This is a joke...right.

I saw that as well.

Lefties have such a hard time hiding their extreme left-wing bias.

Add to that the fact that as a whole, that group is lacking in the IQ department, and they really have a problem.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

He’s a pro-life moderate.

There is no "moderate" position on abortion.

You're either pro-life, or pro-death.

[informavoracious]

Outrageous!!! No Democrat or Independent or Conservative will EVER vote for another Bush. (I guess that’s why the GOP-e will foist him upon us.

[Insigne123]

Sir, when you say Jeb Bush is better than Mitt, Christie, et al., are speaking as an MSNBC commentator or, perhaps, as the lesser of three RINO’s?

[xzins]

I agree that he’ll be like his brother on amnesty.

However, he’s pro-life was my point. As you recall last primary season, we got down to Romney or anyone else. Bush would’ve been an anyone else at that time.

The GOP has too many open primaries. They own the party processes. They WILL NOT permit a conservative to win their nomination.

I’m not convinced that a mass rebellion at a convention would make a difference to them. I really sense that they just WON’T allow it.

[TheGipperWasRight]

Remember him arguing in favor of amnesty because immigrants were more fertile?

[xzins]

I didn’t say he was moderate on pro-life.

He’s a pro-life moderate, not a moderate pro-lifer.

[xzins]

The less repugnant of 3 rinos....what it boiled down to last election...but we got Romney anyway.

[tennmountainman]

I’ll vote for Hillary twice before I vote for another Bush.

[Free Vulcan]

The media has jumped the shark nuking Christie so early. Jeb Bush isn’t going to take hold among Republicans, and now the field is anybody’s game, opening an opportunity for someone to rise to the top.

Too clever by half. Thanks MSM!

[AdaGray]

The GOP is pissing against the wind. Bush would be a guaranteed loser.

[EBH]

NO DYNASTY

NO BUSH

NO HILLARY

[boycott]

The press told us over and over that John McCain was the only republican that could win in a general election in 2008. They got their wish.

[bmwcyle]

Jeb is POS and no more Bush family members again.

[Darren McCarty]

I'd vote for Christie before Bush.

And prefer neither of the those two.

[RginTN]

Guess they want the GOP to lose. Again.

[GeronL]

Crazy, right? How is that suppose to change my mind?

[GeronL]

Pro-Life is one of the BIG ISSUES, but so is amnesty, drugs and the homo agenda. I am not a one issue voter, but any one issue can turn me off from voting for a candidate

[firebrand]

He lies.

[xzins]

If you want a presidential candidate who is a social, fiscal, and defense conservative, I’m fairly convinced you will have to go outside the republican party.
