Jeb Bush to Meet With 3 Candidates — but Not Donald Trump — Before Florida Primary
NY Times ^ | 3/9/16 | Ashley Parker

Posted on 03/09/2016 11:36:39 AM PST by jimbo123

Jeb Bush, the former governor of Florida who ended his presidential bid after a string of disappointing finishes, is planning to meet with three of the remaining Republican candidates while they’re in Miami for the Republican debate on Thursday night.

Mr. Bush has plans to meet with Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, Gov. John Kasich of Ohio and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, an aide to Mr. Bush confirmed. The list’s glaring omission, of course, was Donald J. Trump.

Then why are you so afraid of it?

Obviously, most of their votes will go to Cruz.

Try telling Mitch McConnell that Ted is establishment, foolish girl.

Perhaps I am cynical but I have sincere doubts that the people who claim to have been for Cruz but switched were ever for Cruz.

It is simply a tactic to make their case seem more real.

Yeah, I liked the guy once but after he blah, blah blah.

Find me one poster who once posted favorably for Ted Cruz and switched to the Don. Just one.

I as was for Cruz and donated to him.

Then I changed to Trump but wanted Cruz as his VP and continued to donate to him.

Then I figured out that Cruz is and has been a globalist.

He is what the GOPe has been feeding conservatives for years now.

A social conservative who is also a globalist. Just like George W Bush.

I changed my view of Cruz not at the last debate, but the one before. it was how he got with Rubio which pissed me off.
Since then I thought maybe I will vote for him, then I saw how Cruz was going with the talking points and the establishment and I will now vote for Trump next week here in FL.
My wife was the same , but my boy who can vote for the first time has always been Trump.

Two other neighbors feel the same and one guy I work with.

These attack AD’s against Trump with all their millions is just pissing people off now.
It is a constant barrage of 3 AD’s in a row from the estbalihsment but different PACs

Depends I guess on who is the better negotiator doesn't it?

LOL! Mitch and the boys are all on board with circling the wagons around Cruz to defeat Trump. Cruz was never an outsider and some of us knew it. Now we all know.

He has plans to meet with them. Do they have plans to meet with him?

It doesn’t look good for Cruz teaming up with the Establishment.

It won’t be long before this gets out to the voters.

Yes Cruz is on fumes at this point. What other primaries does he have a chance at? Not many. He’s toast. That’s why he said he is fine with a brokered convention.

Just Paul Simon. Garfunkel was doing something else by then.

Yes, I expected better from the South for Cruz but it isn’t happening. The North and the West will not be any better for him.

This campaign season is one that will be remembered for a very, very long time.
