Speaking at a town hall event in the suburbs of the state capital, the son and brother of presidents was commended by voter Ernst Kastning for not personally attacking his rivals, but also challenged about the tens of millions of dollars spent on television and direct mail advertising against his opponents by his associated super PAC.

"I want to commend you about what thing in your town halls, that you really don't attack the other candidates," the man said, prompting Bush to interject, "I do attack Trump."

They don’t seem to be making much difference, IMO. It’s over for Jeb and he knows it.

Try again Yeb. The correct answer is that you do not have any connection to the pacs. Coordination is illegal for the campaign.

"I've got my big boy pants on."

"Did I mention that I've got my big boy pants on? Well I do, so don't make me say it again. Pants. Big boy pants- that's what I'm wearing. Yep."

In the pocket of his big boy pants is his lucky pocket turtle, and a note from his mommy asking us to play nice with him.
