was a mess when he got out of office.
While he was in office it was a well run state.
A pleasure to live in.
Economy was 1 reason
his competence another.

but, his brother was such a money spending crony loving obama lite.... I do not think I could vote for his brother unless I had to.

Unfortunately, once these pols reach the highest office, they are so bought and paid for, that they can't help but screw things up.

The way the system is set up with campaign financing and the "you scratch my back..." mentality, I don't believe that there is a candidate in the world that would be able to govern effectively.

You are right.

The only one who could pull it off comes to mind, Ron Paul
