Captain,

I saw the following and wanted to add my two bits. Again, your comments here have been well stated and insightful:

"it has been Jeb Bush that has insisted that we support her."

I'm a member of the Sarasota GOP committee which meets every month here in Florida's 13th HoR district, and as a member of the rank and file, I never heard this, and neither did a lot of other people here.

" We have known for a while that she can't get elected here...it just can not happen."

Same thing here. Wish someone had told us. Seems like there's a communications failure there someplace.

"Jeb Bush was among the last to give up on her campaign."

It's just a shame that he put the knife to it as it did. As a long-time admirer of Jeb, this caught me completely by surprise, and negatively. He had to know that saying such was pushing the button labeled "media circus". He might have done things a different way, or maybe it was off the cuff and not thought through.

The main constant in all of these election cycles is the leftmedia "news", both TV and printed. God, they hate Harris. So even one mistake is too many, because those vultures will be pumping something like Jeb's comment for the next six months.

It's unprecidented for politicians of the same party to declare their strong opposition to a primary candidate. Why aren't they letting the normal democratic process take its course? What's to gain by shooting ourselves? I can't understand it. It is the height of stupidity, like tackling our own player.

DUMB!!!

(btw, thanks for the pic)
