Wow! The Washington Post too!

Terrific on-target article. I hope.

Remember that Leslie Gore song, “It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to?”

Jeb! needs an intervention. It’s over. Drop out. As an act of love.

She has an attitude that doesn’t sit right with me. Can’t really explain beyond that.

"He's hijacked my party,"

You ain't seen nothing yet. Wait till he hijacks the country for his own personal gain.

Mexico is Bush country. He should just move there and be done with it.

Oh come’on. Pick pn Yeb all you want but don’t go after his mother.

had come to distrust her

That whole 'mama doesn't want me to run' deal was quickly recognized as an obvious ploy to the observant. The Bushes knew going in that it would be an uphill battle to win without the base; so Barbara was chosen to speak for the electorate, saying no more Bushes, so that when she 'changed her mind', the hope was that she could bring the voters with her, back to supporting Jebito. Didn't work; she lost credibility.

Why not, she let herself get into the arena.

Bush Country is farther west and much farther south.

Jeb, México le está llamando a casa.

[uncitizen]

Jus sayin....i don’t get warm grandma feelings with her....

[ichabod1]

She probably just sits around and watches TV all day.

I’ve never liked that elitist old bag.

Jeb sings “It’s my party, and I’ll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, you would cry too if it happened to you.”

Now stop saying that this very minute! Rush said South Carolina loves Bush and he is never wrong!
