his family's donor base

That, in a nutshell, is exactly what's wrong with Bush as a candidate.

No surprise...and a bigger surprise is yet to come.

Why doesn't his OWN family kick in to fund his campaign

Because it's in their nature to grab everything for themselves?

Jeb is providing one important service for history. He's shining a much-needed negative light on that dynasty.

When you run for president....

you have to be very charismatic...
you have to articulate extremely well...
and you have to show unbelievable amounts of passion...

Conservatives time after time divide their strength, as opposed to liberal democrats that always stand behind their candidate, no matter what. Seems to be a lesson conservatives either do not see or understand.

A losing stance ... over and over. Last time the conservatives won they were so attacked by the medias that it appears they gave up. Can’t stand the press.

Remember when Newt Gingrich. (sp) sorry) was leader of the Senate?

Communists/socialists/”progressives” and welfare addicts will vote for the D candidate. Jeb would get almost zero votes despite all his leftist policies. Conservatives will stay home. . Even the most “loyal” contributor or seeker of high- profit ripoff governmental contracts — won’t “contribute” or pay bribe money to an obvious loser. Bad business

My working theory is that Yeb will be toast after next weeks debate. Trump will make him defend Dubya the whole time. He will look nervous and sweaty as usual and will continue to drop in the polls after. Eventually Barbara Bush will say “enough”.
