Having been knocked from his front-runner perch, a fiery Jeb Bush lashed out at Republican rival Donald Trump on Thursday as the former Florida governor fights to energize his stalled campaign and stop the billionaire businessman’s summer surge.
Bush’s name recognition and money—see his recent $100 million-plus fundraising haul—have kept him near the top of the Republican pack, where he has saved his most aggressive criticism for Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton for much of the year. Now slipping in the polls, Bush abruptly changed course over the last 24 hours, following some Republican competitors who acknowledge Trump has become a serious threat that must be dealt with head on.

Usually, BIG Money is smart enough to cut their losses.

Lindseed Graham is planning on giving Bush all of his votes.
Read my lips. I’m not a Bushie!
He’s trying to break away from his last name? He could change it to something like Jeb Gonzales or something. That ought to work.
Is this the GOPe’s version of the movie “The Jazz Singer”? Forgive me if I am wrong with this, but it was the first thing that popped into my head after reading the article and Jeb’s comments, lol. And I know that I should also not mention that movie in respectable company, also lol.
bush is a nice guy but we don’t need a nice guy running the country.
He should change is last name to Clinton.
Well, he put that he was Hispanic on a voter registration form. Why not go all the way?
I think they’re in denial the Wall Street (auto hypnosis - drunken delusion - cocaine clouds) party is winding down.
Wall Street = Neo-Slavers.
Hey Jeb, nobody wants what you are selling. We have had it with reaching across the aisle, working with Democrats, and hiding behind excuses for not fighting for your campaign promises. Although Jeb’s campaign promises are quite difficult to distinguish from Hillary’s. We need a President who has guts. Who will stand up for what he believes, and deliver, regardless of which direction the wind is blowing in the morning.
I’ve voted four (4) times for Bushes. Done with it.
Yep
I voted three times for them.
Also done.
Jeb was put in with the bread and came out with the cakes.
He's only half-baked.
