The only time Jeb is mentioned around here it’s somebody saying how they wish he would just go away.
Reasonable: it’s way, way too early to ‘freak out’.
At this stage Frank Zappa may be re-animated by extraterrestrials and etc....
When Kasich, Christie and Rubio are told to drop out they won’t be splitting the GOPe vote and he’ll move up.
But maybe to just third or fourth place.
They did 'shop him, with LOL-Highlarious results.
I live in Ohio.The general feeling here is that Kasich is governor only because no one else wanted the job.
Lolololol
Why is anyone/everyone falling for this?
Politico is a democratic party organ—they want the democrat Hillary to win in November 2016.
She—if she lasts—can CERTAINLY beat JEB Bush.
She won’t beat Trump.
That’s the sole reason Politico is running this story.
In their little scared (of Trump) hearts, they’re hoping beyond hope it will be another Clinton versus Bush with Clinton winning again.
Oh yeah, it's just these hot, humid, muggy days of summer and all the irritating, afternoon thunderstorms that are causing around 30% of Republicans and conservatives to just act plain irrational this time of year. As soon as the weather cools and the leaves reach their peak of Fall colors, they'll come to their senses and start supporting Jeb.
They'll forget about 30 years of lies about immigration and the deliberate failure to enforce the law, and all the thousands of plants and jobs that left for cheap labor nations, and the two presidents named Bush who are as responsible for all that as anyone who could be named.
It's just those Dog Days of Summer turning all these folks into "crazies". No legitimate issues are bugging these folks. They'll come come to their senses around December or January and get behind Jebbie.
Why do ppl keep saying he is in second place?
Good question. I think it’s silly to follow the polls too closely this early on so I don’t really know what they’re saying. I know that what I see of headlines doesn’t paint a particularly bright picture for Jeb. And then I come across a piece like this that is all rainbows and buttercups and have to laugh.
Caputo and Palmer overlook one important element: the toxic Bush name.
Obama ran against it to get elected — twice.
It is still, maybe even more, toxic than when GW was finishing his last term.
Even Jeb is trying to distance himself by running as Jeb rather than as Jeb Bush or Bush III.
I agree with you
I’ve never seen any like this panic. I’m starting to believe those Illuminati theories.
It’s only a flesh wound.
Yeah, I've seen tons of ads against Hillary by that Super PAC for Jeb. They're really going hard against the Democrats.....
Oh, wait...
Hitlery, as you know, is an ardent supporter of Planned Parenthood--the high priests of abortion and infanticide in modern day America.
Before Trump soared, Bush was on top. But while Trump’s climb has corresponded with Bush's fall, Bush hasn't crashed to earth. Being No. 2 is not necessarily a bad thing, Jeb's allies argue...No, and No. Wrong, and wrong. Next!
Right to Rise, the pro-Bush super PAC sitting on $100 million... the super PAC has its own in-house team of researchers digging into his opponents and could go negative quickly when necessary.Yeah, as if they haven't been doing that since day one. And, uh, Trump is a billionaire. And Cruz has raised over $50 million for his campaign, is sympatico with Trump, and neither of them has the last name "Bush". Next!
No other family in modern America has wielded such political power and had such ties to the GOP establishment and Wall Street, where he reestablished relations after leaving the governor's mansion in 2007. Membership has its privileges. About half of Bush's total $120 million haul came from donors who previously gave to his brother or father...Jeb is pro-amnesty in an anti-amnesty milieu, and clearly it will be difficult (as he has said) coming up with even ONE conservative position on ANYTHING.
4. THE BUSH RECORDYeah, good one. Next!
Though he's now in second place, Bush isn't fending off daily questions about his longterm viability...Jeb's in what, fourth? Fifth? And he's fading out like a bad fart. He HAS no longterm viability.
Partisan Media Shill Alert!
NO. MORE. BUSHs!
