MANCHESTER, N.H. — Do not call Jeb Bush a moderate Republican.
“Why? Why? Why, pray tell?” Bush asked when a questioner characterized him as such Friday. On his way out of a news conference, Bush stopped and turned back. “I have a conservative record, probably the most effective conservative governor,” he said. “I would match my record with anybody that’s thinking about running or any governor of the last 20 years. It’s an I’m-not-kidding conservative record, it’s one of results.”
It wasn’t quite Mitt Romney’s “severely conservative” comment, but perhaps other Republican governors, including Wisconsin’s Scott Walker and New Jersey’s Chris Christie, should consider themselves on notice.

Now we're getting somewhere! It's time for Bush, Walker, Christie, Cruz and Rubio to put their cards on the table so we can see who is really the most conservative.
