(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

Columnist Charles Krauthammer said that Jeb Bush “is lagging” and “should not be in single digits” on Friday’s “Special Report” on the Fox News Channel.

During the show’s Friday candidate casino segment where the panelists bet $100 of fictional money on presidential candidates, Krauthammer put $40 on Marco Rubio to win the GOP nomination, $25 on Bush, $20 on Scott Walker, $5 on Ted Cruz and the remaining $10 on wine, women, and song. He explained, “I’m increasing my investment in Rubio. I’m feeling vindicated and somewhat cocky, having been in on the deal very early when he was at 3%, and now he has shot to 13%[continued]

I wonder if any other Democrats are betting on this?

Way way too early.
There will be a whole year of this.
We will be very very very tired of it, long before the convention.

Love this quote by Krauthammer on the current Clinton scandal:

“There isn’t a shred of evidence, because all of the evidence has been shredded”

Krauthammer: Jeb ‘Is Lagging,’ ‘Should Not Be In Single Digits’

On the contrary, Jeb is perfect for single digits. One per hand.

Go ahead, nominate Rubio or Bush, you’ll lose.
Jebster is in single digits because he’s been clear that he cares more about fraudulently documented foreigners than he does the citizens.

I have no idea why anyone wants Rubio.

Fox News is part of the Ministry of Propaganda and will push amnesty candidates.

I would think that Mondale speechwriter Charles Krauthammer would be an ardent Jeb Bush supporter.

He’s right, he shouldn’t be in single digits - he should be in negative digits! You’d think everyone would be sick of Bushes, Clintoons & Obamas by now.

The GOP nomination is usually decided by March, long before many get to vote and long before the convention.

We’ll be tired of the FRino’s berating us to hold our noses from March to November if the RNC runs their playbook like the last two cycles.

He is a Jeb supporter. He also knows a few things. Look for him to go Rubio.

Jeb and Hillary both think they can win with a Rose Garden strategy while other candidates are actually out there campaigning.

There have been many “whiffs” of pro-GOPe comments from the FOX gang lately that cannot be denied. Real disappointing actually. Well, there is a long way to go and I think that this election is going to be driven by a fed-up right wing public. More than most realize. We shall see.

If either one gets the nomination from the Americans who vote in the primary, are you staying home or voting for them?

Yes, there are Democrats on the panel.

Why shouldn’t Jebbie be in single digits? Because the GOP Establishment and their friends in the media declared him the frontrunner?

I always vote, but I don’t vote for liberals, even if they are wearing an R jersey.

Not only is he lagging, he shouldn't be in the race at all.

Jeb would not be in single digits if he would just admit the truth and run for the Democrat nomination. With his big government liberal policies, his support for Amnesty, his support for Obamacare, and his support for a larger FedGov role in every aspect of our lives, plus his youth and enthusiasm, Jeb could crush Hillary among his natural supporters.
