Bush may have gotten his drawl from Texas and his pedigree from Washington, but many of his ideas are coming from California. Though the GOP presidential front-runner made his first trip this week as a candidate to this state, he's had a year-long running engagement with the Stanford University-based Hoover Institution, a collection of battle-toughened conservatives who have emerged as the early core of Mr. Bush's brain trust.
