The Tory election campaign is off to a farcical beginning. A poster of a road disappearing into the horizon has already been dubbed across social media as a road to nowhere. It could also be a road without end. Worse the claim on it that the deficit has been halved is simply untrue. It can only become true if you change the definition from hard money to percentages of GDP. The fact is that when the Tory led coalition came to power in the wake of the crash in 2010, the annual deficit was running at approximately £150 billion. Now it is about £90 billion. There is no way  90 can become half 150 unless you fiddle the figures. What a dreadful start.

No wonder voters do not trust politicians.

News that Jeb Bush is clearing his schedule so that he can ‘consider’ running for the White House in 2016 comes as no surprise. A Clinton v Bush battle for the Presidency would be a worthy political drama which would capture the attention of the world for sure. Both have to win  their party nominations first. The only credible challenge to Bush would be Chris Christie; for Clinton it would be John Kerry but there is no indication yet that he is even thinking of running.

As previously stated this blog leans to State’s Rights and small Federal government, but is pro universal healthcare and balancing the budget. Whatever the Republicans may say about the economy, it is here their record is weakest. Starting with Reagan the twin deficits of trade and budget grew under under GOP presidencies and shrank under the Democrats. The Bush dynasty is not strong on foreign policy either. Jeb would need to be convincing on both counts.
