Former Florida governor Jeb Bush plans to meet with three of the four remaining Republican presidential candidates today and tomorrow in Miami, according to an aide.
Bush, who until recently was also a presidential contender, plans to meet with Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich, a spokeswoman said. There are no plans for Bush to meet with businessman Donald Trump — no surprise given their acrimonious relationship.

Cruz needs to stay a long way away from Jeb Bush and his machinations with Rubio and Kasich.
If Cruz gets that dirt on him, his political career is over, just like Rubio’s is now finished. Jeb is finished and Kasich also is finished. All of them are spoilers and Cruz needs to stay a long way away from all of it.
They do not understand that or do not care. Their hatred of Trump is going to mess up this country for decades. It is like they took a pill that turned their brain off.
Must be forming their own separate party...THE WIMPS!
best line!
Sounds more like a future foam party in the planning stages!
or that! lol!
Trump is more establishment than Cruz .
Gee Cruz taking a meeting with Jeb Bush. You Cruz people who think Cruz is as pure as the wind driven snow are getting conned. Cruz was never an outsider. He was the fallback...the so called conservative who’s there to sucker people like you into voting Republican again and again and again.
Um yeah okay.
contested convention cutting deals now.
The gopE plan is to force a second vote.
at this point the pundits are recommending candidates SAY “I hear your anger...” (see I feel your pain.)
the implication is say whatever to get elected and then do the gope.
I meant that lots of establishment guys were coming to Cruz, not him to them.
You support a man who funded the Democrat party, called Pat Buchanan a neo-Nazi, was for amnesty at the same time Rubio was, and will hand the election to Hillary in a landslide according to almost all the polls. Bless your heart.
The current rules don’t allow a candidate who didn’t win the majority of delegates in 8 states to compete for the nomination at the convention. I expect that Cruz will have the most delegates by the convention, but not enough to win. He’ll be in the driver’s seat and won’t have to give up too much to secure the win. I also expect Cruz will have tighter control over his delegates while Trump, as someone who has short-changed his ground game, will have been assigned a lot of delegates who are not loyal to him.
Trump has either 6 or 7 at this point. That will not be a problem for him at all.
I expect that Cruz will have the most delegates by the convention
Because Cruz will magically take moderate states when he consistently trails them in every vote? You peddle your great faith and delusion here as analysis. It's not going to happen.
Unbelievable.
Can the Bushes just go away please??
>>I honestly thought that graphic was a sarcastic jab at Cruz’s egomania. He sure likes to take credit for many things he supposedly did.
LOL. I served on an SSBN. If I made a graphic like that for me, it would claim that I won the Cold War.
The cabal of the GOPe candidates to hold meeting with their mentor!
“At some point even the most ardent Cruz supports have to face the music and admit that Cruz is NOT an outsider.”
At some point even the most ardent Trump supports have to face the music and admit that Trump is a New York Democrat.
