Brutal: Jeb Bush Sinks to 35/57 Favorable Rating Among Registered Voters in New CNN Poll

Trump, whom Bush fans everywhere will tell you is unelectable, is at 38/58 favorability among registered voters, essentially identical to Jeb himself. In fact, Trump’s numbers among independents here are slightly better than Jeb’s. He’s at 36/60; Bush is at 30/62. How often do you see a poll, as in the Bush data above, where a candidate’s popularity among Republicans is the inverse of his popularity among indies, not Democrats? What exactly is the argument for Mr. Electable again?

That’s not the only metric where Trump trumps Bush. Unlike Jeb, Trump is at least well liked by parts of the GOP base.

I don’t know, do you mean did Dr Demento introduce Fish Heads? I thought that Saturday Night Live did. I stopped keeping up with Dr Demento in the early 80s.

Jeb could turn things around with enough money -- the problem for him is, there *isn't* enough money. Thanks Helicondelta.

I’m pretty sure the most requested video, or song, on Dr. Demento, was “Fish Heads”.

You are right! However for $5,000,000 I might reconsider my support publicly but privately will still vote no Yeb.

I have yet to meet a single person who names Jeb as their choice. I don’t understand how he’s second behind Trump in all these polls.
****************************************************************************************************
Those polls are dated. Señor Jebbie has been steadily sliding DOWN the polls. He is now a SINGLE DIGIT MIDGET.

Isn’t it telling that it’s never mentioned that Jeb probably has an impossibly low upper limit in the Republican Party? They never mention Terri Schiavo.

Are they polling TX and FL, where any Bush is always a favorite? But no one knows why.

If Trump were the GOP nominee, I’d vote for him. If it were Bush, I’d stay home.

The face of FL and TX is almost frightening here.

Raise your hand if you know even one person who is going to vote for Jeb Bush? I can’t find one.

They hang out in country clubs, board rooms, and backwards milquetoast churches.

I finally found one on Twitter a few days ago. He was your stereotypical GOPe zombie. Needless to say, he wasn’t very popular, LOL.
