house republicans are saying absolutely not. this is still an issue, the party basically refuses to budge on. in that context, what do you make of what jeb bush said this week? a couple things. i think jeb bush is clearly testing the waters. sending a message that he is not going to run away from the positions that he s always held. that if he is going to run, he is going to do it by forcefully defending the things that he believes in. and he knows what he s doing. he know where is the party is now. but he also knows that the party really wants to win. you know, i was in new hampshire yesterday, and rand paul was on the program, ted cruz was on the program, mike huckabee was on the program, donald trump was on the program. and he took a shot at yeb bush, saying this isn t love. what are you talking jeb bush, saying this isn t love. what are you talking about? that s out there. multiple speakers also mentioning the common core standards, which jeb bush and his foundation have been ver
