Murphy's Law :: SteynOnline

by Mark Steyn   Steyn on America  

As we come to an end of another grim week in politics, two views of how Campaign 2016 is going from Team Bush:

First, the dean of the consultant-industrial complex, the man who gave us Presidents McCain and Romney and is now seeking to make it a hat-trick as head of Bush's SuperPac; Mike Murphy explains why Donald Trump doesn't matter:
He's dead politically, he'll never be president of the
United States, ever. By definition I don't think you can be a
front-runner if you're totally un-electable. I think there's there an
a-priori logic problem in that.
So that's great news for Jeb. Because if you discount the front-runner, and the runner-up to the front-runner, and Cruz and Rubioand whatnot, then the real front-runner is Jeb, who's totally electable even if no actual electors want to elect him. Why is that?
