This is the year that sovereignty is the driving issue. And he had already thrown that away before he even started.

He had no chance from the beginning. At least, he had no chance from the moment Trump took that ride down the escalator.


That is so true. And the MSM and GOP do not understand, or refuse to understand it. Different time, different place. In light of yesterday’s events, it will only solidify the feeling.

We already know he is a corrupt IMF puppet like his father and brother. Nothing else needs to be known.

I remember back when the campaigning was starting and Jeb! couldn't break past 20%. The Wise Ones were sure Jeb's numbers would go up as soon as voters got to know him. Well, we got to know him, and he's down to 5%. And still the puppet masters have schemes to steal the nomination for him.

They really are showing what they think of us "little folk".

“even as the nation contends with what he calls ‘serious times that require serious leadership’.”

Jebbie is not a serious candidate. He IS seriously flawed, however.

He was the best governor we’ve had in my lifetime, and he was a great campaigner back then. I’ve noticed that something seems off about him, and I’m not talking about his politics, though I’m not happy about his stance on immigration, in particular. If any of you have seen this ad that is playing repeatedly here in Florida, do you notice how “off” he sounds in the last line? I can’t find the ad, but the last line is something to the effect of “The only way to deal with ISIS, is to defeat them.”

It’s the way he delivers that line - putting the emphasis on the word “to” instead of the word “defeat.” It sounds so weird, and it’s not just this one thing. I’ve noticed that he doesn’t seem nearly as sharp as he was back when he was our governor. I seriously wonder if something is wrong with him.

Sounds like Jebbie needs to re-re-re-re-re-re-re-launch his campaign.

New Hampshire will probably be Jeb’s last stand. Unless he does well there, he will drop out unless a new round of South Carolina and Florida polls offer fresh hope. Above all, Jeb will not want to be humiliated by a decisive loss in Florida.

It doesn’t matter what excellent plans Bush has for America because we know he is lying. We know he will promise the moon then do only those things that are in his own self-interest.

In short, WE DON’T TRUST HIM. He’s a politician. They lie for a living. Their allegiance is to the big donors, no one else.

I think that donor pressure not to harm Rubio will weigh heavily on Jeb, as will a desire not to impair his sons’ political prospects. I think that Jeb will therefore drop out before the Florida primary.

I hope that Jeb drops out before Florida ... so Marco Rubio can get politically creamed by we Florida Tea Party Patriots ...

Speaking of musical instruments, my son just switched to oboe from tenor sax. He did it because the band needed orchestral instruments and no one else wanted to play it.

Independent little shit just like his dad.

I’m working with him on the opening to Spock’s Beard’s - “At the end of the day”. Great progressive rock song.

Did you know?

1. John Kerry served in Viet-Nam
2. Kaschich’s dad was a mailman for 40 years.
3. And Jeb is a former two term gov of fl.

Jeb’s warmongering commercials on Fox and CNN all day today are SO out of tune with the American people. I am laughing while he burns bonfires worth of cash on this nonsense. NO ONE wants a ground war against ISIS. Is he aware it is not 2003?
