How Long Can Jeb Bush Lose?
US News and World Report ^ | 12/29/15 | David Catanese

Posted on 12/29/2015 8:05:46 PM PST by jimbo123

Former Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson says Jeb Bush doesn't need to notch a win until the Feb. 23 Nevada caucuses in order to remain in the 2016 fight for the Republican presidential nomination.

Thompson, who endorsed Bush in early October shortly after his home state governor Scott Walker ended his campaign, argued to U.S. News in an interview that Bush has the organizational muster to sustain losses in the first three nominating states and soldier on.

"He doesn't have to win until he gets to Nevada and Super Tuesday. He's the one person with the ties to the establishment and the organization in every state. There are Bush people in every state, whether it be for the father Bush, the younger Bush or Jeb," Thompson says. "Other candidates have to start showing victories in Iowa and New Hampshire. Bush doesn't have to have that. He's got the luxury he's got enough money to continue advertising. Jeb doesn't have to win the first three states."

How long can Hilarious lose? She’s been a loser since at least 1972 or so when she got fired from the Nixon inquisition and she has more losing years staring her in her prodigious chops.

The consultants surrounding him are feasting. They ply him with a thousand ways it turns around. He likely gets o sane advice. Does he not have one honest friend that tells him he cannot win,,,, no matter what,,,,because of his name alone?
There are other reasons such as being an open borders Bushie.
But his name alone kills any chance.

This is a train wreck.

The thought of Tommy Thompson back in a presidential cabinet is just one more reason not to vote for another Bush.

And that debate Trump challenge was interesting. How in his mind does he think HE merits a one on one instead of Rubio, Cruz, Carson, etc??

Why would one bottom dweller deserve a one on one with the leader? Answer,,,, he truly thinks HE is the anointed candidate.

Tommy Thompson is delusional.

Money can buy a lot of things but popularity and respect ain’t them.

Jeb can continue until March but history is on his side.
