Jeb Bush's brother Neil joins Ted Cruz's Republican presidential campaign
Mass Live ^ | 3/9/16 | Shannon Young

Less than one month after his brother Jeb Bush left the Republican presidential contest, Neil Bush announced this week that he's joining U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz's, R-Texas, campaign.

-snip-

Bush, a Houston businessman, defended his decision to get involved in the race, telling Fox News that he's concerned about calls for a contested GOP convention.

He added that he believes Cruz will "crush" Trump in a head-to-head contest.

"It's much more powerful as a unifying force for the Republican Party to have a nominee selected before the convention because you get your messages clarified...at the end of the day when the party unifies in a one-on-one race I just have this instinct and intuition that he cannot survive: Trump will go down," he said.

At this point, Ted does what he’s told. He can’t possibly push a brokered convention without GOP $ and that’s his last hope for the nomination.

Although I can’t believe he’s stupid enough to think he’d have a chance once the establishment got their dream scenario.

I think Ted's lack of any kind of executive experience is beginning to show - Beck, Jeff Roe, Bushies on his finance committe from Jeb's campaign, Neil Bush, unforced errors.

And, like you said, if he really thinks he is going to be the establishment lackey who takes out Trump, he will rewarded with the nomination and funding, he's so smart he's stupid.

I’m sure this is an instance of the Bushes not giving up. They are loaded as well

Irresistible to the husband of a nwo operative and class b bushy

I think Neil and the other Bush finance members, I think there are five, who have moved to Cruz did so for personal revenge. I think they probably hold Trump personally responsible for Jeb's demise. And Crud is just eating it up, basking in all this new found respectability.

You failed to include the illuminati. Sorry, you get a c-.


I use to believe it was all tin foil hat stuff. But then I see GOP leadership was shacked up with rich DEMOCRATS last weekend in Georgia.

Lawyer Ted is playing the same games here he did on TPA. Move the ball down the field and then at the end try some more BS to get the ball over the line.

Surely Jeb can’t be far behind? A Cruz/Bush ticket in the making.

I heard Ted’s ‘Hail Mary’ speech this morning and was pretty turned off.

Telling others to prayerfully consider whether they should stay in... again.

It implies Ted has done so already, and believes he has the answer.

Devine intervention is apparently required.

Cruz now owned lock stock and barrel by the establishment. So much for being severely conservative. LOL!

If your name is not written in the Lamb’s Book of Life from the Foundation of the World, you will burn in the Eternal Lake of Fire.

You can not be saved by Works, even voting for Donald Trump, you can only be saved by Grace through Faith:

Romans 10
8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach):
9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”
12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1100). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.
