Jeb Bush turns on the snark (Spartanburg, SC crowd of 200)
Politico ^ | 7/21/15 | ELI STOKOLS

The experienced, accessible and disciplined candidate gets sarcastic in South Carolina.

Jeb Bush said he’d give John Kasich a shout-out from the debate stage if the Ohio governor doesn’t make the cut. He publicly lamented the media’s obsession with Donald Trump. He even mocked the notion that his family lineage means he’s been waiting his whole life to become president.

“It’s not like I’ve been kind of in some test tube waiting for my chance now, the third Bush,” he quipped. “I’ve actually had a life.”

The 200 people who showed up here Tuesday afternoon got a glimpse of a free-wheeling candidate, a snarky, substantive former governor who’s not afraid to think out loud or who gets lost without his talking points.

What a crowd. Makes one wonder just how the heck these polls reflect reality.

200 people. Impressive. /s

Trump and Sanders are drawing 10K+ crowds. In Bush III really oblivious to the comparative difference?

Jeb: “Of all the GOP candidates, I am confident that I would give the best concession speech to Hillary Clinton.”

I’d consider voting for Jed Clampett. He may not have been educated but he was pretty smart.

No way in hell I will vote for ¡YEB!

I don’t know, the Bush family itself think Jeb! would be the best shot at presidency.

Shows you how weird the Bush family is.

200? I’m guessing that at least 194 of them are media and campaign staff. But I repeat myself.

Little Jebby reminds me more and more of Fredo Corleone everyday.

“I can handle things! I’m smart! Not like everybody says... like dumb... I’m smart and I want respect!”

And a horrific death. He could have saved her, but he refused. He is the worst of the candidates. I can’t imagine him winning. But then in 2008 it never occurred to me that the winner would be crazy McCain who talked to himself and often appeared confused and gave nonsense answers.

“I respect the sentiments that people feel when they hear Trump talk,” Bush said. “The problem with Mr. Trump’s language is it’s divisive, it’s ugly, it’s mean-spirited.”

¡Jeb! speaks the language of a P.C. baptized, female college freshman, Leftist loon.

Politics is for big boys, ¡Jeb! Play rough, or go home.

These 200 need to get a life.

Those 200 were probably just paid staffers. Juan has raised over $100 million so far

They need to try something like free hotdogs and they might draw 250.

A life of privilege and being handed achievements and political offices by your daddy's friends.
