....because nothing says “I’m planning a funeral” more than bringing 90 year old mom out on her walker in a snowstorm.
“While Bush takes selfies with the stragglers, Tom Ridge appears onstage inside.”
That’s got to really EXCITE the crowd.
Ridge was Bush-43’s first choice for VP, at least until someone got to him and told him that he would simply LOSE THE ELECTION if he didn’t pick a conservative (i.e., Cheney). He nearly blew it anyway.
Were they from NH or were they bused in from neighboring states?
I’m originally from NH. Primary campaigns are the biggest winter entertainment around—and they only come round every four years. The excitement grows to a crescendo as the actual voting day nears.
Anyone in the top 5 can draw a crowd in that environment, purely from curiosity, with many locals racking up a count of how many candidates they get to see in person.
Trump, of course, adds a major celebrity draw on top of that. And, Jeb!, as a Bush, is a minor draw by name only.
That said, NH has become a land of the socially liberal/fiscally conservative voter. And other than the libertarian streak in the state, they seldom go for flame throwers. Probably the only way for Bush or Rubio not to come out with Establishment-candidate momentum is for Cruz, somewhat improbably, to eek out a second place there. Still, whoever of the rest of the gang ends up in the top three with Trump and Cruz will be hailed by the media (somewhat rightly) as the new GOPe hope. If it is Rubio, all the talk with be about his ability (however untrue the claim) to “unite” the party. If it is Bush, that mantle of “inevitability”, given name and money, will be the story.
Probably the best of all hopes would be for Christie to muscle his way in front of Rubio, Jeb! nd Kasich, since he’d very likely die by in the SEC primary, without much hope in the rest of the country.
Bush campaign has been “DOA” before he even began....we said “No More Bushes” and that is what we meant...
They used ‘eminent domain’ for their own purposes, and Jeb didn’t want the public to know about that...
Bush was Governor when the 9/11 hijackers came thru Florida and was given Driver Licenses and he knew about it and did nothing about it...
Look what he did to Terry, did he try to save her, NO...
“Oh show the Love” and let the illegal immigrants into our Country he says, just to rape, kill and live off our American ways...he’s an open border guy...
He’s a disgrace and the more I learn about the Bushes, to bad that ‘burning bush’ doesn’t burn down the whole darn family!!!
When a candidate has to beg his audience to applaud, I would think his campaign is over.
If we could just find a shirt like this, but without anything scary (swords, snakes, or cannons), it would be the perfect uniform for Jeb and his supporters.
Go home Yeb! and do all those cool things you’d rather be doing.
The citizens do not want you turning the USA into North Mexico
Something that was never alive can’t die.
The establishment has not given up. Bush has repeatedly guaranteed people at his events that Trump will not be the nominee and that it will be him.
If we have a cartoonist on here, we need to have a drawing ready of Bush as a zombi from Walking Dead for when they try to revive his campaign.
Another example of how the Bushes used eminent domain for their own ideas, but it’s ok for this, as long as your name is Bush or another candidate, but if Trump uses it for his company, then it isn’t right... I thought this was a Free America, when did we change that?
