Well we can fix it for old ¡Yeb.
Build a man a fire and he’ll be warm for a day.
Set a man on fire and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life.
Well done
“Fairly or not, many conservatives find in those words an implicit indication that Governor Bush isn’t especially fond of them; that they’re little more than an obstacle he has to overcome on the road to the White House. This, of course, is not necessarily fatal for a Republican presidential candidate. Indeed, both John McCain and Mitt Romney faced similar hurdles prior to earning their party’s nominations. There’s one big difference this time, however: the competition.”
The conservative base not being fond of them wasn’t fatal for President McCain’s and President Romney’s campaigns?
Did I miss something?
Peddling Common Core was the antithesis of conservative education policy. He says it was not meant to ever be run out of DC by the bureaucracy but he never said that until he ran for president.
Jeb has been mush on immigration, mush on every hot button issue that Trump has passionately led with. In fact, Jeb is slow it seems and looking mostly lost in all venues, from the speeches, to the fair, to the nursing home audience.
It’s true. His audiences are all “sleeping”.
Thank you for the reminder. We needed that and clearly it has been buried.
Sorry but Barb and Laura were not prolife. Doubt the daughters were, and Consuella Bush’s stand is unknown.
Why is Jeb’s left hand white in that picture?
“Indeed, both John McCain and Mitt Romney faced similar hurdles prior to earning their party’s nominations.”
And they both lost.
Pro-amnesty, pro-open borders, pro-crony capitalism, pro common core; what’s not to like?
Cruz is my first choice, but if Trump is seeking out advice from Cruz and Jeff Sessions, he’d be very acceptable.
One thing is for sure; our enemies will learn to respect the USA again.
"sorry about your luck" /s
Who is your candidate??
I’m not sold on anyone. I was interested in Cruz, Jindal, and Walker, but no one has sealed the deal. Cruz and Walker have been real disappointments the last few months.
Cruz has a Conservative Review rating of 96%. Unless you are Attila the Hun you would be hard pressed to find a Candidate farther to the right.
So you are saying that you will vote for a RINO, if there is no one to the left of them?
Cruz missed the vote about Loretta Lynch. He signed on to fast-tracking Obama's trade pact. He's playing footsie with a socialist and the media. He's acting all RINOish. I'm just not convinced.
Cruz is about as Conservative as you can get. If you can't be happy with someone who agrees with you 96% of the time, I suggest you avoid marriage and politics.
I would vote for Cruz over Trump. Jindal over Trump. Probably tie between Jindal Cruz as I think they are both rock ribbed conservative.
I would also have no problem voting Trump in the General against any Democrat. He may not be as Conservative as I want, by a long stretch, but he is foremost against PC, and illegal immigration and Trump doesn't do anything half way.
Besides it would be a great show every time he told a reported in a press conference ‘Boy that was a dumb question. You know, you are really dumb.’.
He isn't ? Then why did he talk about banning the Confederate flag? Why did he say we were taunting the poor Muslims? Why did he send a gay activist at his pageant to take out a Christian and promote gay marriage? Why did he say Mexicans are fabulous and hard working. (direct quotes) Why did he start talking spotlessly and refuse to say anything to offend gay activists in an interview. (and they gay activists know it and don't criticize him)
Face it, Trump is very politically correct. Only the media claims otherwise.
"Just good enough" isn't good enough.
No more Bushes, no more Clintons.
As much as I became disgusted with W after his re-election, at least he had a good side. Jeb is just an oaf.
