Mitt Romneys exit from the 2016 presidential race sets up a critical challenge for Jeb Bush, top Republicans say: If the former Florida governor can scoop up many of Romneys big donors, he would set himself up as the dominant front-runner in the establishment wing of the party and make life much more difficult for New Jersey Gov.

I voting for Ted Cruz.
If he’s not the nominee, I will write in his name.
I swore after 2012 that I would never vote for another RINO.
Plenty I would guess. Plus fear for his life. Of course the elites are going after the internet to try to keep bad things from being said about people like the Bushes.
Who cares who is drive the Mustang as it going over the cliff.
Something tells me that this is the Bush that will learn directly from the voters what the term “NO MORE BUSHES” really means.
“I voting for Ted Cruz.

well spoken!
If `George III’ really believes conservative voters will “fall into line” for him come `crunch time,’ he’s in for a rude surprise.
Democrat vs. Dem-Lite.
Who cares?
We conservatives won’t go out of our way to sprinkle upon him if he catches fire in the street.
2016: it’s 1856 all over again.
Why can’t these people get it through their thick heads that this country is not electing another Bush, period. Obola won office twice after totally demonizing GWB, and the conservative base will not turn out. Do the math, no way this works, sheesh.
Okies don’t have that option. The Demopublicans keep other candidates off the ballot.
lol@”Jebster”
Jeb can walk on water and feed a thousand or two with a single fish and I still won’t vote for the damned RINO.
Real conservative or go fish.
NO more Bush’s, Clintoons, or any other used up crappola,
