Confusion to him.

When asked to pinpoint where Jeb Bush’s presidential effort began running into trouble, many confidants utter a single word: Dallas RINO.

The author sort of missed the point, so as a public service I helped out.

Jeb would be leading in the polls if his staff hadn’t met in Dallas? Unlikely.

My opinion: Jeb would be leading in the polls if his staff had chosen to run Jeb Bush as the big government liberal democrat that he is.

[blueyon]

Good I hope this means he is out!

[kinsman redeemer]

He’s “Off Course” because he faces the wrong direction.

He’s a RINO!

By the time major party donors gathered in Dallas in late May for a meeting of the Republican Governors Association’s executive roundtable, the overwhelming sentiment was that Jeb Bush was less formidable than many thought he was going to be, according to several participants. Some flatly stated that they did not believe he could win the nomination.

[Servant of the Cross]

Flop Sweat.

It has nothing to do with the awful candidate and his proposed Big Government policies.

No, it's where they chose to meet. SRSLY?! That's the best they could do?! The dog ate his homework.

Jeb is the wrong guy, in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

The media is psychologically incapable of understanding that Republican rank-and-file voters aren't sheep, unlike Dem voters who will vote for whomever because ALL the Dem candidates more or less share the same leftist ideology.

They gleefully report that Republicans are always in-fighting, the conservative base and the establishment. This fight has been going on since the early 1900s and it simply codifies who we are. It's a feature, not a bug, so they have trouble comprehending why can't Republican voters just vote for anybody as long as they got an "R" before their name.

Open, continuous conservative bashing hasn’t helped.

"Jeb would be leading in the polls if his staff hadn’t met in Dallas? Unlikely."

Kennedy would have lived longer if he hadn't visited dallas.

[Godebert]

Jeb Bush should have ran as a democrat.

[hadaclueonce]

Dallas?

Oh,....The TV show.

I get it now....

little slow folks.

[Red_Devil 232]

Jeb ran off course the moment he decided to run! What an idiot!

That right there is all you need to know.

Works for The Cheap Labor Express and Republican candidates they own.

[jimbo123]

Bush lives in a bizarre cocoon. A wife who refuses to speak English. Kids who are/were drunks, brawlers, druggies and stalkers. Gifted board seats paying him millions for not having to do any real work. Surrounded by cheap labor lobbyists and amnesty pimps.

[jocon307]

It seems like his sense of entitlement really got the better of his brain.

Did it really never occur to him that the voter really might not want yet another Bush? Why should there be 3, count ‘em, 3 men a father and 2 sons president in my lifetime of 57 years.

Also, I want to say those cartoons of the candidates are terrible. (I think they go with another article.) I finally figured out most of them, I’m guessing the gal is Hillary and not Carly, and I think the one guy is Christie, but who’s the last guy? I honestly can’t tell if it’s supposed to be Walker or Rubio (who really do not look alike) or some other fellow.
