Jeb Bush complains that the political media have not treated Donald Trump as a serious candidate. They have not dissected Trump's eclectic stances, which, a new Bush ad contends, show the populist as a fake conservative.
Start with that new Bush ad, titled "The Real Donald Trump."
The ad opens with Trump on TV saying: "I lived in New York City, in Manhattan, all my life, OK? So, you know, my views are a little bit different than if I lived in Iowa."
Trump is from New York. Who knew? That's the home of rich, snotty liberals. Ergo, Trump must be a liberal, or so the serious Bush implies.
When it comes time to raise substantial piles of campaign cash, Jeb seems to like New Yorkers just fine. Indeed, he is a frequent flier to the Manhattan till. Last winter, private equity magnate Henry Kravis threw a fundraiser for Jeb at his Park Avenue spread. The price of admission -- $100,000 a ticket -- raised eyebrows even on Wall Street.

I recently read a book that talked about Prescott Bush and his shady dealings.

Actually... Trump was born in a cotton field and rescued by slaves who cared for him in the home of a wealthy man who adopted the whole group after their plantation was destroyed.

Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today.
I want to be a part of it, New York, New York.
These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it, New York, New York. I wanna wake up, In a city that doesn't sleep.
And find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap.
If I can make it there,
I'll make it anywhere.
It's up to you, New York, New York.

A long way between now and next summer, and Jeb Bush has a lot of money and the establishment behind him (both the Republican and Democrat establishment)... The only thing he lacks is voters. And aren't they kinda critical...???

What is that pic I see from time to time that FReepers post that is from a movie of some actor pointing his finger with a mix of disgust and horror?
It needs to be captioned,
"You...you...you...NEW YORKER!!!!"
Then a pic below of Trump all smiles and thumbs.

You may be right. Long way to go, but it does appear less likely that Jeb will win every day.

Well his Dad, the Connecticut Yankee, ran as a Texas oilman. He had no problem with that.

I wonder if Jeb got the idea watching Pace Picante sauce commercials.
