John Ellis Bush, go home. Take your $100 million campaign kitty and slink back to your country clubs, your yachts, your gated communities, your Chambers of Commerce and your polo matches.
You are not going to be elected president. You are not even going to win the Republican nomination. And you are most certainly not going to win the New Hampshire Republican primary.
John Ellis Bush — I refuse to call him “Jeb” because that’s a good old boy’s name, and John Ellis Bush is the furthest thing in the world from a good old boy. This pampered puke has a not-so-veiled contempt for the people he’s asking to vote for him.
In New Hampshire on Friday he said he has “the grown-up plan” for dealing with the crime wave of illegal immigrants swarming into the U.S.
He wants to legalize them — all of them. Coming into the U.S. illegally — it’s “an act of love.”
Seriously, he said that. It’s his “core belief,” he harrumphed.
Why is Bush running as a Republican? He’s not even a RINO, he’s a Democrat. He wants to follow in the footsteps of Barack Obama and continue the “fundamental transformation” of America. One, two, many Californias.
Do you know a single U.S. citizen who’s for John Ellis Bush? Besides Gov. Charlie Baker, of course.
My radio show is carried on six New Hampshire stations. On Friday, I asked anyone in the Granite State who supports John Ellis Bush to call in. Even a Rick Santorum supporter got through. But not one for John Ellis Bush. Surely a classmate of his from Phillips Andover could have made a pitch for the runt of the litter, but no.
In a recent national poll, only 42 percent of Republicans could imagine ever voting for Bush the Younger. The same poll showed that just 4 percent think he represents the values of the middle class.
Gov. Scott Walker also has been in New Hampshire this weekend. He came on my show, took questions and laughed about the lies the state-run media have been spreading about him in The New York Times and elsewhere. Last week, he was even falsely accused of fathering a “love child” in college, a long-debunked Wisconsin myth that a moonbat blogger recycled without even checking.
“We knew there was Walker Derangement Syndrome in Madison,” the governor said with a chuckle, “but we didn’t realize it would spread so rapidly nationwide.”
This same media that gleefully prints fiction about Walker reveres John Ellis Bush. Because they know, even if he doesn’t, that, to paraphrase Harry S Truman, if you give the people a choice between a Democrat and a Democrat, they’ll vote for the Democrat every time.
John Ellis Bush will get a free ride, right up until the moment he wins the nomination. Then the gloves will come off. Think John McCain in 2008.
But the good news is, he won’t win the GOP nomination. John Ellis Bush — adios, amigo!
“Why is Bush running as a Republican? He’s not even a RINO, he’s a Democrat”
Bingo!
This is the state that gave the US Senate win to Ayotte, who lied her way to victory. Who gave the nomination to Scott Brown, destined to lose as he had no conservative credentials remaining. You'd think the voters would've learned by now.
It's a shame about Scott Brown. He had potential when he surprised everybody by winning the "Kennedy seat" in that special election, but he went over to the dark side and many voters never forgave him.
Just goes to show you again that when a Republican talks of "reaching across the aisle" and "goes along to get along", the result is that the real Democrat gets elected. A lesson people up there never seem to learn.
Reaching across the aisle is OK if there is a democrat you are dealing with.
However reaching across the aisle today means cooperating with socialists and communists and America haters who have taken over the democrat party, and who got elected by running as democrats. -Tom
So true. His proposed candidacy says more about the failure of GOP leadership than it does about Bush. He doesn’t have a chance and never did.
He’s a Democrat in an R jersey like at least half the Senators and at least 75 House members that wear R jerseys.
They are the Republican Party.
The GOP is there to block conservatives, not represent them.
Jebster is this cycle’s designated loser.
Oh, he’ll be nominated using the same playbook that nominated Romney and McCain before him.
Then we will endure months of cajoling, castigating, manipulating, guilting, and all the other devices employed by the FRinos to “get out the vote” for a candidate that sucks.
This one sucks the most and will lose the biggest.
Howie Carr defends Ayotte and Brown.
Romney and Brown ran as anti-amnesty and didn’t have family and other problems that Jeb has.
They also didn’t openly bash conservatives like Jeb does.
