You just have to wonder, if you were to ask one of the 4% why they support Jeb, what exactly would they say they like about him? I’m not talking about the money guys who are giving him millions. We know exactly what they like about him. I’m talking about the tired looking people who fall asleep at his speeches, like the guy with the funny hat. Just curious what they see in him.
A certain number of those asked will offer up Bush in a poll because of the name factor. That’s probably his #1 asset, albeit a very small one.
Might be a name recognition reflex by respondents whose attention span mimics someone in an induced coma.
I'm sick and tired of all these "relatives" trying to cash in politically on their family names. We endured it with the Kennedys and the Roosevelts too. Even Mitt Romney and Al Gore cashed in on their father's political name. There are probably others.
At this point, I don't care if Ronald Reagan's son runs for president. I'm not voting for him. NO MORE relatives of other politicians in the White House, okay?
If anything this election cycle, I want to see Jebbie Bush and Shrillary Clinton utterly and totally destroyed politically this cycle. This should drive a stake through this nonsense for at least a generation or so.
“You just have to wonder, if you were to ask one of the 4% why they support Jeb, what exactly would they say they like about him?”
Most likely they would say that Bush Sr. is a nice guy, Bush Jr. is a nice guys (and they are, I’ve met them both)...so Jeb MUST BE a nice guy.
Good enough for this low-information voter!
...only problem is that as people focus they realize that Jeb is actually offering less than Hillary, and his numbers are showing.
I have NO idea why people like Jeb. My father’s a Republican voter, or so he tells me, but he says that he likes Jeb. Maybe I was just annoyed or tired, but I don’t remember WHY he said so.
Then again, he bought the spin about the PP videos being ‘edited,’ so I suspect that he’s a victim of the MSM spin.
