Why would he care? He already said he was going to try to go around the base to win the nomination anyway. So this is no surprise.

Is there anyone that can give any reason why they would back Jeb!?

I mean, Trump, Cruz, Paul...people at least can articulate reasons why they back them. But I have yet to hear anyone give any reason why they would back Jeb

"Hell if I know," Bush replied. "I don't really care."

Let us list some reasons:

Fertile illegals.
Open borders,
Common Core,
Amnesty for illegals,
Hey John McCain, how can I win the nomination without having to pander to those wacko-bird conservatives?
Family name is Bush,
Jeb!
Jeb can fit it

I believe he still thinks the Party will put the fix in for him...and if that were to happen... we are all out the door.

"Hell if I know," Bush replied. "I don't really care."

Ironically, this is a large part of the reason.

I cannot think of single reason to back Jeb B. Some do give high marks to his record as governor. I also cannot think of a single reason to back M. Rubio except to give Hillary a weak opponent. Rubio has accomplished nothing except push for amnesty.

Sorry Jeb. You are in at EXACTLY the wrong time. History has passed you by.

Imagine Its 1793 in France, and you’re a member of the Bourbon Family, campaigning for a seat in Robespierre’s new Legislative Assembly.

NOT going to happen....

“Mom, do I HAFTA go out there and get beat up by those bullies again?”

“Jeb, do I have to fight ALL your battles for you? Now get right back out there.”

Whining is so unattractive.

Jeb figured he could lose the nomination to win the general election.

Looks like he won’t be around for either one of them.

Jeb Bush in remake of Blade Runner.

Holden: You’re in a desert, walking along in the sand when all of the sudden...

Jeb: Is this the test now?

Holden: Yes. You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down...

Jeb: What one?

Holden: What?

Jeb: What desert?

Holden: It doesn’t make any difference what desert, it’s completely hypothetical.

Jeb: But how come I’d be there?

Holden: Maybe you’re fed up, maybe you want to be by yourself, who knows? You look down and you see a tortoise, Jeb, it’s crawling toward you...

Jeb: Tortoise? What’s that?

Holden: Know what a turtle is?

Jeb: Of course.

Holden: Same thing.

Leon: I’ve got turtles in my pocket, little ones. [pause] I can give you one.

Holden: You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back Jeb.

Jeb: Do you make up these questions, Mr. Holden, or do they write them down for you?

Holden: The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun beating its legs trying to turn itself over but it can’t, not without your help, but you’re not helping.

Jeb: What do you mean I’m not helping?

Holden: I mean, you’re not helping. Why is that Jeb? [pause] They’re just questions, Jeb. In answer to your query, they’re written down for me. It’s a test, designed to provoke an emotional response. [pause] Shall we continue? Describe in single words, only the good things that come in to your mind about: your mother.

Jeb: My mother?

Holden: Yeah.

Jeb: Let me tell you about my mother. [shot fired]

Square root of a negative one is an imaginary number. Common Core Bush may have difficulty with the concept.

Jeb’s comment tells me .. he never wanted to run in the first place. And, I’m glad to see he’s finally resigned to the FACTS.

I read that as Common Core Meth. That couldn’t help him, either.

"It's cold outside but it could be worse. At least the temperature is still higher than Jeb's poll number."
