Jeb Bush is an Establishment candidate and that's who Establishment donors want in the White House . However many voters are sick and tired of the good old boy network that locks them out . This country needs a hard turn back to the right or we will become as ineffective as the European Model Obama admires
That's why Trump Cruz and Carson are leading the Republican polls. do I believe they are the best candidates heck no but their telling voters what they want to hear and if the Establishment were responsive they would be reworking their program

The further the Republicans turn to the right. The further the Democrats will turn to the left. That is a road to nowhere. The favorability of both houses of Congress is at rock bottom. What the Freedom Caucus is pushing is more combative inflexible positions on just about everything.
The Republicans will never gain a filibuster proof Senate. This just about guarantees that nothing will get done. How can that be good?
After listening to the Freedom Caucus representative, who in the right mind wants to become Speaker of the House? The Freedom Caucus blames the Senate, but the Senate does work with each other to get things down. The immigration is an example of this.
Trump says that he is a great negotiator, and will get things done. He will have just as much a problem with the Freedom Caucus as Boehner had with them. They want thing their own way, and that will never happen. People in their own party don't want anything to do with them.
