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."

Losers were never winners ... so ...

Losing is a lifestyle and it lasts forever (except when you ask Jesus in)

Jeb can blow through another $33 million.

Shock and awe. More aw shucks, it ain’t goin’ anywhere.

He has too much pride to do the right thing and drop out.

No one would miss him.

They are desperate. And they show their tyrannical thoughts because of it.

I saw Christie in NH whining about Trump yet again today and he actually said something about Trump not being serious enough to “run the country.”

Excuse me? I thought WE ran the country and the president ran the executive branch of our limited federal government based on representation allowed by US.

What an arrogant f’ing pig and GOPe tool.

He can’t quit yet.

That would look bad.

People love an underdog. Jeb ain't no underdog. He's a bum.

How Long Can Jeb Bush Lose?

He's been a loser for almost 63 years.
I don't see him slowing down now.

Common Core math dictates that the road to the nomination is not the one with the most delegates you could be 4th, 5th or even 6th..

Until he gets to the brokered convention and wins? he hopes>> if it does go broker, he does win the nomination. Trump will not get enough majority states to be the nominee.

Which will be win his donors decide that they’d better send their money instead to RINO candidates for congress who’ll block Trump/Cruz from doing what the people want.

Tommy is a big time RINO.

He has enough $ to last a while, but it seems his big donors are getting nervous and looking elsewhere.
