Is there a good Jeb?

[Brian4Liberty]

We all know about the bad Jeb. That would be the "moderate", big-government, left-leaning, neoconservative (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?450257-Neoconservatives-The-List), crony corporatist RINO named Jeb Bush, who is so well known that most just call him Jeb.

It appears there is another Jeb in town, and that would be Jeb Hensarling. He doesn't seem to be in the pocket of crony corporatists...



The Tricky Politics of Fighting Crony Capitalism

The conservative fight against crony capitalism received a boost last Tuesday, when the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee stood before a Heritage Foundation crowd and became the latest, and perhaps most influential, Republican politician to take specific aim at the Export-Import Bank. Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas) devoted nearly half his speech to articulating the argument against the obscure federal institution that subsidizes American exports, while still making time to rail against the farm bill, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and recent bailouts for GM and Wall Street. As the chairman of the committee responsible for reauthorizing the Export-Import Bank before its charter expires at the end of September, and as a potential contender for the Speakership should John Boehner relinquish the gavel after the midterm elections, Hensarling’s words carry significant weight.

HA! This was similar to my initial reaction, which was, "yes," but his last name is not "Bush."

Stay tuned. If anybody challenges Boehner, it will be Hensarling.

[compromise]

He would be a huge improvement over the likes of Boehner and Cantor.

And he might be taking Cantor's place...


Stunning defeat for Majority Leader Eric Cantor could boost Jeb Hensarling’s ambitions

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor’s stunning defeat tonight in a GOP primary holds several lessons.

And because he was next in line to be Speaker of the House, his ouster means that Dallas Rep. Jeb Hensarling could be in for a promotion. It had already been widely assumed that Speaker John Boehner may call it quits within a year, tired of tangling with tea partiers.

Whether Hensarling would have challenged Cantor, the party’s No. 2 leader, for Speaker was never clear. The Texan, elected in 2002, gave up his post as the party’s No. 4 leader last year to become chairman of the House Financial Services Committee — a perch that comes with lots of attention from deep-pocket donors. He has been widely viewed as a plausible contender for Boehner’s job, having led the Republican Study Committee, a key conservative bloc, before joining the party’s leadership team.

Cantor’s defeat will trigger a leadership scramble that will play out in coming months, and it opens a fresh path for Hensarling’s further ascent.

Nepotism.

Jebby Sanderson.
Don't you go and sully his excellent reputation, now.

Wall Street, K Street and CoC aren't going to let Jeb be majority leader. I'd put my money on McCarthy or someone like him.
