New If they/he really wanted to be President
He should've lost the last Governor race in Florida and moved up to Washington to "work" with his brother. Then, at the 2004 elections, they could've dropped Cheney and moved him into the VP slot...setting him up to continue policies for 2008.

But I think Jeb is a little smarter than Dubya. (Not much, but a little).

New I'm not sure that would help Jeb
I've been half expecting them to do something like that for quite a while, at least until Bush's popularity tanked recently. Put somebody they want to come after Bush into the VP slot to give them an advantage in 2008.

But I'm not sure that would help Jeb under the best of circumstances. Having Jeb as the VP would look to much like what is was, a planned family succession. Jeb need to look like somebody outside Bush's circle for the election.
