Me too. There’s a reason they’re doing this, and it’s not because they’re not ambitious and power-hungry. I think they see a chance at either breaking up the rats’ coalition of identities, or getting a larger share of those so-called “moderate” voters, by making a big show of spitting in the faces of conservatives.

Some hate us, but some are just mistaken... a lot of the GOP E are simply ignorant of what the country is like, what voters really want, etc.

Not buying that for the vast majority. Nobody could look at 2010 or 2014 and not know what's up.

I know you probably don’t want to believe this, because it’s not as fun as thinking conspiratorial and all dark

I don't believe in conspiracies, except the one conspiracy to mock all other conspiracies so that I don't believe in them.

I deal with beltline people all the time, and yes, they are that clueless and that stupid. I’m telling you, it’s a damned inpenetrable bubble.....Damndest thing I’ve ever witnessed.

This works to our advantage, as he won’t disguise himself in the primaries. With Christie also running and siphoning RINO votes, this is the best chance that conservatives have had to win the Republican primary since Reagan.


From your lips to God’s ears! : )

“He has strong feelings on immigration and education that he gets attacked from Republicans for.”

The Tea Party or conservatives are not against education and immigration reform. We are against centralizing education in the Federal government (common core) and we are against open borders and amnesty aspects of Jeb’s “reform.” Jeb is just wrong on about everything.

If you watch about 3-4 episodes of House of Cards on Netflix - you’ll see the bubble. That’s not why Netflix is doing the series of course, but it shows that no one in Washington, not staffers, not reporters, not lobbyists, not members of Congress - media ,anyone know a damned thing, nor do they give a damn, about the rest of the country. The feel of that show is totally true to the feel I get every time I have to slither in and out of that swamp. In Washington, it’s all about Washington, period.

It’s the whole reason for this: www.iCongressNow.com

True.

He has zero chance of becoming POTUS, and he knows that.
But he is a true believer and usefull idiot in socialist/Democrat anti USA principles.

So it is no wonder he is playing at tossing his filthy evil hat into the ring.

His minion, Crist was unable to prevail.
Contrary to popular political/media stressed prevailing beliefs,(not facts) voters do remember.....
