Jeb Bush raised $250,000 at a Tuesday breakfast in Houston, highlighting deep donor loyalty to his presidential campaign.
Bush's mother, Barbara Bush, and brother Neil headlined the fundraiser at the home of John Havens, a part-owner of the Houston Astros baseball franchise.
About 70 donors attended the fundraiser and Neil Bush gave a short and emotional speech introducing his brother, a source who attended told The Hill. "Jeb spoke, and he didn't need to say much," said a donor who attended the event. "Everyone there is loyal to the family, loyal to Jeb. This is where the true loyalty shows.
"Neil did the introduction. His voice quivered. It was very emotional," the source said.

Weak little bitch.
Blah, blah, blah.
Bush go away.
America needs a president, who will be for American jobs.
I wish somebody would give me $250,000 that they didn’t care where it went.
I could find a nice used Mustang or Camaro and still have most of that money left.
Seems like the Bush family’s genetics are about played out.
Most of it was probably from taxpayer bailout money so they weren’t too concerned about flushing it down the toilet.

Didn’t Neil get in some trouble for something. I don’t remember specifics.

That’s about $3500 per capita. More money than sense.
Wish I knew a few of these so I could talk ‘em out of some bux.
The Savings and Loan scandal, Silverado S&L specifically, I think.
WHO would give this guy a penny - especially when his polls are in low single digits???
