Howard Dean Endorses JEB! for GOP nomination

Stuff It, Howard! I don't need your help to lose.  Karl and I
can do it all on our own, thank you.  I am my OWN man!
Did you think he would endorse anyone else? He wants Hillary to be able to sleep through the campaign and still win.

(Washington Times) - Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean said Friday that former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush will probably win the 2016 GOP presidential nomination, saying Republicans typically end up nominating the more “moderate, mainstream person.”

“Despite Texas and Florida, this is a northeastern family,” Mr. Dean, who ran for president in 2004, said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “His father — he moved to the right when he became Reagan’s vice president, but George Bush was a quintessential patrician Republican — the kind, actually, that my parents liked.”
Jeb’s still got a lot of those mannerisms — I think it’s going to be a fascinating campaign, [because] the Republicans have always tried to do the really conservative thing and they always end up nominating [the] more moderate, mainstream person, which would be Jeb Bush,” Mr. Deansaid. “And they’re going to try it again, and I think Jeb Bush probably wins.”
The former Florida governor has not backed off of his comparatively moderate positions on issues like immigration and Common Core, defending them to potential voters as he travels around and lays the groundwork for a possible presidential run. Read more.
