If Jeb is the nominee, I will either vote 3rd party or I won’t vote at all. Period.

A) I don’t believe Yebbie will be the nominee.

B) If he is, it will be without my vote, and I will not support him.

I’m with Levin. I hate the sniveling sneaky spineless Republican establishment rhinos like Graham, Bush, Boehner, etc more than I hate Hillary.

If the nominee is Jeb Bush I will probably vote for her-these Bushes and Boehner like people disgust me more than anybody.

Bad auto-correct problem in this article. Somehow “traitors” got auto-corrected to “traders”.

The GOP tried that in 2012.

Romney Says He’s Winning — It’s a Bluff
By Jonathan Chait
Follow @jonathanchait

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney gestures beside his wife Ann following the third and final presidential debate with US President Barack Obama at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida, October 22, 2012. The showdown focusing on foreign policy is being held in the crucial toss-up state of Florida just 15 days before the election and promises to be among the most watched 90 minutes of the entire 2012 campaign.

In recent days, the vibe emanating from Mitt Romney’s campaign has grown downright giddy. Despite a lack of any evident positive momentum over the last week — indeed, in the face of a slight decline from its post-Denver high — the Romney camp is suddenly bursting with talk that it will not only win but win handily. (“We’re going to win,” said one of the former Massachusetts governor’s closest advisers. “Seriously, 305 electoral votes.”)

This is a bluff. Romney is carefully attempting to project an atmosphere of momentum, in the hopes of winning positive media coverage and, thus, creating a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Over the last week, Romney’s campaign has orchestrated a series of high-profile gambits in order to feed its momentum narrative. Last week, for instance, Romney’s campaign blared out the news that it was pulling resources out of North Carolina. The battleground was shifting! Romney on the offensive! On closer inspection, it turned out that Romney was shifting exactly one staffer. It is true that Romney leads in North Carolina, and it is probably his most favorable battleground state. But the decision to have a staffer move out of state, with a marching band and sound trucks in tow to spread the news far and wide, signals a deliberate strategy to create a narrative.

“Prediction Markets: Jeb Bush Likely to Beat Donald Trump for 2016”

Wishful thinking or accurate?

There’s a lot of corrupt process in place to hand the nomination to the establishment candidate, even if he doesn’t win the vote. Colorado’s recent maneuver for instance.

Yep, I always go to Al Reuters when I want political advice.
Little Jebbie must be in REAL trouble to need Reuters to prop him up.

Who does Jeb pull from when other Repubs drop out? Who does Trump pull from?

The question is not can Jeb win the nomination. The question is can he win the election. The GOPe had better start dealing with that. Pretty soon, too.

This is total trash on both the Republican and Democratic primaries. It is stricking to see how nuts these “experts” really are.

I have never liked Trump, but the more The Cheap Labor Express does to stop him, the closer I get to shoving him down their throats.
