A tired-sounding Jeb Bush apologized to his major financial backers in a brief conference call on Wednesday afternoon, saying he never expected his presidential campaign to end so early, and in such disappointment.

"I'm sorry that it didn't turn out the way that I intended," Mr. Bush said, according to an audio recording of the call. "When I launched the campaign in front of three or four thousand people in Miami, I anticipated a different result."

Gee, running against the conservative base turned out not to be such a hot idea, who would have thought?

“When I launched the campaign in front of three or four thousand people in Miami, I anticipated a different result.”

Yeah, you and the GOPe thought that this would be a walk in the park. Too bad Donald J. Trump came in and crapped all over you and your “campaign.” AMF!
And FWIW, it tickles me to no end to think of all the millions of dollars of rich people’s money he launched into the thunder mug!

Dissing the base, calling illegal immigration an “act of love” and embracing common core can bring your campaign to an end.

Trump is the front-runner because he’s embraced none of those things. And wasting $130 million on an agenda the American people didn’t want is a self-inflicted defeat.

Jeb got a lousy t-shirt to show for his failure. Plus Americans didn’t want another Bush in the White House.
