Dream on jebbites.
I think the only ones that matter are Bush, Walker, Rubio, Cruz, Huck, Santorum and Paul. Minor roles to Perry & Fiorina, Kasich and Jindal if they run. The winner comes from the first list, with potentially a solid 6-15 percent sticking with each candidate down to the wire. The rest potentially split the vote, with Huck and Santorum peeling off potential Cruz votes, and Fiorina capturing some fire with her awesome rhetoric and quick mind. The rest of the also-rans will either bow out or fizzle out before it matters.
Dear Mr. Bush,
Your support for common core, the “acts of love” and governing like LBJ prohibit me from voting for you in good conscience.
3 strikes you’re out!
Had more reason today to listen to the radio than is usual.
It’s clear that the menu being offered you by the media/political establishment is: Clinton, Bush, Rubio, and Walker.
That’s it.
My wife says the same thing as you; I disagree. He’s campaigning as so compassionate, but he did as much as kill her, as I recall it. I’d like to see the media ask the question, so he can demonstrate how compassionate he is.
No he won’t ... neither will Hitlery.
Old man Bush let Bill be president. The agreement was W could be president next. Then Hillary was supposed to follow W. Then Jeb would follow Hillary. But Obama threw a wrench into those plans. (I started to say “monkey wrench” but didn’t want to see racist.)
Now the Clintons say it’s Hillary’s turn because they let Obama go in front of her. The Bushes are saying “It’s not our fault you let Obama stand in for Hillary. We held up our end of the deal now it’s Jeb’s turn.”
That’s my conspiracy theory.
Did Pontius Pilate kill Jesus?
I go to another board, both Republicans and Democrats but I can’t believe people would vote for Jeb. The immigration part is the main deal breaker for me. I guess Dubya is not looking so bad these days.
El Busho Bandito is more suited to being El Presidente of Mexico than POTUS. He speaks Spanish more than English, bowing to his wife who never wanted to become an American citizen. El Jebster is a trans-Mexican. (Following the latest “trans-trends”)
Dirty little secret: the Republicans have entered into an agreement with the Democrats to never, ever raise the issue of massive voter fraud by the dems.
Other FReepers can explain it better, but my understanding this agreement is a written down, permanent, contract.
That's why the issue is never raised on a national level, and it's why the media does not address it (they are fully aware of this agreement).
The left has institutionalized mass voter fraud and the Repubs simply rolled over.
I would not include Huck or Santorum on the list. Neither has a chance of getting the nomination or even a VP pick.
The rest of the names on your list all have either enough money (Bush) or enough grass roots support (Walker, Rubio, Cruz and Paul), to hang in at least until the first actual primary vote in February 2016.
Of course, that could change if any of them really fail in the debates (Perry in 2008).
